Many interpolation methods have been developed for high visual quality, but fail for inability to preserve image structures. Edges carry heavy structural information for detection, determination and classification. Edge-adaptive interpolation approaches become a center of focus. In this paper, performance of four edge-directed interpolation methods comparing with two traditional methods is evaluated on two groups of images. These methods include new edge-directed interpolation (NEDI), edge-guided image interpolation (EGII), iterative curvature-based interpolation (ICBI), directional cubic convolution interpolation (DCCI) and two traditional approaches, bi-linear and bi-cubic. Meanwhile, no parameters are mentioned to measure edge-preserving ability of edge-adaptive interpolation approaches and we proposed two. One evaluates accuracy and the other measures robustness of edge-preservation ability. Performance evaluation is based on six parameters. Objective assessment and visual analysis are illustrated and conclusions are drawn from theoretical backgrounds and practical results.

We propose a novel approach for optical flow estimation , targeted at large displacements with significant oc-clusions. It consists of two steps: i) dense matching by edge-preserving interpolation from a sparse set of matches; ii) variational energy minimization initialized with the dense matches. The sparse-to-dense interpolation relies on an appropriate choice of the distance, namely an edge-aware geodesic distance. This distance is tailored to handle occlusions and motion boundaries -- two common and difficult issues for optical flow computation. We also propose an approximation scheme for the geodesic distance to allow fast computation without loss of performance. Subsequent to the dense interpolation step, standard one-level variational energy minimization is carried out on the dense matches to obtain the final flow estimation. The proposed approach, called Edge-Preserving Interpolation of Correspondences (EpicFlow) is fast and robust to large displacements. It significantly outperforms the state of the art on MPI-Sintel and performs on par on Kitti and Middlebury.
Additive Runge-Kutta methods designed for preserving highly accurate solutions in mixed-precision computation were proposed and analyzed in [8]. These specially designed methods use reduced precision or the implicit computations and full precision fo r the explicit computations. We develop a FORTRAN code to solve a nonlinear system of ordinary differential equations using the mixed precision additive Runge-Kutta (MP-ARK) methods on IBM POWER9 and Intel x86_64 chips. The convergence, accuracy, runtime, and energy consumption of these methods is explored. We show that these MP-ARK methods efficiently produce accurate solutions with significant reductions in runtime (and by extension energy consumption).
Matching surfaces is a challenging 3D Computer Vision problem typically addressed by local features. Although a variety of 3D feature detectors and descriptors has been proposed in literature, they have seldom been proposed together and it is yet not clear how to identify the most effective detector-descriptor pair for a specific application. A promising solution is to leverage machine learning to learn the optimal 3D detector for any given 3D descriptor [15]. In this paper, we report a performance evaluation of the detector-descriptor pairs obtained by learning a paired 3D detector for the most popular 3D descriptors. In particular, we address experimental settings dealing with object recognition and surface registration.

Video frame interpolation can up-convert the frame rate and enhance the video quality. In recent years, although the interpolation performance has achieved great success, image blur usually occurs at the object boundaries owing to the large motion. I t has been a long-standing problem, and has not been addressed yet. In this paper, we propose to reduce the image blur and get the clear shape of objects by preserving the edges in the interpolated frames. To this end, the proposed Edge-Aware Network (EA-Net) integrates the edge information into the frame interpolation task. It follows an end-to-end architecture and can be separated into two stages, emph{i.e.}, edge-guided flow estimation and edge-protected frame synthesis. Specifically, in the flow estimation stage, three edge-aware mechanisms are developed to emphasize the frame edges in estimating flow maps, so that the edge-maps are taken as the auxiliary information to provide more guidance to boost the flow accuracy. In the frame synthesis stage, the flow refinement module is designed to refine the flow map, and the attention module is carried out to adaptively focus on the bidirectional flow maps when synthesizing the intermediate frames. Furthermore, the frame and edge discriminators are adopted to conduct the adversarial training strategy, so as to enhance the reality and clarity of synthesized frames. Experiments on three benchmarks, including Vimeo90k, UCF101 for single-frame interpolation and Adobe240-fps for multi-frame interpolation, have demonstrated the superiority of the proposed EA-Net for the video frame interpolation task.
We present the instance segmentation and the object detection method used by team PFDet for Open Images Challenge 2019. We tackle a massive dataset size, huge class imbalance and federated annotations. Using this method, the team PFDet achieved 3rd a nd 4th place in the instance segmentation and the object detection track, respectively.
