Memorability measures how easily an image is to be memorized after glancing, which may contribute to designing magazine covers, tourism publicity materials, and so forth. Recent works have shed light on the visual features that make generic images, object images or face photographs memorable. However, these methods are not able to effectively predict the memorability of outdoor natural scene images. To overcome this shortcoming of previous works, in this paper, we provide an attempt to answer: what exactly makes outdoor natural scenes memorable. To this end, we first establish a large-scale outdoor natural scene image memorability (LNSIM) database, containing 2,632 outdoor natural scene images with their ground truth memorability scores and the multi-label scene category annotations. Then, similar to previous works, we mine our database to investigate how low-, middle- and high-level handcrafted features affect the memorability of outdoor natural scenes. In particular, we find that the high-level feature of scene category is rather correlated with outdoor natural scene memorability, and the deep features learnt by deep neural network (DNN) are also effective in predicting the memorability scores. Moreover, combining the deep features with the category feature can further boost the performance of memorability prediction. Therefore, we propose an end-to-end DNN based outdoor natural scene memorability (DeepNSM) predictor, which takes advantage of the learned category-related features. Then, the experimental results validate the effectiveness of our DeepNSM model, exceeding the state-of-the-art methods. Finally, we try to understand the reason of the good performance for our DeepNSM model, and also study the cases that our DeepNSM model succeeds or fails to accurately predict the memorability of outdoor natural scenes.

While depth sensors are becoming increasingly popular, their spatial resolution often remains limited. Depth super-resolution therefore emerged as a solution to this problem. Despite much progress, state-of-the-art techniques suffer from two drawback
s: (i) they rely on the assumption that intensity edges coincide with depth discontinuities, which, unfortunately, is only true in controlled environments; and (ii) they typically exploit the availability of high-resolution training depth maps, which can often not be acquired in practice due to the sensors limitations. By contrast, here, we introduce an approach to performing depth super-resolution in more challenging conditions, such as in outdoor scenes. To this end, we first propose to exploit semantic information to better constrain the super-resolution process. In particular, we design a co-sparse analysis model that learns filters from joint intensity, depth and semantic information. Furthermore, we show how low-resolution training depth maps can be employed in our learning strategy. We demonstrate the benefits of our approach over state-of-the-art depth super-resolution methods on two outdoor scene datasets.
A key capability of an intelligent system is deciding when events from past experience must be remembered and when they can be forgotten. Towards this goal, we develop a predictive model of human visual event memory and how those memories decay over
time. We introduce Memento10k, a new, dynamic video memorability dataset containing human annotations at different viewing delays. Based on our findings we propose a new mathematical formulation of memorability decay, resulting in a model that is able to produce the first quantitative estimation of how a video decays in memory over time. In contrast with previous work, our model can predict the probability that a video will be remembered at an arbitrary delay. Importantly, our approach combines visual and semantic information (in the form of textual captions) to fully represent the meaning of events. Our experiments on two video memorability benchmarks, including Memento10k, show that our model significantly improves upon the best prior approach (by 12% on average).
Scene parsing, or recognizing and segmenting objects and stuff in an image, is one of the key problems in computer vision. Despite the communitys efforts in data collection, there are still few image datasets covering a wide range of scenes and objec
t categories with dense and detailed annotations for scene parsing. In this paper, we introduce and analyze the ADE20K dataset, spanning diverse annotations of scenes, objects, parts of objects, and in some cases even parts of parts. A generic network design called Cascade Segmentation Module is then proposed to enable the segmentation networks to parse a scene into stuff, objects, and object parts in a cascade. We evaluate the proposed module integrated within two existing semantic segmentation networks, yielding significant improvements for scene parsing. We further show that the scene parsing networks trained on ADE20K can be applied to a wide variety of scenes and objects.
We consider the problem of enriching current object detection systems with veridical object sizes and relative depth estimates from a single image. There are several technical challenges to this, such as occlusions, lack of calibration data and the s
cale ambiguity between object size and distance. These have not been addressed in full generality in previous work. Here we propose to tackle these issues by building upon advances in object recognition and using recently created large-scale datasets. We first introduce the task of amodal bounding box completion, which aims to infer the the full extent of the object instances in the image. We then propose a probabilistic framework for learning category-specific object size distributions from available annotations and leverage these in conjunction with amodal completion to infer veridical sizes in novel images. Finally, we introduce a focal length prediction approach that exploits scene recognition to overcome inherent scaling ambiguities and we demonstrate qualitative results on challenging real-world scenes.
Given a single RGB image of a complex outdoor road scene in the perspective view, we address the novel problem of estimating an occlusion-reasoned semantic scene layout in the top-view. This challenging problem not only requires an accurate understan
ding of both the 3D geometry and the semantics of the visible scene, but also of occluded areas. We propose a convolutional neural network that learns to predict occluded portions of the scene layout by looking around foreground objects like cars or pedestrians. But instead of hallucinating RGB values, we show that directly predicting the semantics and depths in the occluded areas enables a better transformation into the top-view. We further show that this initial top-view representation can be significantly enhanced by learning priors and rules about typical road layouts from simulated or, if available, map data. Crucially, training our model does not require costly or subjective human annotations for occluded areas or the top-view, but rather uses readily available annotations for standard semantic segmentation. We extensively evaluate and analyze our approach on the KITTI and Cityscapes data sets.
