We unveil a long-standing problem in the prevailing co-saliency detection systems: there is indeed inconsistency between training and testing. Constructing a high-quality co-saliency detection dataset involves time-consuming and labor-intensive pixel-level labeling, which has forced most recent works to rely instead on semantic segmentation or saliency detection datasets for training. However, the lack of proper co-saliency and the absence of multiple foreground objects in these datasets can lead to spurious variations and inherent biases learned by models. To tackle this, we introduce the idea of counterfactual training through context adjustment and propose a cost-free group-cut-paste (GCP) procedure to leverage off-the-shelf images and synthesize new samples. Following GCP, we collect a novel dataset called Context Adjustment Training (CAT). CAT consists of 33,500 images, which is four times larger than the current co-saliency detection datasets. All samples are automatically annotated with high-quality mask annotations, object categories, and edge maps. Extensive experiments on recent benchmarks are conducted, show that CAT can improve various state-of-the-art models by a large margin (5% ~ 25%). We hope that the scale, diversity, and quality of our dataset can benefit researchers in this area and beyond. Our dataset will be publicly accessible through our project page.

We propose a new approach to visualize saliency maps for deep neural network models and apply it to deep reinforcement learning agents trained on Atari environments. Our method adds an attention module that we call FLS (Free Lunch Saliency) to the fe
ature extractor from an established baseline (Mnih et al., 2015). This addition results in a trainable model that can produce saliency maps, i.e., visualizations of the importance of different parts of the input for the agents current decision making. We show experimentally that a network with an FLS module exhibits performance similar to the baseline (i.e., it is free, with no performance cost) and can be used as a drop-in replacement for reinforcement learning agents. We also design another feature extractor that scores slightly lower but provides higher-fidelity visualizations. In addition to attained scores, we report saliency metrics evaluated on the Atari-HEAD dataset of human gameplay.
Co-salient object detection (CoSOD) has recently achieved significant progress and played a key role in retrieval-related tasks. However, it inevitably poses an entirely new safety and security issue, i.e., highly personal and sensitive content can p
otentially be extracting by powerful CoSOD methods. In this paper, we address this problem from the perspective of adversarial attacks and identify a novel task: adversarial co-saliency attack. Specially, given an image selected from a group of images containing some common and salient objects, we aim to generate an adversarial version that can mislead CoSOD methods to predict incorrect co-salient regions. Note that, compared with general white-box adversarial attacks for classification, this new task faces two additional challenges: (1) low success rate due to the diverse appearance of images in the group; (2) low transferability across CoSOD methods due to the considerable difference between CoSOD pipelines. To address these challenges, we propose the very first black-box joint adversarial exposure and noise attack (Jadena), where we jointly and locally tune the exposure and additive perturbations of the image according to a newly designed high-feature-level contrast-sensitive loss function. Our method, without any information on the state-of-the-art CoSOD methods, leads to significant performance degradation on various co-saliency detection datasets and makes the co-salient objects undetectable. This can have strong practical benefits in properly securing the large number of personal photos currently shared on the internet.
Image retargeting is the task of making images capable of being displayed on screens with different sizes. This work should be done so that high-level visual information and low-level features such as texture remain as intact as possible to the human
visual system, while the output image may have different dimensions. Thus, simple methods such as scaling and cropping are not adequate for this purpose. In recent years, researchers have tried to improve the existing retargeting methods and introduce new ones. However, a specific method cannot be utilized to retarget all types of images. In other words, different images require different retargeting methods. Image retargeting has a close relationship to image saliency detection, which is relatively a new image processing task. Earlier saliency detection methods were based on local and global but low-level image information. These methods are called bottom-up methods. On the other hand, newer approaches are top-down and mixed methods that consider the high level and semantic information of the image too. In this paper, we introduce the proposed methods in both saliency detection and retargeting. For the saliency detection, the use of image context and semantic segmentation are examined, and a novel mixed bottom-up, and top-down saliency detection method is introduced. After saliency detection, a modified version of an existing retargeting method is utilized for retargeting the images. The results suggest that the proposed image retargeting pipeline has excellent performance compared to other tested methods. Also, the subjective evaluations on the Pascal dataset can be used as a retargeting quality assessment dataset for further research.
A precondition for a No Free Lunch theorem is evaluation with a loss function which does not assume a priori superiority of some outputs over others. A previous result for community detection by Peel et al. (2017) relies on a mismatch between the los
s function and the problem domain. The loss function computes an expectation over only a subset of the universe of possible outputs; thus, it is only asymptotically appropriate with respect to the problem size. By using the correct random model for the problem domain, we provide a stronger, exact No Free Lunch theorem for community detection. The claim generalizes to other set-partitioning tasks including core/periphery separation, $k$-clustering, and graph partitioning. Finally, we review the literature of proposed evaluation functions and identify functions which (perhaps with slight modifications) are compatible with an exact No Free Lunch theorem.
Object proposals greatly benefit object detection task in recent state-of-the-art works. However, the existing object proposals usually have low localization accuracy at high intersection over union threshold. To address it, we apply saliency detecti
on to each bounding box to improve their quality in this paper. We first present a geodesic saliency detection method in contour, which is designed to find closed contours. Then, we apply it to each candidate box with multi-sizes, and refined boxes can be easily produced in the obtained saliency maps which are further used to calculate saliency scores for proposal ranking. Experiments on PASCAL VOC 2007 test dataset demonstrate the proposed refinement approach can greatly improve existing models.
