Discriminative localization is essential for fine-grained image classification task, which devotes to recognizing hundreds of subcategories in the same basic-level category. Reflecting on discriminative regions of objects, key differences among different subcategories are subtle and local. Existing methods generally adopt a two-stage learning framework: The first stage is to localize the discriminative regions of objects, and the second is to encode the discriminative features for training classifiers. However, these methods generally have two limitations: (1) Separation of the two-stage learning is time-consuming. (2) Dependence on object and parts annotations for discriminative localization learning leads to heavily labor-consuming labeling. It is highly challenging to address these two important limitations simultaneously. Existing methods only focus on one of them. Therefore, this paper proposes the discriminative localization approach via saliency-guided Faster R-CNN to address the above two limitations at the same time, and our main novelties and advantages are: (1) End-to-end network based on Faster R-CNN is designed to simultaneously localize discriminative regions and encode discriminative features, which accelerates classification speed. (2) Saliency-guided localization learning is proposed to localize the discriminative region automatically, avoiding labor-consuming labeling. Both are jointly employed to simultaneously accelerate classification speed and eliminate dependence on object and parts annotations. Comparing with the state-of-the-art methods on the widely-used CUB-200-2011 dataset, our approach achieves both the best classification accuracy and efficiency.

Fine-grained image classification is to recognize hundreds of subcategories in each basic-level category. Existing methods employ discriminative localization to find the key distinctions among subcategories. However, they generally have two limitatio
ns: (1) Discriminative localization relies on region proposal methods to hypothesize the locations of discriminative regions, which are time-consuming. (2) The training of discriminative localization depends on object or part annotations, which are heavily labor-consuming. It is highly challenging to address the two key limitations simultaneously, and existing methods only focus on one of them. Therefore, we propose a weakly supervised discriminative localization approach (WSDL) for fast fine-grained image classification to address the two limitations at the same time, and its main advantages are: (1) n-pathway end-to-end discriminative localization network is designed to improve classification speed, which simultaneously localizes multiple different discriminative regions for one image to boost classification accuracy, and shares full-image convolutional features generated by region proposal network to accelerate the process of generating region proposals as well as reduce the computation of convolutional operation. (2) Multi-level attention guided localization learning is proposed to localize discriminative regions with different focuses automatically, without using object and part annotations, avoiding the labor consumption. Different level attentions focus on different characteristics of the image, which are complementary and boost the classification accuracy. Both are jointly employed to simultaneously improve classification speed and eliminate dependence on object and part annotations. Compared with state-of-the-art methods on 2 widely-used fine-grained image classification datasets, our WSDL approach achieves the best performance.
Self-supervised contrastive learning has demonstrated great potential in learning visual representations. Despite their success on various downstream tasks such as image classification and object detection, self-supervised pre-training for fine-grain
ed scenarios is not fully explored. In this paper, we first point out that current contrastive methods are prone to memorizing background/foreground texture and therefore have a limitation in localizing the foreground object. Analysis suggests that learning to extract discriminative texture information and localization are equally crucial for self-supervised pre-training under fine-grained scenarios. Based on our findings, we introduce Cross-view Saliency Alignment (CVSA), a contrastive learning framework that first crops and swaps saliency regions of images as a novel view generation and then guides the model to localize on the foreground object via a cross-view alignment loss. Extensive experiments on four popular fine-grained classification benchmarks show that CVSA significantly improves the learned representation.
Holistically understanding an object and its 3D movable parts through visual perception models is essential for enabling an autonomous agent to interact with the world. For autonomous driving, the dynamics and states of vehicle parts such as doors, t
he trunk, and the bonnet can provide meaningful semantic information and interaction states, which are essential to ensuring the safety of the self-driving vehicle. Existing visual perception models mainly focus on coarse parsing such as object bounding box detection or pose estimation and rarely tackle these situations. In this paper, we address this important autonomous driving problem by solving three critical issues. First, to deal with data scarcity, we propose an effective training data generation process by fitting a 3D car model with dynamic parts to vehicles in real images before reconstructing human-vehicle interaction (VHI) scenarios. Our approach is fully automatic without any human interaction, which can generate a large number of vehicles in uncommon states (VUS) for training deep neural networks (DNNs). Second, to perform fine-grained vehicle perception, we present a multi-task network for VUS parsing and a multi-stream network for VHI parsing. Third, to quantitatively evaluate the effectiveness of our data augmentation approach, we build the first VUS dataset in real traffic scenarios (e.g., getting on/out or placing/removing luggage). Experimental results show that our approach advances other baseline methods in 2D detection and instance segmentation by a big margin (over 8%). In addition, our network yields large improvements in discovering and understanding these uncommon cases. Moreover, we have released the source code, the dataset, and the trained model on Github (https://github.com/zongdai/EditingForDNN).
We propose a novel approach to enhance the discriminability of Convolutional Neural Networks (CNN). The key idea is to build a tree structure that could progressively learn fine-grained features to distinguish a subset of classes, by learning feature
s only among these classes. Such features are expected to be more discriminative, compared to features learned for all the classes. We develop a new algorithm to effectively learn the tree structure from a large number of classes. Experiments on large-scale image classification tasks demonstrate that our method could boost the performance of a given basic CNN model. Our method is quite general, hence it can potentially be used in combination with many other deep learning models.
Diabetic retinopathy (DR) is one of the leading causes of blindness. However, no specific symptoms of early DR lead to a delayed diagnosis, which results in disease progression in patients. To determine the disease severity levels, ophthalmologists n
eed to focus on the discriminative parts of the fundus images. In recent years, deep learning has achieved great success in medical image analysis. However, most works directly employ algorithms based on convolutional neural networks (CNNs), which ignore the fact that the difference among classes is subtle and gradual. Hence, we consider automatic image grading of DR as a fine-grained classification task, and construct a bilinear model to identify the pathologically discriminative areas. In order to leverage the ordinal information among classes, we use an ordinal regression method to obtain the soft labels. In addition, other than only using a categorical loss to train our network, we also introduce the metric loss to learn a more discriminative feature space. Experimental results demonstrate the superior performance of the proposed method on two public IDRiD and DeepDR datasets.
