Some image restoration tasks like demosaicing require difficult training samples to learn effective models. Existing methods attempt to address this data training problem by manually collecting a new training dataset that contains adequate hard samples, however, there are still hard and simple areas even within one single image. In this paper, we present a data-driven approach called PatchNet that learns to select the most useful patches from an image to construct a new training set instead of manual or random selection. We show that our simple idea automatically selects informative samples out from a large-scale dataset, leading to a surprising 2.35dB generalisation gain in terms of PSNR. In addition to its remarkable effectiveness, PatchNet is also resource-friendly as it is applied only during training and therefore does not require any additional computational cost during inference.

In industry, there exist plenty of scenarios where old gray photos need to be automatically colored, such as video sites and archives. In this paper, we present the HistoryNet focusing on historical persons diverse high fidelity clothing colorization based on fine grained semantic understanding and prior. Colorization of historical persons is realistic and practical, however, existing methods do not perform well in the regards. In this paper, a HistoryNet including three parts, namely, classification, fine grained semantic parsing and colorization, is proposed. Classification sub-module supplies classifying of images according to the eras, nationalities and garment types; Parsing sub-network supplies the semantic for person contours, clothing and background in the image to achieve more accurate colorization of clothes and persons and prevent color overflow. In the training process, we integrate classification and semantic parsing features into the coloring generation network to improve colorization. Through the design of classification and parsing subnetwork, the accuracy of image colorization can be improved and the boundary of each part of image can be more clearly. Moreover, we also propose a novel Modern Historical Movies Dataset (MHMD) containing 1,353,166 images and 42 labels of eras, nationalities, and garment types for automatic colorization from 147 historical movies or TV series made in modern time. Various quantitative and qualitative comparisons demonstrate that our method outperforms the state-of-the-art colorization methods, especially on military uniforms, which has correct colors according to the historical literatures.

Omnidirectional video is an essential component of Virtual Reality. Although various methods have been proposed to generate content that can be viewed with six degrees of freedom (6-DoF), existing systems usually involve complex depth estimation, ima ge in-painting or stitching pre-processing. In this paper, we propose a system that uses a 3D ConvNet to generate a multi-sphere images (MSI) representation that can be experienced in 6-DoF VR. The system utilizes conventional omnidirectional VR camera footage directly without the need for a depth map or segmentation mask, thereby significantly simplifying the overall complexity of the 6-DoF omnidirectional video composition. By using a newly designed weighted sphere sweep volume (WSSV) fusing technique, our approach is compatible with most panoramic VR camera setups. A ground truth generation approach for high-quality artifact-free 6-DoF contents is proposed and can be used by the research and development community for 6-DoF content generation.
Training deep learning based video classifiers for action recognition requires a large amount of labeled videos. The labeling process is labor-intensive and time-consuming. On the other hand, large amount of weakly-labeled images are uploaded to the Internet by users everyday. To harness the rich and highly diverse set of Web images, a scalable approach is to crawl these images to train deep learning based classifier, such as Convolutional Neural Networks (CNN). However, due to the domain shift problem, the performance of Web images trained deep classifiers tend to degrade when directly deployed to videos. One way to address this problem is to fine-tune the trained models on videos, but sufficient amount of annotated videos are still required. In this work, we propose a novel approach to transfer knowledge from image domain to video domain. The proposed method can adapt to the target domain (i.e. video data) with limited amount of training data. Our method maps the video frames into a low-dimensional feature space using the class-discriminative spatial attention map for CNNs. We design a novel Siamese EnergyNet structure to learn energy functions on the attention maps by jointly optimizing two loss functions, such that the attention map corresponding to a ground truth concept would have higher energy. We conduct extensive experiments on two challenging video recognition datasets (i.e. TVHI and UCF101), and demonstrate the efficacy of our proposed method.

Adversarial attacks pose a substantial threat to computer vision system security, but the social media industry constantly faces another form of adversarial attack in which the hackers attempt to upload inappropriate images and fool the automated scr eening systems by adding artificial graphics patterns. In this paper, we formulate the defense against such attacks as an artificial graphics pattern segmentation problem. We evaluate the efficacy of several segmentation algorithms and, based on observation of their performance, propose a new method tailored to this specific problem. Extensive experiments show that the proposed method outperforms the baselines and has a promising generalization capability, which is the most crucial aspect in segmenting artificial graphics patterns.

When watching omnidirectional images (ODIs), subjects can access different viewports by moving their heads. Therefore, it is necessary to predict subjects head fixations on ODIs. Inspired by generative adversarial imitation learning (GAIL), this pape r proposes a novel approach to predict saliency of head fixations on ODIs, named SalGAIL. First, we establish a dataset for attention on ODIs (AOI). In contrast to traditional datasets, our AOI dataset is large-scale, which contains the head fixations of 30 subjects viewing 600 ODIs. Next, we mine our AOI dataset and determine three findings: (1) The consistency of head fixations are consistent among subjects, and it grows alongside the increased subject number; (2) The head fixations exist with a front center bias (FCB); and (3) The magnitude of head movement is similar across subjects. According to these findings, our SalGAIL approach applies deep reinforcement learning (DRL) to predict the head fixations of one subject, in which GAIL learns the reward of DRL, rather than the traditional human-designed reward. Then, multi-stream DRL is developed to yield the head fixations of different subjects, and the saliency map of an ODI is generated via convoluting predicted head fixations. Finally, experiments validate the effectiveness of our approach in predicting saliency maps of ODIs, significantly better than 10 state-of-the-art approaches.
