In remote sensing images, the existence of the thin cloud is an inevitable and ubiquitous phenomenon that crucially reduces the quality of imageries and limits the scenarios of application. Therefore, thin cloud removal is an indispensable procedure to enhance the utilization of remote sensing images. Generally, even though contaminated by thin clouds, the pixels still retain more or less surface information. Hence, different from thick cloud removal, thin cloud removal algorithms normally concentrate on inhibiting the cloud influence rather than substituting the cloud-contaminated pixels. Meanwhile, considering the surface features obscured by the cloud are usually similar to adjacent areas, the dependency between each pixel of the input is useful to reconstruct contaminated areas. In this paper, to make full use of the dependencies between pixels of the image, we propose a Multi-Head Linear Attention Generative Adversarial Network (MLAGAN) for Thin Cloud Removal. The MLA-GAN is based on the encoding-decoding framework consisting of multiple attention-based layers and deconvolutional layers. Compared with six deep learning-based thin cloud removal benchmarks, the experimental results on the RICE1 and RICE2 datasets demonstrate that the proposed framework MLA-GAN has dominant advantages in thin cloud removal.

In this paper, we explore the task of generating photo-realistic face images from lines. Previous methods based on conditional generative adversarial networks (cGANs) have shown their power to generate visually plausible images when a conditional ima
ge and an output image share well-aligned structures. However, these models fail to synthesize face images with a whole set of well-defined structures, e.g. eyes, noses, mouths, etc., especially when the conditional line map lacks one or several parts. To address this problem, we propose a conditional self-attention generative adversarial network (CSAGAN). We introduce a conditional self-attention mechanism to cGANs to capture long-range dependencies between different regions in faces. We also build a multi-scale discriminator. The large-scale discriminator enforces the completeness of global structures and the small-scale discriminator encourages fine details, thereby enhancing the realism of generated face images. We evaluate the proposed model on the CelebA-HD dataset by two perceptual user studies and three quantitative metrics. The experiment results demonstrate that our method generates high-quality facial images while preserving facial structures. Our results outperform state-of-the-art methods both quantitatively and qualitatively.
Conditional Generative Adversarial Networks (cGANs) have been used in many image processing tasks. However, they still have serious problems maintaining the balance between conditioning the output on the input and creating the output with the desired
distribution based on the corresponding ground truth. The traditional cGANs, similar to most conventional GANs, suffer from vanishing gradients, which backpropagate from the discriminator to the generator. Moreover, the traditional cGANs are sensitive to architectural changes due to previously mentioned gradient problems. Therefore, balancing the architecture of the cGANs is almost impossible. Recently MSG-GAN has been proposed to stabilize the performance of the GANs by applying multiple connections between the generator and discriminator. In this work, we propose a method called MSGDD-cGAN, which first stabilizes the performance of the cGANs using multi-connections gradients flow. Secondly, the proposed network architecture balances the correlation of the output to input and the fitness of the output on the target distribution. This balance is generated by using the proposed dual discrimination procedure. We tested our model by segmentation of fetal ultrasound images. Our model shows a 3.18% increase in the F1 score comparing to the pix2pix version of cGANs.
Raindrops adhered to a glass window or camera lens can severely hamper the visibility of a background scene and degrade an image considerably. In this paper, we address the problem by visually removing raindrops, and thus transforming a raindrop degr
aded image into a clean one. The problem is intractable, since first the regions occluded by raindrops are not given. Second, the information about the background scene of the occluded regions is completely lost for most part. To resolve the problem, we apply an attentive generative network using adversarial training. Our main idea is to inject visual attention into both the generative and discriminative networks. During the training, our visual attention learns about raindrop regions and their surroundings. Hence, by injecting this information, the generative network will pay more attention to the raindrop regions and the surrounding structures, and the discriminative network will be able to assess the local consistency of the restored regions. This injection of visual attention to both generative and discriminative networks is the main contribution of this paper. Our experiments show the effectiveness of our approach, which outperforms the state of the art methods quantitatively and qualitatively.
We present a novel facial expression recognition network, called Distract your Attention Network (DAN). Our method is based on two key observations. Firstly, multiple classes share inherently similar underlying facial appearance, and their difference
s could be subtle. Secondly, facial expressions exhibit themselves through multiple facial regions simultaneously, and the recognition requires a holistic approach by encoding high-order interactions among local features. To address these issues, we propose our DAN with three key components: Feature Clustering Network (FCN), Multi-head cross Attention Network (MAN), and Attention Fusion Network (AFN). The FCN extracts robust features by adopting a large-margin learning objective to maximize class separability. In addition, the MAN instantiates a number of attention heads to simultaneously attend to multiple facial areas and build attention maps on these regions. Further, the AFN distracts these attentions to multiple locations before fusing the attention maps to a comprehensive one. Extensive experiments on three public datasets (including AffectNet, RAF-DB, and SFEW 2.0) verified that the proposed method consistently achieves state-of-the-art facial expression recognition performance. Code will be made available at https://github.com/yaoing/DAN.
