Matching keypoint pairs of different images is a basic task of computer vision. Most methods require customized extremum point schemes to obtain the coordinates of feature points with high confidence, which often need complex algorithmic design or a network with higher training difficulty and also ignore the possibility that flat regions can be used as candidate regions of matching points. In this paper, we design a region-based descriptor by combining the context features of a deep network. The new descriptor can give a robust representation of a point even in flat regions. By the new descriptor, we can obtain more high confidence matching points without extremum operation. The experimental results show that our proposed method achieves a performance comparable to state-of-the-art.

Person re-identification (Re-ID) aims at retrieving an input person image from a set of images captured by multiple cameras. Although recent Re-ID methods have made great success, most of them extract features in terms of the attributes of clothing ( e.g., color, texture). However, it is common for people to wear black clothes or be captured by surveillance systems in low light illumination, in which cases the attributes of the clothing are severely missing. We call this problem the Black Re-ID problem. To solve this problem, rather than relying on the clothing information, we propose to exploit head-shoulder features to assist person Re-ID. The head-shoulder adaptive attention network (HAA) is proposed to learn the head-shoulder feature and an innovative ensemble method is designed to enhance the generalization of our model. Given the input person image, the ensemble method would focus on the head-shoulder feature by assigning a larger weight if the individual insides the image is in black clothing. Due to the lack of a suitable benchmark dataset for studying the Black Re-ID problem, we also contribute the first Black-reID dataset, which contains 1274 identities in training set. Extensive evaluations on the Black-reID, Market1501 and DukeMTMC-reID datasets show that our model achieves the best result compared with the state-of-the-art Re-ID methods on both Black and conventional Re-ID problems. Furthermore, our method is also proved to be effective in dealing with person Re-ID in similar clothing. Our code and dataset are avaliable on https://github.com/xbq1994/.

Convolutional Neural Networks (CNNs) achieved great cognitive performance at the expense of considerable computation load. To relieve the computation load, many optimization works are developed to reduce the model redundancy by identifying and removi ng insignificant model components, such as weight sparsity and filter pruning. However, these works only evaluate model components static significance with internal parameter information, ignoring their dynamic interaction with external inputs. With per-input feature activation, the model component significance can dynamically change, and thus the static methods can only achieve sub-optimal results. Therefore, we propose a dynamic CNN optimization framework in this work. Based on the neural network attention mechanism, we propose a comprehensive dynamic optimization framework including (1) testing-phase channel and column feature map pruning, as well as (2) training-phase optimization by targeted dropout. Such a dynamic optimization framework has several benefits: (1) First, it can accurately identify and aggressively remove per-input feature redundancy with considering the model-input interaction; (2) Meanwhile, it can maximally remove the feature map redundancy in various dimensions thanks to the multi-dimension flexibility; (3) The training-testing co-optimization favors the dynamic pruning and helps maintain the model accuracy even with very high feature pruning ratio. Extensive experiments show that our method could bring 37.4% to 54.5% FLOPs reduction with negligible accuracy drop on various of test networks.
Since the PointNet was proposed, deep learning on point cloud has been the concentration of intense 3D research. However, existing point-based methods usually are not adequate to extract the local features and the spatial pattern of a point cloud for further shape understanding. This paper presents an end-to-end framework, SK-Net, to jointly optimize the inference of spatial keypoint with the learning of feature representation of a point cloud for a specific point cloud task. One key process of SK-Net is the generation of spatial keypoints (Skeypoints). It is jointly conducted by two proposed regulating losses and a task objective function without knowledge of Skeypoint location annotations and proposals. Specifically, our Skeypoints are not sensitive to the location consistency but are acutely aware of shape. Another key process of SK-Net is the extraction of the local structure of Skeypoints (detail feature) and the local spatial pattern of normalized Skeypoints (pattern feature). This process generates a comprehensive representation, pattern-detail (PD) feature, which comprises the local detail information of a point cloud and reveals its spatial pattern through the part district reconstruction on normalized Skeypoints. Consequently, our network is prompted to effectively understand the correlation between different regions of a point cloud and integrate contextual information of the point cloud. In point cloud tasks, such as classification and segmentation, our proposed method performs better than or comparable with the state-of-the-art approaches. We also present an ablation study to demonstrate the advantages of SK-Net.
Since medical image data sets contain few samples and singular features, lesions are viewed as highly similar to other tissues. The traditional neural network has a limited ability to learn features. Even if a host of feature maps is expanded to obta in more semantic information, the accuracy of segmenting the final medical image is slightly improved, and the features are excessively redundant. To solve the above problems, in this paper, we propose a novel end-to-end semantic segmentation algorithm, DT-Net, and use two new convolution strategies to better achieve end-to-end semantic segmentation of medical images. 1. In the feature mining and feature fusion stage, we construct a multi-directional integrated convolution (MDIC). The core idea is to use the multi-scale convolution to enhance the local multi-directional feature maps to generate enhanced feature maps and to mine the generated features that contain more semantics without increasing the number of feature maps. 2. We also aim to further excavate and retain more meaningful deep features reduce a host of noise features in the training process. Therefore, we propose a convolution thresholding strategy. The central idea is to set a threshold to eliminate a large number of redundant features and reduce computational complexity. Through the two strategies proposed above, the algorithm proposed in this paper produces state-of-the-art results on two public medical image datasets. We prove in detail that our proposed strategy plays an important role in feature mining and eliminating redundant features. Compared with the existing semantic segmentation algorithms, our proposed algorithm has better robustness.
We present a method for improving human design of chairs. The goal of the method is generating enormous chair candidates in order to facilitate human designer by creating sketches and 3d models accordingly based on the generated chair design. It cons ists of an image synthesis module, which learns the underlying distribution of training dataset, a super-resolution module, which improve quality of generated image and human involvements. Finally, we manually pick one of the generated candidates to create a real life chair for illustration.
