In this work we introduce Lean Point Networks (LPNs) to train deeper and more accurate point processing networks by relying on three novel point processing blocks that improve memory consumption, inference time, and accuracy: a convolution-type block for point sets that blends neighborhood information in a memory-efficient manner; a crosslink block that efficiently shares information across low- and high-resolution processing branches; and a multiresolution point cloud processing block for faster diffusion of information. By combining these blocks, we design wider and deeper point-based architectures. We report systematic accuracy and memory consumption improvements on multiple publicly available segmentation tasks by using our generic modules as drop-in replacements for the blocks of multiple architectures (PointNet++, DGCNN, SpiderNet, PointCNN).

Transformers have been recently adapted for large scale image classification, achieving high scores shaking up the long supremacy of convolutional neural networks. However the optimization of image transformers has been little studied so far. In this
work, we build and optimize deeper transformer networks for image classification. In particular, we investigate the interplay of architecture and optimization of such dedicated transformers. We make two transformers architecture changes that significantly improve the accuracy of deep transformers. This leads us to produce models whose performance does not saturate early with more depth, for instance we obtain 86.5% top-1 accuracy on Imagenet when training with no external data, we thus attain the current SOTA with less FLOPs and parameters. Moreover, our best model establishes the new state of the art on Imagenet with Reassessed labels and Imagenet-V2 / match frequency, in the setting with no additional training data. We share our code and models.
Over the past few years, Spiking Neural Networks (SNNs) have become popular as a possible pathway to enable low-power event-driven neuromorphic hardware. However, their application in machine learning have largely been limited to very shallow neural
network architectures for simple problems. In this paper, we propose a novel algorithmic technique for generating an SNN with a deep architecture, and demonstrate its effectiveness on complex visual recognition problems such as CIFAR-10 and ImageNet. Our technique applies to both VGG and Residual network architectures, with significantly better accuracy than the state-of-the-art. Finally, we present analysis of the sparse event-driven computations to demonstrate reduced hardware overhead when operating in the spiking domain.
Spiking neural networks (SNNs) are promising in a bio-plausible coding for spatio-temporal information and event-driven signal processing, which is very suited for energy-efficient implementation in neuromorphic hardware. However, the unique working
mode of SNNs makes them more difficult to train than traditional networks. Currently, there are two main routes to explore the training of deep SNNs with high performance. The first is to convert a pre-trained ANN model to its SNN version, which usually requires a long coding window for convergence and cannot exploit the spatio-temporal features during training for solving temporal tasks. The other is to directly train SNNs in the spatio-temporal domain. But due to the binary spike activity of the firing function and the problem of gradient vanishing or explosion, current methods are restricted to shallow architectures and thereby difficult in harnessing large-scale datasets (e.g. ImageNet). To this end, we propose a threshold-dependent batch normalization (tdBN) method based on the emerging spatio-temporal backpropagation, termed STBP-tdBN, enabling direct training of a very deep SNN and the efficient implementation of its inference on neuromorphic hardware. With the proposed method and elaborated shortcut connection, we significantly extend directly-trained SNNs from a shallow structure ( < 10 layer) to a very deep structure (50 layers). Furthermore, we theoretically analyze the effectiveness of our method based on Block Dynamical Isometry theory. Finally, we report superior accuracy results including 93.15 % on CIFAR-10, 67.8 % on DVS-CIFAR10, and 67.05% on ImageNet with very few timesteps. To our best knowledge, its the first time to explore the directly-trained deep SNNs with high performance on ImageNet.
Person re-identification is the challenging task of identifying a person across different camera views. Training a convolutional neural network (CNN) for this task requires annotating a large dataset, and hence, it involves the time-consuming manual
matching of people across cameras. To reduce the need for labeled data, we focus on a semi-supervised approach that requires only a subset of the training data to be labeled. We conduct a comprehensive survey in the area of person re-identification with limited labels. Existing works in this realm are limited in the sense that they utilize features from multiple CNNs and require the number of identities in the unlabeled data to be known. To overcome these limitations, we propose to employ part-based features from a single CNN without requiring the knowledge of the label space (i.e., the number of identities). This makes our approach more suitable for practical scenarios, and it significantly reduces the need for computational resources. We also propose a PartMixUp loss that improves the discriminative ability of learned part-based features for pseudo-labeling in semi-supervised settings. Our method outperforms the state-of-the-art results on three large-scale person re-id datasets and achieves the same level of performance as fully supervised methods with only one-third of labeled identities.
Point Pair Features is a widely used method to detect 3D objects in point clouds, however they are prone to fail in presence of sensor noise and background clutter. We introduce novel sampling and voting schemes that significantly reduces the influen
ce of clutter and sensor noise. Our experiments show that with our improvements, PPFs become competitive against state-of-the-art methods as it outperforms them on several objects from challenging benchmarks, at a low computational cost.
