Book Data Representation and Attention aided Neural Networks for Object Classification and Segmentation

Download or read book Data Representation and Attention aided Neural Networks for Object Classification and Segmentation written by Vinit Veerendraveer Singh and published by . This book was released on 2022 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The success of Convolutional Neural Networks can be primarily attributed to considering the underlying grid representation of images and the local neighborhoods around pixels. Another critical factor for their success is to implicitly and hierarchically attend to task-critical regions in the images. However, extending techniques and components from image-based Convolutional Neural Networks to higher dimensional data is non-trivial. In addition, deeper Convolutional Neural Networks are required to attend to the task-critical regions implicitly, thus increasing their computational complexity. The goal of this dissertation is to present novel techniques and components for neural networks that harness the data's underlying representation for computer vision tasks. It also presents attention modules that aid the neural network in explicitly attending to regions that are most likely to improve their performance on predictive modeling problems such as object classification and object segmentation. I first present an attention mechanism for feature maps of neural networks that takes advantage of the underlying grid representation of feature maps. When it was introduced to pre-trained Convolutional Networks' bottlenecks, consistent improvements in accuracy were observed for image classification. Second, I extended dilated convolutions from the image domain to 3D mesh representations. Then, I utilized dilated mesh convolutions to build novel attention and pooling mechanisms in neural networks for mesh classification. State-of-the-art results were achieved. Lastly, I present an attention-inspired and graph-representation-based data augmentation approach that generalizes to n-dimensional space. Utilizing this augmentation approach with neural networks improved their performance for image classification and 3D shape analysis tasks.

Book Deep Learning in Object Recognition  Detection  and Segmentation

Download or read book Deep Learning in Object Recognition Detection and Segmentation written by Xiaogang Wang and published by . This book was released on 2016 with total page 165 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: As a major breakthrough in artificial intelligence, deep learning has achieved very impressive success in solving grand challenges in many fields including speech recognition, natural language processing, computer vision, image and video processing, and multimedia. This article provides a historical overview of deep learning and focus on its applications in object recognition, detection, and segmentation, which are key challenges of computer vision and have numerous applications to images and videos. The discussed research topics on object recognition include image classification on ImageNet, face recognition, and video classification. The detection part covers general object detection on ImageNet, pedestrian detection, face landmark detection (face alignment), and human landmark detection (pose estimation). On the segmentation side, the article discusses the most recent progress on scene labeling, semantic segmentation, face parsing, human parsing and saliency detection. Object recognition is considered as whole-image classification, while detection and segmentation are pixelwise classification tasks. Their fundamental differences will be discussed in this article. Fully convolutional neural networks and highly efficient forward and backward propagation algorithms specially designed for pixelwise classification task will be introduced. The covered application domains are also much diversified. Human and face images have regular structures, while general object and scene images have much more complex variations in geometric structures and layout. Videos include the temporal dimension. Therefore, they need to be processed with different deep models. All the selected domain applications have received tremendous attentions in the computer vision and multimedia communities. Through concrete examples of these applications, we explain the key points which make deep learning outperform conventional computer vision systems. (1) Different than traditional pattern recognition systems, which heavily rely on manually designed features, deep learning automatically learns hierarchical feature representations from massive training data and disentangles hidden factors of input data through multi-level nonlinear mappings. (2) Different than existing pattern recognition systems which sequentially design or train their key components, deep learning is able to jointly optimize all the components and crate synergy through close interactions among them. (3) While most machine learning models can be approximated with neural networks with shallow structures, for some tasks, the expressive power of deep models increases exponentially as their architectures go deep. Deep models are especially good at learning global contextual feature representation with their deep structures. (4) Benefitting from the large learning capacity of deep models, some classical computer vision challenges can be recast as high-dimensional data transform problems and can be solved from new perspectives. Finally, some open questions and future works regarding to deep learning in object recognition, detection, and segmentation will be discussed.
