Book Deep Neural Networks for Semantic Segmentation

Download or read book Deep Neural Networks for Semantic Segmentation written by Abhishake Kumar Bojja and published by . This book was released on 2020 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Segmenting image into multiple meaningful regions is an essential task in Computer Vision. Deep Learning has been highly successful for segmentation, benefiting from the availability of the annotated datasets and deep neural network architectures. However, depth-based hand segmentation, an important application area of semantic segmentation, has yet to benefit from rich and large datasets. In addition, while deep methods provide robust solutions, they are often not efficient enough for low-powered devices. In this thesis, we focus on these two problems. To tackle the problem of lack of rich data, we propose an automatic method for generating high-quality annotations and introduce a large scale hand segmentation dataset. By exploiting the visual cues given by an RGBD sensor and a pair of colored gloves, we automatically generate dense annotations for two-hand segmentation. Our automatic annotation method lowers the cost/complexity of creating high-quality datasets and makes it easy to expand the dataset in the future. To reduce the computational requirement and allow real-time segmentation on low power devices, we propose a new representation and architecture for deep networks that predict segmentation maps based on Voronoi Diagrams. Voronoi Diagrams split space into discrete regions based on proximity to a set of points making them a powerful representation of regions, which we can then use to represent our segmentation outcomes. Specifically, we propose to estimate the location and class for these sets of points, which are then rasterized into an image. Notably, we use a differentiable definition of the Voronoi Diagram based on the softmax operator, enabling its use as a decoder layer in an end-to-end trainable network. As rasterization can take place at any given resolution, our method especially excels at rendering high-resolution segmentation maps, given a low-resolution image. We believe that our new HandSeg dataset will open new frontiers in Hand Segmentation research, and our cost-effective automatic annotation pipeline can benefit other relevant labeling tasks. Our newly proposed segmentation network enables high-quality segmentation representations that are not practically possible on low power devices using existing approaches.

Download or read book Multi faceted Deep Learning written by Jenny Benois-Pineau and published by Springer Nature. This book was released on 2021-10-20 with total page 321 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book covers a large set of methods in the field of Artificial Intelligence - Deep Learning applied to real-world problems. The fundamentals of the Deep Learning approach and different types of Deep Neural Networks (DNNs) are first summarized in this book, which offers a comprehensive preamble for further problem–oriented chapters. The most interesting and open problems of machine learning in the framework of Deep Learning are discussed in this book and solutions are proposed. This book illustrates how to implement the zero-shot learning with Deep Neural Network Classifiers, which require a large amount of training data. The lack of annotated training data naturally pushes the researchers to implement low supervision algorithms. Metric learning is a long-term research but in the framework of Deep Learning approaches, it gets freshness and originality. Fine-grained classification with a low inter-class variability is a difficult problem for any classification tasks. This book presents how it is solved, by using different modalities and attention mechanisms in 3D convolutional networks. Researchers focused on Machine Learning, Deep learning, Multimedia and Computer Vision will want to buy this book. Advanced level students studying computer science within these topic areas will also find this book useful.

Book Accelerating the Training of Convolutional Neural Networks for Image Segmentation with Deep Active Learning

Download or read book Accelerating the Training of Convolutional Neural Networks for Image Segmentation with Deep Active Learning written by Wei Tao Chen and published by . This book was released on 2020 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Image semantic segmentation is an important problem in computer vision. However, Training a deep neural network for semantic segmentation in supervised learning requires expensive manual labeling. Active learning (AL) addresses this problem by automatically selecting a subset of the dataset to label and iteratively improve the model. This minimizes labeling costs while maximizing performance. Yet, deep active learning for image segmentation has not been systematically studied in the literature. This thesis offers three contributions. First, we compare six different state-of-the-art querying methods, including uncertainty, Bayesian, and out-of-distribution methods, in the context of active learning for image segmentation. The comparison uses the standard dataset Cityscapes, as well as randomly generated data, and the state-of-the-art image segmentation architecture DeepLab. Our results demonstrate subtle but robust differences between the querying methods, which we analyze and explain. Second, we propose a novel way to query images by counting the number of pixels with acquisition values above a certain threshold. Our counting method outperforms the standard averaging method. Lastly, we demonstrate that the previous two findings remain consistent for both whole images and image crops. Furthermore, we provide an in-depth discussion of deep active learning and results from supplementary experiments. First, we studied active learning in the context of image classification with the MNIST dataset. We observed an interesting phenomenon where active learning querying methods perform worse than random sampling in the early cycles but overtake random sampling at a break-even point. This break-even point can be controlled by varying model capacity, sample diversity, and temperature scaling. The difference in performances of the six querying methods is larger than in the case of image segmentation. Second, we attempt to explore the theoretical optimal query by querying samples with the lowest accuracy and querying with a trained expert model. Although they turned out to be suboptimal, their results would hopefully shed light on the subject. Lastly, we present the experiment results from using SegNet and FCN. With these architectures, our querying methods did not perform any better than random sampling. Nevertheless, those negative results demonstrate some of the difficulties of active learning for image segmentation.

Book Learning Robust Representations in Random Forest and Deep Neural Networks for Semantic Segmentation

Download or read book Learning Robust Representations in Random Forest and Deep Neural Networks for Semantic Segmentation written by Byeongkeun Kang and published by . This book was released on 2018 with total page 148 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: As semantic segmentation provides the class and the location of objects in a captured scene, it has been one of the core algorithms in many computer vision applications including autonomous driving, robot navigation, surveillance camera system, and human-machine interaction. Most of these applications demand high accuracy, robustness, and efficiency to understand a captured scene accurately in a timely manner in order to avoid accidents, to provide a meaningful warning, and to communicate naturally. We address this needs by using two popular approaches: random forest and deep neural network. We start by introducing a cascaded random forest for binary class segmentation. The framework first detects regions of interest and then segments foreground in the regions. Since the detection reduces the regions for the segmentation forest, the cascaded scheme improves efficiency and accuracy. We then explore learning more robust representations in a random forest. Since predetermined constraints in typical feature extractors restrict learning and extracting optimal features, we present a random forest framework that learns the weights, shapes, and sparsities of feature extractors. We propose an unconstrained filter, an iterative optimization algorithm for learning, a processing pipeline for inference. Experimental results demonstrate that the proposed method achieves real-time semantic segmentation using limited computational and memory resources. Moreover, we present a method to learn/extract depth-adaptive features in a deep neural network. It accomplishes a step toward depth-invariant feature learning and extracting. Since typical neural networks receive inputs from predetermined locations regardless of the distance from the camera, it is challenging to generalize the features of objects at various distances. Hence, we propose the depth-adaptive multiscale convolution layer consisting of the adaptive perception neuron and the in-layer multiscale neuron. The adaptive neuron is to adjust the receptive field at each spatial location using the depth information. The multiscale neuron is to learn features at multiple scales. Experimental results show that the proposed method outperforms the state-of-the-art methods without any additional layers or pre/post-processing. Lastly, we present applications of segmentation including sign language fingerspelling recognition and hand articulation tracking. We also present a potential data augmentation method using generative adversarial networks.
