Download or read book From Human Attention to Computational Attention written by Matei Mancas and published by Springer. This book was released on 2016-06-29 with total page 456 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This both accessible and exhaustive book will help to improve modeling of attention and to inspire innovations in industry. It introduces the study of attention and focuses on attention modeling, addressing such themes as saliency models, signal detection and different types of signals, as well as real-life applications. The book is truly multi-disciplinary, collating work from psychology, neuroscience, engineering and computer science, amongst other disciplines. What is attention? We all pay attention every single moment of our lives. Attention is how the brain selects and prioritizes information. The study of attention has become incredibly complex and divided: this timely volume assists the reader by drawing together work on the computational aspects of attention from across the disciplines. Those working in the field as engineers will benefit from this book’s introduction to the psychological and biological approaches to attention, and neuroscientists can learn about engineering work on attention. The work features practical reviews and chapters that are quick and easy to read, as well as chapters which present deeper, more complex knowledge. Everyone whose work relates to human perception, to image, audio and video processing will find something of value in this book, from students to researchers and those in industry.
Download or read book Computational Perception for Multi modal Document Understanding written by Zoya Bylinskii and published by . This book was released on 2018 with total page 192 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Multimodal documents occur in a variety of forms, as graphs in technical reports, diagrams in textbooks, and graphic designs in bulletins. Humans can efficiently process the visual and textual information contained within to make decisions on topics including business, healthcare, and science. Building the computational tools to understand multimodal documents can have important applications for web search, information retrieval, captioning and summarization, and automated design. This thesis makes contributions on two fronts: (i) to the development of data collection methods for measuring how humans perceive multimodal documents (i.e., where they look, what they find important), and (ii) to the development of computer vision tools for automatically parsing and making predictions about multimodal documents (i.e., the subject matter they are about). Specifically, the crowdsourced attention data captured from our novel user interfaces is used to train neural network models to predict where people look in graphic designs and information visualizations, with demonstrated applications to thumbnailing, design retargeting, and interactive feedback within graphic design tools. Separately, our models for detecting visual elements and parsing text elements in infographics (information graphics) are used for topic prediction and to present a system for automatic summarization. This thesis makes contributions at the interface of human and computer vision, with applications to human-computer interfaces and design.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The International Workshop on “Human Interaction with Machines” is the sixth in a successful series of workshops that were established by Shanghai Jiao Tong University and Technische Universität Berlin. The goal of those workshops is to bring together researchers from both universities in order to present research results to an international community. The series of workshops started in 1990 with the International Workshop on “Artificial Intelligence” and was continued with the International Workshop on “Advanced Software Technology” in 1994. Both workshops have been hosted by Shanghai Jiaotong University. In 1998 the third wo- shop took place in Berlin. This International Workshop on “Communi- tion Based Systems” was essentially based on results from the Graduiertenkolleg on Communication Based Systems that was funded by the German Research Society (DFG) from 1991 to 2000. The fourth Int- national Workshop on “Robotics and its Applications” was held in Sha- hai in 2000. The fifth International Workshop on “The Internet Challenge: Technology and Applications” was hosted by TU Berlin in 2002.

Download or read book Multi modal Representation Learning Towards Visual Reasoning written by Hedi Ben-Younes and published by . This book was released on 2019 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The quantity of images that populate the Internet is dramatically increasing. It becomes of critical importance to develop the technology for a precise and automatic understanding of visual contents. As image recognition systems are becoming more and more relevant, researchers in artificial intelligence now seek for the next generation vision systems that can perform high-level scene understanding. In this thesis, we are interested in Visual Question Answering (VQA), which consists in building models that answer any natural language question about any image. Because of its nature and complexity, VQA is often considered as a proxy for visual reasoning. Classically, VQA architectures are designed as trainable systems that are provided with images, questions about them and their answers. To tackle this problem, typical approaches involve modern Deep Learning (DL) techniques. In the first part, we focus on developping multi-modal fusion strategies to model the interactions between image and question representations. More specifically, we explore bilinear fusion models and exploit concepts from tensor analysis to provide tractable and expressive factorizations of parameters. These fusion mechanisms are studied under the widely used visual attention framework: the answer to the question is provided by focusing only on the relevant image regions. In the last part, we move away from the attention mechanism and build a more advanced scene understanding architecture where we consider objects and their spatial and semantic relations. All models are thoroughly experimentally evaluated on standard datasets and the results are competitive with the literature.

This book was released on 2010-04-20 with total page 347 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The International Gesture Workshops (GW) are interdisciplinary events for those researching gesture-based communication across the disciplines. The focus of these events is a shared interest in understanding gestures and sign language in their many facets, and using them for advancing human–machine interaction. Since 1996, International Gesture Workshops have been held roughly every second year, with fully reviewed proceedings published by Springer. The International Gesture Workshop GW 2009 was hosted by Bielefeld University’s Center for Interdisciplinary Research (ZiF – Zentrum für interdisziplinäre Forschung) during February 25–27, 2009. Like its predecessors, GW 2009 aimed to provide a platform for participants to share, discuss, and criticize recent and novel research with a multidisciplinary audience. More than 70 computer scientists, linguistics, psychologists, neuroscientists as well as dance and music scientists from 16 countries met to present and exchange their newest results under the umbrella theme “Gesture in Embodied Communication and Human–Computer Interaction. ” Consistent with the steady growth of research activity in this area, a large number of high-quality submissions were received, which made GW 2009 an exciting and important event for anyone interested in gesture-related technological research relevant to human–computer interaction. In line with the practice of previous gesture workshops, presenters were invited to submit theirs papers for publication in a subsequent peer-reviewed publication of high quality. The present book is the outcome of this effort. Representing the research work from eight countries, it contains a selection of 28 thoroughly reviewed articles.
