Title: Research on Hyperspectral and Multispectral Image Fusion
Abstract: Hyperspectral image (HSI) contains abundant spectral information, which enables accurate identification of materials. Therefore, they find broad application in earth observation, military detection, environmental monitoring, geological exploration, and precision agriculture. However, there is the trade-off between the spatial resolution and the spectral resolution for the imaging sensor, that is, HSI with high spectral resolution suffers from low spatial resolution, which limits the application of HSI. The imaging sensor can acquire the multispectral image (MSI) of much higher spatial resolution. Hence, fusing low-resolution HSI with high-resolution MSI of the same scene has become an effective way to obtain high-resolution HSI (fused HSI). This report focuses on the aforementioned main problems and challenges in HSI-MSI fusion, and introduces the newly proposed tensor based and CNN based fusion methods.

Title: Adversarial Robustness in Computer Vision: Attack, Defense, and Beyond
Abstract: This talk provides an overview of our recent progress on adversarial robustness in computer vision. It consists of three main parts, such as adversarial attacks, adversarial defenses, and their applications. For the adversarial attack, this talk will present the analysis of the visual low-frequency property and introduce a universal attack and a black-box attack. In terms of adversarial defense, this talk will introduce two anti-models, one is a NAS-based defense based on anti-bandits, and the other is about anti-perturbation inference. In addition to attacks and defenses, this talk will conclude with an analysis of the sensitivity of adversarial samples in visual retrieval tasks.

Title: Image Segmentation: Techniques and Challenges
Abstract: Image segmentation is one of the basic problems in computer vision and artificial intelligence field. In recent years, deep learning based image segmentation methods have achieved great success in autonomous driving, intelligent interaction, multimedia analysis and other fields. However, it is still difficult to obtain high precision, high efficiency and high resolution prediction results. In addition, the complementary effect of multi-modal data also provides a new paradigm for the study of image segmentation. This talk will first review the mainstream image segmentation methods, then analyze existing problems and challenges. On these basis, this talk will give new image segmentation methods and discuss the application of relevant methods in the field of autonomous driving and 3D vision, to provide new ideas for future research.

Title: Towards robust and efficient person search
Abstract: Person search, which aims to localize and identify a target person from a gallery of realistic, uncropped scene images, has recently emerged as a practical task with real-world applications. To tackle this task, we need to address two fundamental tasks in computer vision, i.e., pedestrian detection and person re-identification (re-id). Both detection and re-id are very challenging tasks and have received tremendous attention in the past decade. This report includes a brief review of the development of person search frameworks, i.e., one-step vs. two-step models. It also includes several of our recent works towards robust and efficient person search. For example, we build a context graph to improve robustness, while constructing an anchor-free model to yield high efficiency. Furthermore, we introduce the weakly supervised and unsupervised setting for person search, which shows great potential in reducing manual annotations.

Title: Synthesizing Graphic Layouts with Vector-Wireframe Adversarial Networks
Abstract: Layout is important for graphic design and scene generation. We propose a novel Generative Adversarial Network, called LayoutGAN, that synthesizes layouts by modeling geometric relations of different types of 2D elements. The generator of LayoutGAN takes as input a set of randomly-placed 2D graphic elements, represented by vectors and uses self-attention modules to refine their labels and geometric parameters jointly to produce a realistic layout. Accurate alignment is critical for good layouts. We thus propose a novel differentiable wireframe rendering layer that maps the generated layout to a wireframe image, upon which a CNN-based discriminator is used to optimize the layouts in image space. We validate the effectiveness of LayoutGAN in various experiments including MNIST digit generation, document layout generation, clipart abstract scene generation, and tangram graphic design. Besides, we further introduce an attribute-conditioned LayoutGAN with user data by incorporating elements' content-based attributes as conditions, which demonstrates successful practical applications for automatic advertisement design.
