Background modeling and subtraction are core components in video Processing. To this end one arms to, recover and continuously update a representation of the scene that is compared with the current input to perform subtraction. Most of the existing methods treat each pixel independently and attempt to model the background perturbation through statistical modeling such as a mixture of Gaussians. While Such methods have satisfactory performance in many scenarios, they do not model the relationships and correlation amongst nearby pixels. Such correlation between pixels exists both in space and across time especially when the scene consists of image structures moving across space. Waving trees, beach, escalators and natural scenes with rain or snow are examples of such scenes. In this paper, we propose a method for differentiating between image Structures and motion that are persistent and repeated from those that are new. Towards capturing the appearance characteristics of such scenes, we propose the use of an appropriate subspace created from image structures. Furthermore, the dynamical characteristics are captured by the use of a prediction mechanism in such subspace. Since the model must adapt to long-term changes in the background, an incremental method for fast online adaptation of the model parameters is proposed. Given Such adaptive models, robust and meaningful measures for detection that consider both structural and motion changes are considered. Promising experimental results that include qualitative and quantitative comparisons with existing background modeling/subtraction techniques demonstrate the very promising performance of the proposed framework when dealing with complex backgrounds.

Disentangled generation network for enlarged license plate recognition and a unified dataset

Chenglong Li, Xiaobin Yang, Guohao Wang, Aihua Zheng, Chang Tan, Jin Tang

Summary: License plate recognition is crucial in various practical applications, however, recognizing license plates of large vehicles is challenging due to low resolution, contamination, low illumination, and occlusion. To address this problem, a novel data generation framework based on the Disentangled Generation Network is proposed to ensure the generation diversity and integrity for robust enlarged license plate recognition.

Assessing domain gap for continual domain adaptation in object detection

Anh-Dzung Doan, Bach Long Nguyen, Surabhi Gupta, Ian Reid, Markus Wagner, Tat-Jun Chin

Summary: To ensure reliable object detection in autonomous systems, the detector needs to adapt to changes in appearance caused by environmental factors. We propose a selective adaptation approach using domain gap as a criterion to improve the efficiency of the detector's operation.

Wavelet-based network for high dynamic range imaging

Tianhong Dai, Wei Li, Xilei Cao, Jianzhuang Liu, Xu Jia, Ales Leonardis, Youliang Yan, Shanxin Yuan

Summary: This study proposes a novel frequency-guided deep neural network (FHDRNet) for high dynamic range (HDR) imaging from multiple low dynamic range (LDR) images, aiming to address ghosting artifacts. By conducting HDR fusion in the frequency domain, the network utilizes low-frequency signals to remove specific ghosting artifacts and high-frequency signals to preserve details. Extensive experiments demonstrate that this approach achieves state-of-the-art performance.

Feature learning based on connectivity estimation for unbiased mammography mass classification

Guobin Li, Reyer Zwiggelaar

Summary: Breast cancer is the most commonly diagnosed female malignancy worldwide. Recent developments in deep convolutional neural networks have shown promising performance for breast cancer detection and classification. However, biased features can be learned due to variations in appearance and small datasets. To address this issue, a densely connected convolutional network (DenseNet) was trained using texture features representing different physical morphological representations as inputs. The use of connectivity estimation and nearest neighbors improved the network's unbiased prediction. The approach achieved higher diagnostic accuracy and provided visual explanations for model predictions.

AdaNI: Adaptive Noise Injection to improve adversarial robustness

Yuezun Li, Cong Zhang, Honggang Qi, Siwei Lyu

Summary: Deep Neural Networks (DNNs) are vulnerable to adversarial perturbations, limiting their applicability in safe-critical scenarios. To address this, a new method called AdaNI is proposed to increase feature randomness through adaptive noise injection, improving adversarial robustness. Extensive experiments demonstrate the efficacy of AdaNI against various white-box and black-box attacks, as well as its applicability in DeepFake detection.

MDC-Net: Multi-domain constrained kernel estimation network for blind image super resolution

Hang Wang, Zhenyu Ding, Cheng Cheng, Yuhai Li, Hongbin Sun

Summary: Learning-based super resolution has made remarkable progress in improving image quality, but the performance decreases when the degradation kernel changes. Blind SR networks can estimate the degradation kernel and adapt well in realistic scenarios, improving performance and runtime. This paper proposes a design that imposes constraints for the kernel estimation network in both the image domain and kernel domain, resulting in high-quality images and efficient runtime.
