  Title Image rain removal and illumination enhancement done in one go Type Journal Article
  Year 2022 Publication Knowledge-Based Systems Abbreviated Journal KBS  
  Volume 252 Issue Pages 109244  
  Keywords  
  Abstract Rain removal plays an important role in the restoration of degraded images. Recently, CNN-based methods have achieved remarkable success. However, these approaches neglect that the appearance of real-world rain is often accompanied by low light conditions, which will further degrade the image quality, thereby hindering the restoration mission. Therefore, it is very indispensable to jointly remove the rain and enhance illumination for real-world rain image restoration. To this end, we proposed a novel spatially-adaptive network, dubbed SANet, which can remove the rain and enhance illumination in one go with the guidance of degradation mask. Meanwhile, to fully utilize negative samples, a contrastive loss is proposed to preserve more natural textures and consistent illumination. In addition, we present a new synthetic dataset, named DarkRain, to boost the development of rain image restoration algorithms in practical scenarios. DarkRain not only contains different degrees of rain, but also considers different lighting conditions, and more realistically simulates real-world rainfall scenarios. SANet is extensively evaluated on the proposed dataset and attains new state-of-the-art performance against other combining methods. Moreover, after a simple transformation, our SANet surpasses existing the state-of-the-art algorithms in both rain removal and low-light image enhancement.

  Title Toward Real-Time Pedestrian Detection Based on a Deformable Template Model Type Journal Article
  Year 2014 Publication IEEE Transactions on Intelligent Transportation Systems Abbreviated Journal TITS  
  Volume 15 Issue 1 Pages 355-364  
  Keywords  
  Abstract Most advanced driving assistance systems already include pedestrian detection systems. Unfortunately, there is still a tradeoff between precision and real time. For a reliable detection, excellent precision-recall such a tradeoff is needed to detect as many pedestrians as possible while, at the same time, avoiding too many false alarms; in addition, a very fast computation is needed for fast reactions to dangerous situations. Recently, novel approaches based on deformable templates have been proposed since these show a reasonable detection performance although they are computationally too expensive for real-time performance. In this paper, we present a system for pedestrian detection based on a hierarchical multiresolution part-based model. The proposed system is able to achieve state-of-the-art detection accuracy due to the local deformations of the parts while exhibiting a speedup of more than one order of magnitude due to a fast coarse-to-fine inference technique. Moreover, our system explicitly infers the level of resolution available so that the detection of small examples is feasible with a very reduced computational cost. We conclude this contribution by presenting how a graphics processing unit-optimized implementation of our proposed system is suitable for real-time pedestrian detection in terms of both accuracy and speed.

  Title Hierarchical On-line Appearance-Based Tracking for 3D Head Pose, Eyebrows, Lips, Eyelids and Irises Type Journal Article
  Year 2013 Publication Image and Vision Computing Abbreviated Journal IMAVIS  
  Volume 31 Issue 4 Pages 322-340  
  Keywords On-line appearance models; Levenberg–Marquardt algorithm; Line-search optimization; 3D face tracking; Facial action tracking; Eyelid tracking; Iris tracking  
  Abstract In this paper, we propose an On-line Appearance-Based Tracker (OABT) for simultaneous tracking of 3D head pose, lips, eyebrows, eyelids and irises in monocular video sequences. In contrast to previously proposed tracking approaches, which deal with face and gaze tracking separately, our OABT can also be used for eyelid and iris tracking, as well as 3D head pose, lips and eyebrows facial actions tracking. Furthermore, our approach applies an on-line learning of changes in the appearance of the tracked target. Hence, the prior training of appearance models, which usually requires a large amount of labeled facial images, is avoided. Moreover, the proposed method is built upon a hierarchical combination of three OABTs, which are optimized using a Levenberg–Marquardt Algorithm (LMA) enhanced with line-search procedures. This, in turn, makes the proposed method robust to changes in lighting conditions, occlusions and translucent textures, as evidenced by our experiments. Finally, the proposed method achieves head and facial actions tracking in real-time.

  Title Discriminative Compact Pyramids for Object and Scene Recognition Type Journal Article
  Year 2012 Publication Pattern Recognition Abbreviated Journal PR  
  Volume 45 Issue 4 Pages 1627-1636  
  Keywords  
  Abstract Spatial pyramids have been successfully applied to incorporating spatial information into bag-of-words based image representation. However, a major drawback is that it leads to high dimensional image representations. In this paper, we present a novel framework for obtaining compact pyramid representation. First, we investigate the usage of the divisive information theoretic feature clustering (DITC) algorithm in creating a compact pyramid representation. In many cases this method allows us to reduce the size of a high dimensional pyramid representation up to an order of magnitude with little or no loss in accuracy. Furthermore, comparison to clustering based on agglomerative information bottleneck (AIB) shows that our method obtains superior results at significantly lower computational costs. Moreover, we investigate the optimal combination of multiple features in the context of our compact pyramid representation. Finally, experiments show that the method can obtain state-of-the-art results on several challenging data sets.
