Title Improving Online Continual Learning Performance and Stability with Temporal Ensembles Type Conference Article
Year 2023 Publication 2nd Conference on Lifelong Learning Agents Abbreviated Journal
Volume Issue Pages
Keywords
Abstract Neural networks are very effective when trained on large datasets for a large number of iterations. However, when they are trained on non-stationary streams of data and in an online fashion, their performance is reduced (1) by the online setup, which limits the availability of data, (2) due to catastrophic forgetting because of the non-stationary nature of the data. Furthermore, several recent works (Caccia et al., 2022; Lange et al., 2023) arXiv:2205.13452 showed that replay methods used in continual learning suffer from the stability gap, encountered when evaluating the model continually (rather than only on task boundaries). In this article, we study the effect of model ensembling as a way to improve performance and stability in online continual learning. We notice that naively ensembling models coming from a variety of training tasks increases the performance in online continual learning considerably. Starting from this observation, and drawing inspirations from semi-supervised learning ensembling methods, we use a lightweight temporal ensemble that computes the exponential moving average of the weights (EMA) at test time, and show that it can drastically increase the performance and stability when used in combination with several methods from the literature.

Title Multi-Rate Sensor Fusion for Unconstrained Near-Eye Gaze Estimation Type Conference Article
Year 2023 Publication Proceedings of the 2023 Symposium on Eye Tracking Research and Applications Abbreviated Journal
Volume Issue Pages 1-8
Keywords
Abstract The power requirements of video-oculography systems can be prohibitive for high-speed operation on portable devices. Recently, low-power alternatives such as photosensors have been evaluated, providing gaze estimates at high frequency with a trade-off in accuracy and robustness. Potentially, an approach combining slow/high-fidelity and fast/low-fidelity sensors should be able to exploit their complementarity to track fast eye motion accurately and robustly. To foster research on this topic, we introduce OpenSFEDS, a near-eye gaze estimation dataset containing approximately 2M synthetic camera-photosensor image pairs sampled at 500 Hz under varied appearance and camera position. We also formulate the task of sensor fusion for gaze estimation, proposing a deep learning framework consisting in appearance-based encoding and temporal eye-state dynamics. We evaluate several single- and multi-rate fusion baselines on OpenSFEDS, achieving 8.7% error decrease when tracking fast eye movements with a multi-rate approach vs. a gaze forecasting approach operating with a low-speed sensor alone.

Title Overview of DocILE 2023: Document Information Localization and Extraction Type Conference Article
Year 2023 Publication International Conference of the Cross-Language Evaluation Forum for European Languages Abbreviated Journal
Volume 14163 Issue Pages 276–293
Keywords Information Extraction; Computer Vision; Natural Language Processing; Optical Character Recognition; Document Understanding
Abstract This paper provides an overview of the DocILE 2023 Competition, its tasks, participant submissions, the competition results and possible future research directions. This first edition of the competition focused on two Information Extraction tasks, Key Information Localization and Extraction (KILE) and Line Item Recognition (LIR). Both of these tasks require detection of pre-defined categories of information in business documents. The second task additionally requires correctly grouping the information into tuples, capturing the structure laid out in the document. The competition used the recently published DocILE dataset and benchmark that stays open to new submissions. The diversity of the participant solutions indicates the potential of the dataset as the submissions included pure Computer Vision, pure Natural Language Processing, as well as multi-modal solutions and utilized all of the parts of the dataset, including the annotated, synthetic and unlabeled subsets.

Title CCLM: Class-Conditional Label Noise Modelling Type Conference Article
Year 2023 Publication 11th Iberian Conference on Pattern Recognition and Image Analysis Abbreviated Journal
Volume 14062 Issue Pages 3-14
Keywords
Abstract The performance of deep neural networks highly depends on the quality and volume of the training data. However, cost-effective labelling processes such as crowdsourcing and web crawling often lead to data with noisy (i.e., wrong) labels. Making models robust to this label noise is thus of prime importance. A common approach is using loss distributions to model the label noise. However, the robustness of these methods highly depends on the accuracy of the division of training set into clean and noisy samples. In this work, we dive in this research direction highlighting the existing problem of treating this distribution globally and propose a class-conditional approach to split the clean and noisy samples. We apply our approach to the popular DivideMix algorithm and show how the local treatment fares better with respect to the global treatment of loss distribution. We validate our hypothesis on two popular benchmark datasets and show substantial improvements over the baseline experiments. We further analyze the effectiveness of the proposal using two different metrics – Noise Division Accuracy and Classiness.

Title Prediction of Malignancy in Lung Cancer using several strategies for the fusion of Multi-Channel Pyradiomics Images Type Conference Article
Year 2023 Publication 7th Workshop on Digital Image Processing for Medical and Automotive Industry in the framework of SYNASC 2023 Abbreviated Journal
Volume Issue Pages
Keywords
Abstract This study shows the generation process and the subsequent study of the representation space obtained by extracting GLCM texture features from computer-aided tomography (CT) scans of pulmonary nodules (PN). For this, data from 92 patients from the Germans Trias i Pujol University Hospital were used. The workflow focuses on feature extraction using Pyradiomics and the VGG16 Convolutional Neural Network (CNN). The aim of the study is to assess whether the data obtained have a positive impact on the diagnosis of lung cancer (LC). To design a machine learning (ML) model training method that allows generalization, we train SVM and neural network (NN) models, evaluating diagnosis performance using metrics defined at slice and nodule level.

Title Toward a Thermal Image-Like Representation Type Conference Article
Year 2023 Publication Proceedings of the 18th International Joint Conference on Computer Vision, Imaging and Computer Graphics Theory and Applications Abbreviated Journal
Volume Issue Pages 133-140
Keywords
Abstract This paper proposes a novel model to obtain thermal image-like representations to be used as an input in any thermal image compressive sensing approach (e.g., thermal image: filtering, enhancing, super-resolution). Thermal images offer interesting information about the objects in the scene, in addition to their temperature. Unfortunately, in most of the cases thermal cameras acquire low resolution/quality images. Hence, in order to improve these images, there are several state-of-the-art approaches that exploit complementary information from a low-cost channel (visible image) to increase the image quality of an expensive channel (infrared image). In these SOTA approaches visible images are fused at different levels without paying attention the images acquire information at different bands of the spectral. In this paper a novel approach is proposed to generate thermal image-like representations from a low cost visible images, by means of a contrastive cycled GAN network. Obtained representations (synthetic thermal image) can be later on used to improve the low quality thermal image of the same scene. Experimental results on different datasets are presented.

Title Efficient Deep Learning Ensemble for Skin Lesion Classification Type Conference Article
Year 2023 Publication Proceedings of the 18th International Joint Conference on Computer Vision, Imaging and Computer Graphics Theory and Applications Abbreviated Journal
Volume Issue Pages 303-314
Keywords
Abstract Vision Transformers (ViTs) are deep learning techniques that have been gaining in popularity in recent years.
In this work, we study the performance of ViTs and Convolutional Neural Networks (CNNs) on skin lesions classification tasks, specifically melanoma diagnosis. We show that regardless of the performance of both architectures, an ensemble of them can improve their generalization. We also present an adaptation to the Gram-OOD* method (detecting Out-of-distribution (OOD) using Gram matrices) for skin lesion images. Moreover, the integration of super-convergence was critical to success in building models with strict computing and training time constraints. We evaluated our ensemble of ViTs and CNNs, demonstrating that generalization is enhanced by placing first in the 2019 and third in the 2020 ISIC Challenge Live Leaderboards

Title Video-based Skill Assessment for Golf: Estimating Golf Handicap Type Conference Article
Year 2023 Publication Proceedings of the 6th International Workshop on Multimedia Content Analysis in Sports Abbreviated Journal
Volume Issue Pages 31-39
Keywords
Abstract Automated skill assessment in sports using video-based analysis holds great potential for revolutionizing coaching methodologies. This paper focuses on the problem of skill determination in golfers by leveraging deep learning models applied to a large database of video recordings of golf swings. We investigate different regression, ranking and classification based methods and compare to a simple baseline approach. The performance is evaluated using mean squared error (MSE) as well as computing the percentages of correctly ranked pairs based on the Kendall correlation. Our results demonstrate an improvement over the baseline, with a 35% lower mean squared error and 68% correctly ranked pairs. However, achieving fine-grained skill assessment remains challenging. This work contributes to the development of AI-driven coaching systems and advances the understanding of video-based skill determination in the context of golf.

Title Scaling Vision-Based End-to-End Autonomous Driving with Multi-View Attention Learning Type Conference Article
Year 2023 Publication International Conference on Intelligent Robots and Systems Abbreviated Journal
Volume Issue Pages
Keywords
Abstract On end-to-end driving, human driving demonstrations are used to train perception-based driving models by imitation learning. This process is supervised on vehicle signals (e.g., steering angle, acceleration) but does not require extra costly supervision (human labeling of sensor data). As a representative of such vision-based end-to-end driving models, CILRS is commonly used as a baseline to compare with new driving models. So far, some latest models achieve better performance than CILRS by using expensive sensor suites and/or by using large amounts of human-labeled data for training. Given the difference in performance, one may think that it is not worth pursuing vision-based pure end-to-end driving. However, we argue that this approach still has great value and potential considering cost and maintenance. In this paper, we present CIL++, which improves on CILRS by both processing higher-resolution images using a human-inspired HFOV as an inductive bias and incorporating a proper attention mechanism. CIL++ achieves competitive performance compared to models which are more costly to develop. We propose to replace CILRS with CIL++ as a strong vision-based pure end-to-end driving baseline supervised by only vehicle signals and trained by conditional imitation learning.

Title REACT2023: The First Multiple Appropriate Facial Reaction Generation Challenge Type Conference Article
Year 2023 Publication Proceedings of the 31st ACM International Conference on Multimedia Abbreviated Journal
Volume Issue Pages 9620–9624
Keywords
Abstract The Multiple Appropriate Facial Reaction Generation Challenge (REACT2023) is the first competition event focused on evaluating multimedia processing and machine learning techniques for generating human-appropriate facial reactions in various dyadic interaction scenarios, with all participants competing strictly under the same conditions. The goal of the challenge is to provide the first benchmark test set for multi-modal information processing and to foster collaboration among the audio, visual, and audio-visual behaviour analysis and behaviour generation (a.k.a generative AI) communities, to compare the relative merits of the approaches to automatic appropriate facial reaction generation under different spontaneous dyadic interaction conditions. This paper presents: (i) the novelties, contributions and guidelines of the REACT2023 challenge; (ii) the dataset utilized in the challenge; and (iii) the performance of the baseline systems on the two proposed sub-challenges: Offline Multiple Appropriate Facial Reaction Generation and Online Multiple Appropriate Facial Reaction Generation, respectively. The challenge baseline code is publicly available at https://github.com/reactmultimodalchallenge/baseline_react2023.

Title Application on the Loop of Multimodal Image Fusion: Trends on Deep-Learning Based Approaches Type Conference Article
Year 2023 Publication 13th International Conference on Pattern Recognition Systems Abbreviated Journal
Volume 14234 Issue Pages 25–36
Keywords
Abstract Multimodal image fusion allows the combination of information from different modalities, which is useful for tasks such as object detection, edge detection, and tracking, to name a few. Using the fused representation for applications results in better task performance. There are several image fusion approaches, which have been summarized in surveys. However, the existing surveys focus on image fusion approaches where the application on the loop of multimodal image fusion is not considered. On the contrary, this study summarizes deep learning-based multimodal image fusion for computer vision (e.g., object detection) and image processing applications (e.g., semantic segmentation), that is, approaches where the application module leverages the multimodal fusion process to enhance the final result. Firstly, we introduce image fusion and the existing general frameworks for image fusion tasks such as multifocus, multiexposure and multimodal. Then, we describe the multimodal image fusion approaches. Next, we review the state-of-the-art deep learning multimodal image fusion approaches for vision applications. Finally, we conclude our survey with the trends of task-driven multimodal image fusion.

Title Exploiting Graph Structured Cross-Domain Representation for Multi-domain Recommendation Type Conference Article
Year 2023 Publication European Conference on Information Retrieval – ECIR 2023: Advances in Information Retrieval Abbreviated Journal
Volume 13980 Issue Pages 49–65
Keywords
Abstract Multi-domain recommender systems benefit from cross-domain representation learning and positive knowledge transfer. Both can be achieved by introducing a specific modeling of input data (i.e. disjoint history) or trying dedicated training regimes. At the same time, treating domains as separate input sources becomes a limitation as it does not capture the interplay that naturally exists between domains. In this work, we efficiently learn multi-domain representation of sequential users’ interactions using graph neural networks. We use temporal intra- and inter-domain interactions as contextual information for our method called MAGRec (short for Multi-dom Ain Graph-based Recommender). To better capture all relations in a multi-domain setting, we learn two graph-based sequential representations simultaneously: domain-guided for recent user interest, and general for long-term interest. This approach helps to mitigate the negative knowledge transfer problem from multiple domains and improve overall representation. We perform experiments on publicly available datasets in different scenarios where MAGRec consistently outperforms state-of-the-art methods. Furthermore, we provide an ablation study and discuss further extensions of our method.

Title IterInv: Iterative Inversion for Pixel-Level T2I Models Type Conference Article
Year 2023 Publication 37th Annual Conference on Neural Information Processing Systems Abbreviated Journal
Volume Issue Pages
Keywords
Abstract Large-scale text-to-image diffusion models have been a ground-breaking development in generating convincing images following an input text prompt. The goal of image editing research is to give users control over the generated images by modifying the text prompt. Current image editing techniques are relying on DDIM inversion as a common practice based on the Latent Diffusion Models (LDM). However, the large pretrained T2I models working on the latent space as LDM suffer from losing details due to the first compression stage with an autoencoder mechanism. Instead, another mainstream T2I pipeline working on the pixel level, such as Imagen and DeepFloyd-IF, avoids this problem. They are commonly composed of several stages, normally with a text-to-image stage followed by several super-resolution stages. In this case, the DDIM inversion is unable to find the initial noise to generate the original image given that the super-resolution diffusion models are not compatible with the DDIM technique. According to our experimental findings, iteratively concatenating the noisy image as the condition is the root of this problem. Based on this observation, we develop an iterative inversion (IterInv) technique for this stream of T2I models and verify IterInv with the open-source DeepFloyd-IF model. By combining our method IterInv with a popular image editing method, we prove the application prospects of IterInv. The code will be released at \url{this https URL}.
