Abstract: This work presents a novel domain adaptation strategy for deep learning-based approaches to solve the image dehazing
problem. Firstly, a large set of synthetic images is generated by using a realistic 3D graphic simulator; these synthetic
images contain different densities of haze, which are used for training the model that is later adapted to any real scenario.
The adaptation process requires just a few images to fine-tune the model parameters. The proposed strategy allows
overcoming the limitation of training a given model with few images. In other words, the proposed strategy implements
the adaptation of a haze removal model trained with synthetic images to real scenarios. It should be noticed that it is quite
difficult, if not impossible, to have large sets of pairs of real-world images (with and without haze) to train in a supervised
way dehazing algorithms. Experimental results are provided showing the validity of the proposed domain adaptation
strategy.

Abstract: This paper presents a multi-view scheme to tackle the challenging problem of the self-occlusion in human pose estimation problem. The proposed approach first obtains the human body joints of a set of images, which are captured from different views at the same time. Then, it enhances the obtained joints by using a
multi-view scheme. Basically, the joints from a given view are used to enhance poorly estimated joints from another view, especially intended to tackle the self occlusions cases. A network architecture initially proposed for the monocular case is adapted to be used in the proposed multi-view scheme. Experimental results and
comparisons with the state-of-the-art approaches on Human3.6m dataset are presented showing improvements in the accuracy of body joints estimations.

Abstract: Large-scale accurate labels are very important to the Deep Neural Networks to train them and assure high performance. However, it is very expensive to create a clean dataset since usually it relies on human interaction. To this purpose, the labelling process is made cheap with a trade-off of having noisy labels. Learning with Noisy Labels is an active area of research being at the same time very challenging. The recent advances in Self-supervised learning and robust loss functions have helped in advancing noisy label research. In this paper, we propose a loss correction method that relies on dynamic weights computed based on the model training. We extend the existing Contrast to Divide algorithm coupled with DivideMix using a new class-conditional weighted scheme. We validate the method using the standard noise experiments and achieved encouraging results.

Abstract: This paper proposes a novel CNN architecture for the multi-thermal image super-resolution problem. In the proposed scheme, the multi-images are synthetically generated by downsampling and slightly shifting the given image; noise is also added to each of these synthesized images. The proposed architecture uses two
attention blocks paths to extract high-frequency details taking advantage of the large information extracted from multiple images of the same scene. Experimental results are provided, showing the proposed scheme has overcome the state-of-the-art approaches.
