• Abstract: Mixup - a neural network regularization technique based on linear interpolation of labeled sample pairs - has stood out by its capacity to improve model's robustness and generalizability through a surprisingly simple formalism. However, its extension to the field of object detection remains unclear as the interpolation of bounding boxes cannot be naively defined. In this paper, we propose to leverage the inherent region mapping structure of anchors to introduce a mixup-driven training regularization for region proposal based object detectors. The proposed method is benchmarked on standard datasets with challenging detection settings. Our experiments show an enhanced robustness to image alterations along with an ability to decontextualize detections, resulting in an improved generalization power.

  Unsupervised domain adaptation can mitigate the need for extensive pixel-level annotations to train semantic segmentation networks. We introduce a novel approach to domain adaptation, leveraging the synergy of internal and external information within entropy-based adversarial networks. We devised a probability-sharing network that integrates diverse information for more effective segmentation.

  This paper proposes a one-stage framework that detects defective patterns directly without the modeling process. Explicit information that could indicate the position of defects is intentionally excluded to avoid learning any direct mapping. Results show that the proposed method is 2.9% higher than the SOTA methods in F1-Score, while substantially outperforming SOTA methods in generalizability.

  We focus on a specific use case in anomaly detection where the distribution of normal samples is supported by a lower-dimensional manifold. We adapt a self-supervised learning regime that exploits discriminative information during training but focuses on the submanifold of normal examples. We achieve a new state-of-the-art result on the MVTec AD dataset -- a challenging benchmark for visual anomaly detection in the manufacturing domain.

  We train a generative model to learn perturbations from data and define specifications with respect to the output of the learned model. A unique challenge arising from this setting is that existing verifiers cannot tightly approximate sigmoid activations. We propose a general meta-algorithm for handling sigmoid activations which leverages classical notions of counter-example-guided abstraction refinement.

  In the field of object detection, the task of object localization is typically accomplished through a dedicated that emphasizes bounding box regression. This traditionally predicts the object's position by regressing the box's center position and scaling factors. In this paper, we address the shortcomings of previous methods through theoretical analysis and experimental verification. Our approach enhances the accuracy of bounding box localization by refining the box edges based on the estimated distribution at the object's boundary.

We propose a novel framework for semi-supervised domain adaptation by unifying the learning of opposite structures.
