• Abstract summary: We introduce Grounded Situation Recognition (GSR), a task that requires producing structured semantic summaries of images. GSR presents important technical challenges: identifying semantic saliency, categorizing and localizing a large and diverse set of entities. We show initial findings on three exciting future directions enabled by our models: conditional querying, visual chaining, and grounded semantic aware image retrieval.

• Abstract: We introduce Grounded Situation Recognition (GSR), a task that requires producing structured semantic summaries of images describing: the primary activity, entities engaged in the activity with their roles (e.g. agent, tool), and bounding-box groundings of entities. GSR presents important technical challenges: identifying semantic saliency, categorizing and localizing a large and diverse set of entities, overcoming semantic sparsity, and disambiguating roles. Moreover, unlike in captioning, GSR is straightforward to evaluate. To study this new task we create the Situations With Groundings (SWiG) dataset which adds 278,336 bounding-box groundings to the 11,538 entity classes in the imsitu dataset. We propose a Joint Situation Localizer and find that jointly predicting situations and groundings with end-to-end training handily outperforms independent training on the entire grounding metric suite with relative gains between 8% and 32%. Finally, we show initial findings on three exciting future directions enabled by our models: conditional querying, visual chaining, and grounded semantic aware image retrieval.

  We propose S3PT a novel scene semantics and structure guided clustering to provide more scene-consistent objectives for self-supervised training. Our contributions are threefold: First, we incorporate semantic distribution consistent clustering to encourage better representation of rare classes such as motorcycles or animals. Second, we introduce object diversity consistent spatial clustering, to handle imbalanced and diverse object sizes, ranging from large background areas to small objects such as pedestrians and traffic signs. Third, we propose a depth-guided spatial clustering to regularize learning based on geometric information of the scene, thus further refining region separation on the feature level.

  This study explores the effectiveness of a Cut-and-Paste augmentation technique for semantic segmentation in satellite images. We adapt this augmentation, which usually requires labeled instances, to the case of semantic segmentation. Using the DynamicEarthNet dataset and a U-Net model for evaluation, we found that this augmentation significantly enhances the mIoU score on the test set from 37.9 to 44.1.

  We propose an Injected Noise Discriminator (INoD) which exploits principles of feature replacement and dataset discrimination for self-supervised representation learning. INoD interleaves feature maps from two disjoint datasets during their convolutional encoding and predicts the dataset affiliation of the resultant feature map as a pretext task. Our approach enables the network to learn unequivocal representations of objects seen in one dataset while observing them in conjunction with similar features from the disjoint dataset.

• Location-Aware Self-Supervised Transformers [74.76585889813207]
  We propose to pretrain networks for semantic segmentation by predicting the relative location of image parts. We control the difficulty of the task by masking a subset of the reference patch features visible to those of the query. Our experiments show that this location-aware pretraining leads to representations that transfer competitively to several challenging semantic segmentation benchmarks.

  Task for identification of potential hideouts termed Covert Geo-Location (CCGL) detection was proposed by Saha et al. No attempts were made to utilize semantic class information, which is crucial for obscured detection. In this paper, we propose a multitask-learning-based approach to achieve 2 goals - i) extraction of features having semantic class information; ii) robust training of the common encoder, exploiting large standard annotated datasets as training set for the auxiliary task (semantic segmentation).
