• Abstract: Text detection enables us to extract rich information from images. In this paper, we focus on how to generate bounding boxes that are appropriate to grasp text areas on books to help implement automatic text detection. We attempt not to improve a learning-based model by training it with an enough amount of data in the target domain but to leverage it, which has been already trained with another domain data. We develop algorithms that construct the bounding boxes by improving and leveraging the results of a learning-based method. Our algorithms can utilize different learning-based approaches to detect scene texts. Experimental evaluations demonstrate that our algorithms work well in various situations where books are roughly placed.

  We study self-supervised pre-training methods based on masked label prediction. We perform experiments on historical handwritten (Bentham) and historical printed datasets. The evaluation shows that the self-supervised pre-training on data from the target domain is very effective, but it struggles to outperform transfer learning from closely related domains.

  This paper proposes a method that leverages linguistic knowledge from a large text corpus to replace the traditional one-hot encoding used in auto-regressive scene text spotting and recognition models. We generate text distributions that align well with scene text datasets, removing the need for in-domain fine-tuning. Experimental results show that our method not only improves recognition accuracy but also enables more accurate localization of words.

  Active learning algorithms identify the most critical and informative samples in an unlabeled dataset and label only those samples, instead of the complete set. We present a case study of deep learning-based mmWave beam selection, where labeling is performed by a compute-intensive algorithm based on exhaustive search. Our results show that using an active learning algorithm for class-imbalanced datasets can reduce labeling overhead by up to 50% for this dataset.

  We explore the potential of continual self-supervised learning to alleviate the catastrophic forgetting problem in handwritten text recognition. Our method consists in adding intermediate layers called adapters for each task, and efficiently distilling knowledge from the previous model while learning the current task. We attain state-of-the-art performance on English, Italian and Russian scripts, whilst adding only a few parameters per task.

• Human-in-the-Loop Disinformation Detection: Stance, Sentiment, or Something Else? [93.91375268580806]
  Both politics and pandemics have recently provided ample motivation for the development of machine learning-enabled disinformation (a.k.a. fake news) detection algorithms. Existing literature has focused primarily on the fully-automated case, but the resulting techniques cannot reliably detect disinformation on the varied topics, sources, and time scales required for military applications. By leveraging an already-available analyst as a human-in-the-loop, canonical machine learning techniques of sentiment analysis, aspect-based sentiment analysis, and stance detection become plausible methods to use for a partially-automated disinformation detection system.
