• Abstract: Object detection and instance segmentation in remote sensing images is a fundamental and challenging task, due to the complexity of scenes and targets. The latest methods tried to take into account both the efficiency and the accuracy of instance segmentation. In order to improve both of them, in this paper, we propose a single-shot convolutional neural network structure, which is conceptually simple and straightforward, and meanwhile makes up for the problem of low accuracy of single-shot networks. Our method, termed with SSS-Net, detects targets based on the location of the object's center and the distances between the center and the points on the silhouette sampling with non-uniform angle intervals, thereby achieving abalanced sampling of lines in mask generation. In addition, we propose a non-uniform polar template IoU based on the contour template in polar coordinates. Experiments on both the Airbus Ship Detection Challenge dataset and the ISAIDships dataset show that SSS-Net has strong competitiveness in precision and speed for ship instance segmentation.

  It is expensive and tedious to obtain large scale paired sparse-canned point sets for training from real scanned sparse data. We propose a self-supervised point cloud upsampling network, named SPU-Net, to capture the inherent upsampling patterns of points lying on the underlying object surface. We conduct various experiments on both synthetic and real-scanned datasets, and the results demonstrate that we achieve comparable performance to the state-of-the-art supervised methods.

• Reinforced Axial Refinement Network for Monocular 3D Object Detection [160.34246529816085]
  Monocular 3D object detection aims to extract the 3D position and properties of objects from a 2D input image. Conventional approaches sample 3D bounding boxes from the space and infer the relationship between the target object and each of them, however, the probability of effective samples is relatively small in the 3D space. We propose to start with an initial prediction and refine it gradually towards the ground truth, with only one 3d parameter changed in each step. This requires designing a policy which gets a reward after several steps, and thus we adopt reinforcement learning to optimize it.
