• Title: Combined Person Classification with Airborne Optical Sectioning
• Authors: Indrajit Kurmi, David C. Schedl, and Oliver Bimber
• Abstract summary: Fully autonomous drones have been demonstrated to find lost or injured persons under strongly occluding forest canopy. Airborne Optical Sectioning (AOS), a novel synthetic aperture imaging technique, together with deep-learning-based classification enables high detection rates under realistic search-and-rescue conditions. We demonstrate that false detections can be significantly suppressed and true detections boosted by combining classifications from multiple AOS rather than single integral images.

• Abstract: Fully autonomous drones have been demonstrated to find lost or injured persons under strongly occluding forest canopy. Airborne Optical Sectioning (AOS), a novel synthetic aperture imaging technique, together with deep-learning-based classification enables high detection rates under realistic search-and-rescue conditions. We demonstrate that false detections can be significantly suppressed and true detections boosted by combining classifications from multiple AOS rather than single integral images. This improves classification rates especially in the presence of occlusion. To make this possible, we modified the AOS imaging process to support large overlaps between subsequent integrals, enabling real-time and on-board scanning and processing of groundspeeds up to 10 m/s.

  This paper seeks transferable prior knowledge from detector-friendly images. It is based on statistical observations that, the heavily degraded regions of detector-friendly (DFUI) and underwater images have evident feature distribution gaps. Our method with higher speeds and less parameters still performs better than transformer-based detectors.

  Sequential deepfake detection aims to identify forged facial regions with the correct sequence for recovery. The recovery of forged images requires knowledge of the manipulation model to implement inverse transformations. We propose Multi-Collaboration and Multi-Supervision Network (MMNet) that handles various spatial scales and sequential permutations in forged face images.

  We recouple independent constraints of detection and description of multimodal feature learning with a mutual weighting strategy. We propose a detector that possesses a large receptive field and is equipped with learnable non-maximum suppression layers. We build a benchmark that contains cross visible, infrared, near-infrared and synthetic aperture radar image pairs for evaluating the performance of features in feature matching and image registration tasks.

  We present a first prototype that finds people fully autonomously in densely occluded forests. In the course of 17 field experiments conducted over various forest types, our drone found 38 out of 42 hidden persons. Deep-learning-based person classification is unaffected by sparse and error-prone sampling within one-dimensional synthetic apertures.

  We present an end-to-end approach for Automatic Meter Reading (AMR) focusing on unconstrained scenarios. Our main contribution is the insertion of a new stage in the AMR pipeline, called corner detection and counter classification. We show that our AMR system achieves impressive recognition rates (i.e., > 99%) when rejecting readings made with lower confidence values.

  We show that a popular forensic approach trains a neural network to distinguish real from synthetic content. We develop five attack case studies on a state-of-the-art classifier that achieves an area under the ROC curve (AUC) of 0.95 on almost all existing image generators. We also develop a black-box attack that, with no access to the target classifier, reduces the AUC to 0.22.
