• Abstract: State-of-the-art segmentation performances are achieved by deep neural networks. Training these networks from only a few training examples is challenging while producing annotated images that provide supervision is tedious. Recently, self-supervision, i.e. designing a neural pipeline providing synthetic or indirect supervision, has proved to significantly increase generalization performances of models trained on few shots. This paper introduces one such neural pipeline in the context of microscopic image segmentation. By leveraging the rather simple content of these images a trainee network can be mentored by a referee network which has been previously trained on synthetically generated pairs of corrupted/correct region masks.

• Efficient Visualization of Neural Networks with Generative Models and Adversarial Perturbations [0.0]
  This paper presents a novel approach for deep visualization via a generative network, offering an improvement over existing methods. Our model simplifies the architecture by reducing the number of networks used, requiring only a generator and a discriminator. Our model requires less prior training knowledge and uses a non-adversarial training process, where the discriminator acts as a guide.

• Image segmentation with traveling waves in an exactly solvable recurrent neural network [71.74150501418039]
  We show that a recurrent neural network can effectively divide an image into groups according to a scene's structural characteristics. We present a precise description of the mechanism underlying object segmentation in this network. We then demonstrate a simple algorithm for object segmentation that generalizes across inputs ranging from simple geometric objects in grayscale images to natural images.

  We show that adversarially-trained semantic segmentation networks can be used to perform image inpainting and generation. We argue that perceptually-aligned gradients promote a better understanding of a neural network's learned representations and aid in making neural networks more interpretable.

  Deep image prior was introduced as an effective prior for image reconstruction. Despite its impressive reconstructive properties, the approach is slow when compared to learned or traditional reconstruction techniques. We develop a two-stage learning paradigm to address the computational challenge.

  We analyze the spaces of images encoded by generative neural networks of the BigGAN architecture. We find that generic multiplicative perturbations of neural network parameters away from the photo-realistic point often lead to networks generating images which appear as "artistic renditions" of the corresponding objects.

  We jointly trained a deep network to perform image classification and to predict neural activity in macaque primary visual cortex (V1) We found that co-training on monkey V1 data leads to increased robustness despite the absence of those distortions during training. Our results also demonstrated that the network's representations become more brain-like as their robustness improves.

  We propose to decompose the image generation process into independent causal mechanisms that we train without direct supervision. By exploiting appropriate inductive biases, these mechanisms disentangle object shape, object texture, and background. We show that the counterfactual images can improve out-of-distribution with a marginal drop in performance on the original classification task.
