• Abstract: Recent studies in biometric-based identification tasks have shown that deep learning methods can achieve better performance. These methods generally extract the global features as descriptor to represent the original image. Nonetheless, it does not perform well for biometric identification under fine-grained tasks. The main reason is that the single image descriptor contains insufficient information to represent image. In this paper, we present a dual global descriptor model, which combines multiple global descriptors to exploit multi level image features. Moreover, we utilize a contrastive loss to enlarge the distance between image representations of confusing classes. The proposed framework achieves the top2 on the CVPR2022 Biometrics Workshop Pet Biometric Challenge.

  We introduce the first semi-supervised (semi-paired) framework for label-to-image translation. In the semi-paired setting, the model has access to a small set of paired data and a larger set of unpaired images and labels. We propose a training algorithm for this shared network, and we present a rare classes sampling algorithm to focus on under-represented classes.

  Image-level weakly-supervised segmentation (WSSS) reduces the usually vast data annotation cost by surrogate segmentation masks during training. Our work is based on two techniques for improving CAMs; importance sampling, which is a substitute for GAP, and the feature similarity loss. We reformulate both techniques based on binomial posteriors of multiple independent binary problems. This has two benefits; their performance is improved and they become more general, resulting in an add-on method that can boost virtually any WSSS method.

Although transformer-based heads are considered to achieve better results than graph-based branches, we argue that with the proper training strategy graph-based methods can demonstrate just a small accuracy drop.
