• Abstract: Designing an automatic checkout system for retail stores at the human level accuracy is challenging due to similar appearance products and their various poses. This paper addresses the problem by proposing a method with a two-stage pipeline. The first stage detects class-agnostic items, and the second one is dedicated to classify product categories. We also track the objects across video frames to avoid duplicated counting. One major challenge is the domain gap because the models are trained on synthetic data but tested on the real images. To reduce the error gap, we adopt domain generalization methods for the first-stage detector. In addition, model ensemble is used to enhance the robustness of the 2nd-stage classifier. The method is evaluated on the AI City challenge 2022 -- Track 4 and gets the F1 score $40\%$ on the test A set. Code is released at the link https://github.com/cybercore-co-ltd/aicity22-track4.

  Trajectory prediction is a challenging problem that requires considering interactions among multiple actors. Data-driven approaches have been used to address this complex problem, but they suffer from unreliable predictions under distribution shifts during test time. We propose several online learning methods using regression loss from the ground truth of observed data. Our method surpasses the performance of existing state-of-the-art online learning methods in terms of both prediction accuracy and computational efficiency.

  We propose an efficient abnormal event detection model based on a lightweight masked auto-encoder (AE) applied at the video frame level. We introduce an approach to weight tokens based on motion gradients, thus shifting the focus from the static background scene to the foreground objects. We generate synthetic abnormal events to augment the training videos, and task the masked AE model to jointly reconstruct the original frames.

  This article introduces the solutions of the two champion teams, MMfruit' for the detection track and MMfruitSeg' for the segmentation track, in OpenImage Challenge 2019. It is commonly known that for an object detector, the shared feature at the end of the backbone is not appropriate for both classification and regression. We propose the Decoupling Head (DH) to disentangle the object classification and regression via the self-learned optimal feature extraction.
