• Abstract summary: We propose a novel yet effective method for SOD, coined SODGAN, which can generate infinite high-quality image-mask pairs. For the first time, our SODGAN tackles SOD with synthetic data directly generated from the generative model. Our approach achieves a new SOTA performance in semi/weakly-supervised methods, and even outperforms several fully-supervised SOTA methods.

• Abstract: Although deep salient object detection (SOD) has achieved remarkable progress, deep SOD models are extremely data-hungry, requiring large-scale pixel-wise annotations to deliver such promising results. In this paper, we propose a novel yet effective method for SOD, coined SODGAN, which can generate infinite high-quality image-mask pairs requiring only a few labeled data, and these synthesized pairs can replace the human-labeled DUTS-TR to train any off-the-shelf SOD model. Its contribution is three-fold. 1) Our proposed diffusion embedding network can address the manifold mismatch and is tractable for the latent code generation, better matching with the ImageNet latent space. 2) For the first time, our proposed few-shot saliency mask generator can synthesize infinite accurate image synchronized saliency masks with a few labeled data. 3) Our proposed quality-aware discriminator can select highquality synthesized image-mask pairs from noisy synthetic data pool, improving the quality of synthetic data. For the first time, our SODGAN tackles SOD with synthetic data directly generated from the generative model, which opens up a new research paradigm for SOD. Extensive experimental results show that the saliency model trained on synthetic data can achieve $98.4\%$ F-measure of the saliency model trained on the DUTS-TR. Moreover, our approach achieves a new SOTA performance in semi/weakly-supervised methods, and even outperforms several fully-supervised SOTA methods.

  We introduce DSplats, a novel method that directly denoises multiview images using Gaussian-based Reconstructors to produce realistic 3D assets. Our experiments demonstrate that DSplats not only produces high-quality, spatially consistent outputs, but also sets a new standard in single-image to 3D reconstruction.

  Long-tailed distributions in image recognition pose a considerable challenge due to the severe imbalance between a few dominant classes. Recently, the use of large generative models to create synthetic data for image classification has been realized. We propose the use of synthetic data as a complement to long-tailed datasets to eliminate the impact of data imbalance.
