• Authors: R. Austin McEver, Bowen Zhang, B.S. Manjunath
• Abstract summary: We introduce Context Matched Collages, which leverage explicit context labels to combine unused background examples with existing annotated data to synthesize additional training samples. By combining a set of our generated collage images with the original training set, we see improved performance using three different object detectors on DUSIA.

• Abstract: The quality and size of training sets often limit the performance of many state of the art object detectors. However, in many scenarios, it can be difficult to collect images for training, not to mention the costs associated with collecting annotations suitable for training these object detectors. For these reasons, on challenging video datasets such as the Dataset for Underwater Substrate and Invertebrate Analysis (DUSIA), budgets may only allow for collecting and providing partial annotations. To aid in the challenges associated with training with limited and partial annotations, we introduce Context Matched Collages, which leverage explicit context labels to combine unused background examples with existing annotated data to synthesize additional training samples that ultimately improve object detection performance. By combining a set of our generated collage images with the original training set, we see improved performance using three different object detectors on DUSIA, ultimately achieving state of the art object detection performance on the dataset.

  Localizing objects in an unsupervised manner poses significant challenges due to the absence of key visual information. We propose a single-stage learning framework, dubbed PEEKABOO, for unsupervised object localization. The key idea is to selectively hide parts of an image and leverage the remaining image information to infer the location of objects without explicit supervision.

  Training deep-learning-based vision systems require the manual annotation of a significant number of images. We propose a human-in-the-loop dataset collection method that uses a web application. To counterbalance the workload and performance by encouraging the collection of multi-view object image datasets in an enjoyable manner, we propose three types of online visual feedback features.

  ComplETR is designed to explicitly complete missing annotations in partially annotated dense scene datasets. This reduces the need to annotate every object instance in the scene thereby reducing annotation cost. We show performance improvement for several popular detectors such as Faster R-CNN, Cascade R-CNN, CenterNet2, and Deformable DETR.

  We introduce a novel semi-supervised framework by learning instance tracking networks with only a labeled image dataset and unlabeled video sequences. We show that even when only trained with images, the learned feature representation is robust to instance appearance variations. In addition, we integrate this module into single-stage instance segmentation and pose estimation frameworks.

  We investigate the problem of classifying - from a single image - the level of content in a cup or a drinking glass. We use adversarial training in a generic source dataset and then refine the training with a task-specific dataset. We show that transfer learning with adversarial training in the source domain consistently improves the classification accuracy on the test set.

  We argue that captions contain much richer information about the image, including attributes of objects and their relations. We present a method that uses the attributes in this "textual scene graph" to train object detectors. We empirically demonstrate that the resulting model achieves state-of-the-art results on several challenging object detection datasets.
