• Abstract: A powerful way to adapt a visual recognition model to a new domain is through image translation. However, common image translation approaches only focus on generating data from the same distribution as the target domain. Given a cross-modal application, such as pedestrian detection from aerial images, with a considerable shift in data distribution between infrared (IR) to visible (RGB) images, a translation focused on generation might lead to poor performance as the loss focuses on irrelevant details for the task. In this paper, we propose HalluciDet, an IR-RGB image translation model for object detection. Instead of focusing on reconstructing the original image on the IR modality, it seeks to reduce the detection loss of an RGB detector, and therefore avoids the need to access RGB data. This model produces a new image representation that enhances objects of interest in the scene and greatly improves detection performance. We empirically compare our approach against state-of-the-art methods for image translation and for fine-tuning on IR, and show that our HalluciDet improves detection accuracy in most cases by exploiting the privileged information encoded in a pre-trained RGB detector.

  Key bottleneck in object detection in IR images is lack of sufficient labeled training data. We seek to leverage cues from the RGB modality to scale object detectors to the IR modality, while preserving model performance in the RGB modality. We first pretrain these factor matrices on the RGB modality, for which plenty of training data are assumed to exist and then augment only a few trainable parameters for training on the IR modality to avoid over-fitting.

  The insufficient number of annotated thermal infrared (TIR) image datasets hinders TIR image-based deep learning networks to have comparable performances to that of RGB. We propose a modified multidomain RGB to TIR image translation model focused on edge preservation to employ annotated RGB images with challenging labels. We have enabled the supervised learning of deep TIR image-based optical flow estimation and object detection that ameliorated in end point error by 56.5% on average and the best object detection mAP of 23.9% respectively.

  Cross-modal person re-identification (ReID) is challenging due to the large domain shift in data distributions between RGB and IR modalities. This paper introduces a novel approach for a creating intermediate virtual domain that acts as bridges between the two main domains. We devised a new method to generate images between visible and infrared domains that provide additional information to train a deep ReID model.

• Bi-directional Cross-Modality Feature Propagation with Separation-and-Aggregation Gate for RGB-D Semantic Segmentation [59.94819184452694]
  Depth information has proven to be a useful cue in the semantic segmentation of RGBD images for providing a geometric counterpart to the RGB representation. Most existing works simply assume that depth measurements are accurate and well-aligned with the RGB pixels and models the problem as a cross-modal feature fusion. In this paper, we propose a unified and efficient Crossmodality Guided to not only effectively recalibrate RGB feature responses, but also to distill accurate depth information via multiple stages and aggregate the two recalibrated representations alternatively.
