• Abstract: Although prior state-of-the-art (SOTA) deblurring networks achieve high metric scores on synthetic datasets, there are two challenges which prevent them from perceptual image deblurring. First, a deblurring model overtrained on synthetic datasets may collapse in a broad range of unseen real-world scenarios. Second, the conventional metrics PSNR and SSIM may not correctly reflect the perceptual quality observed by human eyes. To this end, we propose DeblurDiNAT, a generalizable and efficient encoder-decoder Transformer which restores clean images visually close to the ground truth. We adopt an alternating dilation factor structure to capture local and global blur patterns. We propose a local cross-channel learner to assist self-attention layers to learn short-range cross-channel relationships. In addition, we present a linear feed-forward network and a non-linear dual-stage feature fusion module for faster feature propagation across the network. Compared to nearest competitors, our model demonstrates the strongest generalization ability and achieves the best perceptual quality on mainstream image deblurring datasets with 3%-68% fewer parameters.

  We propose a dual-stream vision transformer architecture that processes RGB and optical flow inputs for efficient sewer defect classification. Our key idea is to use self-attention regularization to harness the complementary strengths of the RGB and motion streams. By leveraging motion cues through a self-attention regularizer, we align and enhance RGB attention maps, enabling the network to concentrate on pertinent input regions.

  Our objective is language-based search of large-scale image and video datasets. For this task, the approach that consists of independently mapping text and vision to a joint embedding space, a.k.a. dual encoders, is attractive as retrieval scales.
