• Abstract: Extreme amodal detection is the task of inferring the 2D location of objects that are not fully visible in the input image but are visible within an expanded field-of-view. This differs from amodal detection, where the object is partially visible within the input image, but is occluded. In this paper, we consider the sub-problem of face detection, since this class provides motivating applications involving safety and privacy, but do not tailor our method specifically to this class. Existing approaches rely on image sequences so that missing detections may be interpolated from surrounding frames or make use of generative models to sample possible completions. In contrast, we consider the single-image task and propose a more efficient, sample-free approach that makes use of the contextual cues from the image to infer the presence of unseen faces. We design a heatmap-based extreme amodal object detector that addresses the problem of efficiently predicting a lot (the out-of-frame region) from a little (the image) with a selective coarse-to-fine decoder. Our method establishes strong results for this new task, even outperforming less efficient generative approaches.

  We propose a training-free method, dubbed DiffUHaul, for the object dragging task. We first apply attention masking in each denoising step to make the generation more disentangled across different objects. In the early denoising steps, we interpolate the attention features between source and target images to smoothly fuse new layouts with the original appearance.

  Recent object (COD) attempts to segment objects visually blended into their surroundings, which is extremely complex and difficult in real-world scenarios. We propose an effective unified collaborative pyramid network that mimics human behavior when observing vague images and camouflaged zooming in and out. Our framework consistently outperforms existing state-of-the-art methods in image and video COD benchmarks.

  We propose a lightweight, weakly supervised deep network to coarsely locate semantically salient regions. We then fuse multiple off-the-shelf deep models on these semantically salient regions as the pixel-wise saliency refinement. Our method is simple yet effective, which is the first attempt to consider the salient object detection mainly as an object-level semantic re-ranking problem.
