• Abstract: The existing object classification techniques based on descriptive features rely on object alignment to compute the similarity of objects for classification. This paper replaces the necessity of object alignment through sorting of feature. The object boundary is normalized and segmented into approximately convex segments and the segments are then sorted in descending order of their length. The segment length, number of extreme points in segments, area of segments, the base and the width of the segments - a bag of features - is used to measure the similarity between image boundaries. The proposed method is tested on datasets and acceptable results are observed.

  We study whether a hyperbolic geometry better matches the underlying structure of the object classification space. We incorporate a hyperbolic classifier in two-stage, keypoint-based, and transformer-based object detection architectures. We observe categorical class hierarchies emerging in the structure of the classification space, resulting in lower classification errors and boosting the overall object detection performance.

  We formulate a novel part-aware instance segmentation pipeline for industrial bin picking. We design a part-aware network to predict part masks and part-to-part offsets, followed by a part aggregation module to assemble the recognized parts into instances. We contribute the first instance segmentation dataset, which contains a variety of industrial objects that are thin and have non-trivial shapes.

  Instance segmentation is of great importance for many biological applications, such as study of neural cell interactions, plant phenotyping, and quantitatively measuring how cells react to drug treatment. Box-based instance segmentation methods capture objects via bounding boxes and then perform individual segmentation within each bounding box region. Our method first detects the center points of the objects, from which the bounding box parameters are then predicted. The segmentation branch reuses the object features as guidance to separate target object from the neighboring ones within the same bounding box region.

• Nonparametric clustering for image segmentation [0.0]
  We discuss the application of nonparametric clustering to image segmentation and provide an algorithm specific for this task. Pixel similarity is evaluated in terms of density of the color representation and the adjacency structure of the pixels is exploited. The proposed method works both to segment an image and to detect its boundaries and can be seen as a generalization to color images of the class of thresholding methods.

  Panopticpixel aims to provide an understanding of background (stuff) and instances of objects (things) at a pixel level. It combines the separate tasks of semantic segmentation (level classification) and instance segmentation to build a single unified scene understanding task. We present a fully convolution neural network that learns instance segmentation from semantic segmentation and instance contours.

  We propose a simple yet effective approach to enforce the network to pay attention to other parts of an object. Specifically, we perform clustering on image features to generate pseudo sub-categories labels within each annotated parent class. We conduct extensive analysis to validate the proposed method and show that our approach performs favorably against the state-of-the-art approaches.
