SIFT-VTON: Geometric Correspondence Supervision on Cross-Attention for Virtual Try-On

Kosuke Takemoto, Takafumi Koshinaka

Diffusion-based virtual try-on methods achieve photorealistic synthesis through cross-attention mechanisms that transfer garment features to target body regions. However, these app…

Reading Is Believing: Revisiting Language Bottleneck Models for Image Classification

Honori Udo, Takafumi Koshinaka

We revisit language bottleneck models as an approach to ensuring the explainability of deep learning models for image classification. Because of inevitable information loss incurre…

Generalized domain adaptation framework for parametric back-end in speaker recognition

Qiongqiong Wang, Koji Okabe, Kong Aik Lee +1

State-of-the-art speaker recognition systems comprise a speaker embedding front-end followed by a probabilistic linear discriminant analysis (PLDA) back-end. The effectiveness of t…

Image Captioners Sometimes Tell More Than Images They See

Honori Udo, Takafumi Koshinaka

Image captioning, a.k.a. "image-to-text," which generates descriptive text from given images, has been rapidly developing throughout the era of deep learning. To what extent is the…

Task-aware Warping Factors in Mask-based Speech Enhancement

Qiongqiong Wang, Kong Aik Lee, Takafumi Koshinaka +2

This paper proposes the use of two task-aware warping factors in mask-based speech enhancement (SE). One controls the balance between speech-maintenance and noise-removal in traini…

Xi-Vector Embedding for Speaker Recognition

Kong Aik Lee, Qiongqiong Wang, Takafumi Koshinaka

We present a Bayesian formulation for deep speaker embedding, wherein the xi-vector is the Bayesian counterpart of the x-vector, taking into account the uncertainty estimate. On th…
