Bio-inspired Color Constancy: From Gray Anchoring Theory to Gray Pixel Methods
Kai-Fu Yang, Fu-Ya Luo, Yong-Jie Li
Color constancy is a fundamental ability of many biological visual systems and a crucial step in computer imaging systems. Bio-inspired modeling offers a promising way to elucidate…
Visual Attention Graph
Kai-Fu Yang, Yong-Jie Li
Visual attention plays a critical role when our visual system executes active visual tasks by interacting with the physical scene. However, how to encode the visual object relation…
Gray Anchoring: a New Computational Theory for Biological Color Constancy
Kai-Fu Yang, Dajun Xing, Yong-Jie Li
It is still challenging for computer vision to imitate human color perception, e.g., color constancy, which is a fundamental perceptual ability in humans to perceive, interpret and…
Nighttime Thermal Infrared Image Colorization with Feedback-based Object Appearance Learning
Fu-Ya Luo, Shu-Lin Liu, Yi-Jun Cao +4
Stable imaging in adverse environments (e.g., total darkness) makes thermal infrared (TIR) cameras a prevalent option for night scene perception. However, the low contrast and lack…
Memory-Guided Collaborative Attention for Nighttime Thermal Infrared Image Colorization
Fu-Ya Luo, Yi-Jun Cao, Kai-Fu Yang +1
Nighttime thermal infrared (NTIR) image colorization, also known as translation of NTIR images into daytime color images (NTIR2DC), is a promising research direction to facilitate…
Learning to Adapt to Light
Kai-Fu Yang, Cheng Cheng, Shi-Xuan Zhao +2
Light adaptation or brightness correction is a key step in improving the contrast and visual appeal of an image. There are multiple light-related tasks (for example, low-light enha…
Learning Crisp Boundaries Using Deep Refinement Network and Adaptive Weighting Loss
Yi-Jun Cao, Chuan Lin, Yong-Jie Li
Significant progress has been made in boundary detection with the help of convolutional neural networks. Recent boundary detection models not only focus on real object boundary det…
A Unified Structure for Efficient RGB and RGB-D Salient Object Detection
Peng Peng, Yong-Jie Li
Salient object detection (SOD) has been well studied in recent years, especially using deep neural networks. However, SOD with RGB and RGB-D images is usually treated as two differ…
Line Drawings of Natural Scenes Guide Visual Attention
Kai-Fu Yang, Wen-Wen Jiang, Teng-Fei Zhan +1
Visual search is an important strategy of the human visual system for fast scene perception. The guided search theory suggests that the global layout or other top-down sources of s…
Improving Color Constancy by Discounting the Variation of Camera Spectral Sensitivity
Shao-Bing Gao, Ming Zhang, Chao-Yi Li +1
It is an ill-posed problem to recover the true scene colors from a color biased image by discounting the effects of scene illuminant and camera spectral sensitivity (CSS) at the sa…
Salient Structure Detection by Context-Guided Visual Search
Kai-Fu Yang, Hui Li, Chao-Yi Li +1
We define the task of salient structure (SS) detection to unify the saliency-related tasks like fixation prediction, salient object detection, and other detection of structures of…
