SketchSampler: Sketch-based 3D Reconstruction via View-dependent Depth Sampling

Chenjian Gao, Qian Yu, Lu Sheng +2

Reconstructing a 3D shape based on a single sketch image is challenging due to the large domain gap between a sparse, irregular sketch and a regular, dense 3D shape. Existing works…

A Simple Test-Time Method for Out-of-Distribution Detection

Ke Fan, Yikai Wang, Qian Yu +2

Neural networks are known to produce over-confident predictions on input images, even when these images are out-of-distribution (OOD) samples. This limits the applications of neura…

Human-centric Spatio-Temporal Video Grounding With Visual Transformers

Zongheng Tang, Yue Liao, Si Liu +5

In this work, we introduce a novel task - Humancentric Spatio-Temporal Video Grounding (HC-STVG). Unlike the existing referring expression tasks in images or videos, by focusing on…

3D Shape Reconstruction from Free-Hand Sketches

Jiayun Wang, Jierui Lin, Qian Yu +3

Sketches are the most abstract 2D representations of real-world objects. Although a sketch usually has geometrical distortion and lacks visual cues, humans can effortlessly envisio…

Unsupervised Sketch-to-Photo Synthesis

Runtao Liu, Qian Yu, Stella Yu

Humans can envision a realistic photo given a free-hand sketch that is not only spatially imprecise and geometrically distorted but also without colors and visual details. We study…

SketchyScene: Richly-Annotated Scene Sketches

Changqing Zou, Qian Yu, Ruofei Du +6

We contribute the first large-scale dataset of scene sketches, SketchyScene, with the goal of advancing research on sketch understanding at both the object and scene level. The dat…

Large Scale Scene Text Verification with Guided Attention

Dafang He, Yeqing Li, Alexander Gorban +5

Many tasks are related to determining if a particular text string exists in an image. In this work, we propose a new framework that learns this task in an end-to-end way. The frame…

The Devil is in the Middle: Exploiting Mid-level Representations for Cross-Domain Instance Matching

Qian Yu, Xiaobin Chang, Yi-Zhe Song +2

Many vision problems require matching images of object instances across different domains. These include fine-grained sketch-based image retrieval (FG-SBIR) and Person Re-identific…

Attention-based Extraction of Structured Information from Street View Imagery

Zbigniew Wojna, Alex Gorban, Dar-Shyang Lee +4

We present a neural network model - based on CNNs, RNNs and a novel attention mechanism - which achieves 84.2% accuracy on the challenging French Street Name Signs (FSNS) dataset,…

Large Scale Business Discovery from Street Level Imagery

Qian Yu, Christian Szegedy, Martin C. Stumpe +4

Search with local intent is becoming increasingly useful due to the popularity of the mobile device. The creation and maintenance of accurate listings of local businesses worldwide…
