  • Adaptive Wing Loss for Robust Face Alignment via Heatmap Regression

    Creator:
    Wang, Xinyao
    Abstract:
    Heatmap regression has became one of the mainstream approaches to localize facial landmarks. As Convolutional Neural Network (CNN) and Recurrent Neural Network (RNN) are becoming popular in solving computer vision tasks, extensive research has been done on these architectures. However, the loss function for heatmap regression is rarely studied. In...

  • Individual Fairness Optimization in Machine Learning with Minimax Loss and an Abstain Option

    Creator:
    Behnoudfar, Ali
    Abstract:
    In this thesis, a new learning algorithm is introduced that is targeted towards individual fairness. In order to be individually fair, mispredictions need to be avoided as each such prediction means the learning algorithm was unfair towards some individual. Therefore, achieving individual fairness implies having a perfect classifier, which is...

  • Deep Convolutional Network on Point Clouds for 3D Scene Understanding

    Creator:
    Wu, Wenxuan
    Abstract:
    As one of the most popular data types, the point cloud is widely used in various appli- cations, including computer vision, computer graphics and robotics. The capability to directly measure 3D point clouds is invaluable in those applications as depth information could remove a lot of the segmentation ambiguities in...

  • Uncertainty in Deep Learning with Implicit Neural Networks

    Creator:
    Ratzlaff, Neale
    Abstract:
    The ability to extract uncertainties from predictions is crucial for the adoption of deep learning systems to safety-critical applications. Uncertainty estimates can be used as a failure signal, which is necessary for automating complex tasks where safety is a concern. Furthermore, current deep learning systems do not provide uncertainty estimates,...

  • Leveraging Structures of the Data in Deep Learning

    Creator:
    Li, Xingyi
    Abstract:
    The performance of deep learning frameworks could be significantly improved through considering the particular underlying structures for each dataset. In this thesis, I summarize our three work about boosting the performance of deep learning models through leveraging structures of the data. In the first work, we theoretically justify that, for...

  • Toward Disentangling the Activations of the Deep Networks via Low-dimensional Embedding and Non-negative Factorization

    Creator:
    Khorram, Saeed
    Abstract:
    In this thesis, we introduce a novel Explanation Neural Network (XNN) to explain the predictions made by a deep network. The XNN works by embedding a high-dimensional activation vector of a deep network layer non-linearly into a low-dimensional explanation space while retaining faithfulness i.e., the original deep learning predictions can...

  • Deep Segmentation in Plant Phenomics

    Creator:
    Kaur, Damanpreet
    Abstract:
    The abilities of plant biologists to characterize the genetic basis of physiological traits are limited by their abilities to obtain quantitative data representing precise details of trait variation and mainly to collect this data on a high-throughput scale at low cost. Deep learning-based methods have demonstrated unprecedented potential to automate...

  • Video Analysis : Techniques for Semi-Supervised Video Object Instance Segmentation and Tracking-by-Detection in the Wild

    Creator:
    Firl, Alrik K.
    Abstract:
    This thesis consists of two major components. The first part is concerned with video object instance segmentation (VOS), which is the task of assigning per-pixel labels perframe of a video sequence to indicate foreground object instance membership, given the first frame ground truth mask. VOS has myriad applications, from video...
