  • An analysis of training methodologies for deep visual trackers

    Creator:
    Fiez, Trevor
    Abstract:
    This thesis considers the problem of training convolutional neural networks for online visual tracking. A major challenge for single object visual tracking is that most training sets with frame-level track annotations are quite small, due to the prohibitive cost of manual annotation. Current training approaches either supplement the annotations with...

  • Window Axial Vision Transformer for Image Classification

    Creator:
    Lee, Jisoo
    Abstract:
    Currently, a popular approach to image classification uses the deep Transformer architecture. In a Transformer, the attention mechanism enables the model to learn efficiently with fewer computational resources than the convolutional neural networks (CNNs). In this thesis, we study the sparse attention mechanism widely used in the Transformers developed specifically...

  • Part-based and Uncertainty-Aware Few-shot Object Segmentation in Images

    Creator:
    Nguyen, Khoi D.
    Abstract:
    This dissertation addresses few-shot object segmentation in images. The goal of segmentation is to label every image pixel with a class of the object occupying that pixel, where the class may represent a semantic object category or instance. In few-shot segmentation, training and test datasets have different classes. Every new...

  • Action Segmentation with Limited Supervision

    Creator:
    Li, Jun
    Abstract:
    In this dissertation, we address action segmentation in videos under limited supervision. The goal of action segmentation is to predict an action class for each frame of a video. The limited supervision means ground truth labels of video frames are not available in training. We focus on three types of...

  • From shape-based object recognition and discovery to 3D scene interpretation

    Creator:
    Payet, Nadia
    Abstract:
    This dissertation addresses a number of inter-related and fundamental problems in computer vision. Specifically, we address object discovery, recognition, segmentation, and 3D pose estimation in images, as well as 3D scene reconstruction and scene interpretation. The key ideas behind our approaches include using shape as a basic object feature, and...

  • From multitarget tracking to event recognition in videos

    Creator:
    Brendel, William
    Abstract:
    This dissertation addresses two fundamental problems in computer vision—namely, multitarget tracking and event recognition in videos. These problems are challenging because uncertainty may arise from a host of sources, including motion blur, occlusions, and dynamic cluttered backgrounds. We show that these challenges can be successfully addressed by using a multiscale,...

  • Fine-Grained Object Recognition Under Limited Training Data

    Creator:
    Lam, Michael Q.
    Abstract:
    This dissertation addresses object recognition in challenging settings, where distinct object classes are visually very similar (e.g., species of birds and insects) and/or access to training examples of object classes is limited (e.g., due to the associated high costs of data annotation). In this dissertation, we present a variety of...

  • Robust and Efficient Classification of Videos in the Wild

    Creator:
    Mahasseni, Behrooz
    Abstract:
    Recognizing human actions in videos is a long-standing problem in computer vision with a wide range of applications including video surveillance, content retrieval, and sports analysis. This thesis focuses on addressing efficiency and robustness of video classification in unconstrained real-world settings. The thesis work can be broadly divided into four...

  • Semantic image segmentation using domain constraints

    Creator:
    Roy, Anirban
    Abstract:
    This dissertation addresses the problem of semantic labeling of image pixels. In the course of our work, we considered different types of semantic labels, including object classes (e.g., car, person), 3D depth values (in the range 0 to 80 meters), and affordance classes (e.g., walkable, sittable). Semantic pixel labeling is...

  • Pixel- and Frame-level Video Labeling using Spatial and Temporal Convolutional Networks

    Creator:
    Lei, Peng
    Abstract:
    This dissertation addresses the problem of video labeling at both the frame and pixel levels using deep learning. For pixel-level video labeling, we have studied two problems: i) Spatiotemporal video segmentation and ii) Boundary detection and boundary flow estimation. For the problem of spatiotemporal video segmentation, we have developed recurrent...
