Clustering algorithms are attractive for the task of class identification in spatial databases. However, the application to large spatial databases rises the following requirements for clustering algorithms: minimal requirements of domain knowledge to determine the input parameters, discovery of clusters with arbitrary shape and good efficiency on large databases. The well-known clustering algorithms offer no solution to the combination of these requirements. In this paper, we present the new clustering algorithm DBSCAN relying on a density-based notion of clusters which is designed to discover clusters of arbitrary shape. DBSCAN requires only one input parameter and supports the user in determining an appropriate value for it. We performed an experimental evaluation of the effectiveness and efficiency of DBSCAN using synthetic data and real data of the SEQUOIA 2000 benchmark. The results of our experiments demonstrate that (1) DBSCAN is significantly more effective in discovering clusters of arbitrary shape than the well-known algorithm CLAR-ANS, and that (2) DBSCAN outperforms CLARANS by a factor of more than 100 in terms of efficiency.

Passive Millimeter Wave Images (PMMWIs) are being increasingly used to identify and localize objects concealed under clothing. Taking into account the quality of these images and the unknown position, shape, and size of the hidden objects, large data sets are required to build successful classification/detection systems. Kernel methods, in particular Gaussian Processes (GPs), are sound, flexible, and popular techniques to address supervised learning problems. Unfortunately, their computational cost is known to be prohibitive for large scale applications. In this work, we present a novel approach to PMMWI classification based on the use of Gaussian Processes for large data sets. The proposed methodology relies on linear approximations to kernel functions through random Fourier features. Model hyperparameters are learned within a variational Bayes inference scheme. Our proposal is well suited for real-time applications, since its computational cost at training and test times is much lower than the original GP formulation. The proposed approach is tested on a unique, large, and real PMMWI database containing a broad variety of sizes, types, and locations of hidden objects.

Passive Millimeter Wave Image Classification with Large Scale Gaussian Processes

In this paper we consider the problem of reconstructing a high resolution image from a set of undersampled and degraded frames, all of them obtained from high resolution images with unknown shifting displacements between them. We derive an iterative method to estimate the unknown shifts and the high resolution image given the low resolution observations. Finally, the proposed method is tested on real images.

Bayesian super-resolution of images from low resolution observations with unknown registration parameters.

While Convolutional Neural Networks (CNNs) trained for image and video super-resolution (SR) regularly achieve new state-of-the-art performance, they also suffer from significant drawbacks. One of their limitations is their lack of robustness to unseen image formation models during training. Other limitations include the generation of artifacts and hallucinated content when training Generative Adversarial Networks (GANs) for SR. While the Deep Learning literature focuses on presenting new training schemes and settings to resolve these various issues, we show that one can avoid training and correct for SR results with a fully self-supervised fine-tuning approach. More specifically, at test time, given an image and its known image formation model, we fine-tune the parameters of the trained network and iteratively update them using a data fidelity loss. We apply our fine-tuning algorithm on multiple image and video SR CNNs and show that it can successfully correct for a sub-optimal SR solution by entirely relying on internal learning at test time. We apply our method on the problem of fine-tuning for unseen image formation models and on removal of artifacts introduced by GANs.

In this paper we examine the use of logarithmic opinion pooling techniques to combine two observations models that are normally used in multi-channel image restoration techniques. The combined observation model is used together with simultaneous autoregression prior models for the image and blurs to define the joint distribution of image, blurs and observations. Assuming that all the unknown parameters are previously estimated we use variational techniques to approximate the posterior distribution of the real underlying image and the unknown blurs. We will examine the use of two approximations of the posterior distribution. Experimental results are used to validate the proposed approach.
