TLDR
A new database called “ImageNet” is introduced, a large-scale ontology of images built upon the backbone of the WordNet structure, much larger in scale and diversity and much more accurate than the current image datasets.Abstract:
The explosion of image data on the Internet has the potential to foster more sophisticated and robust models and algorithms to index, retrieve, organize and interact with images and multimedia data. But exactly how such data can be harnessed and organized remains a critical problem. We introduce here a new database called “ImageNet”, a large-scale ontology of images built upon the backbone of the WordNet structure. ImageNet aims to populate the majority of the 80,000 synsets of WordNet with an average of 500-1000 clean and full resolution images. This will result in tens of millions of annotated images organized by the semantic hierarchy of WordNet. This paper offers a detailed analysis of ImageNet in its current state: 12 subtrees with 5247 synsets and 3.2 million images in total. We show that ImageNet is much larger in scale and diversity and much more accurate than the current image datasets. Constructing such a large-scale database is a challenging task. We describe the data collection scheme with Amazon Mechanical Turk. Lastly, we illustrate the usefulness of ImageNet through three simple applications in object recognition, image classification and automatic object clustering. We hope that the scale, accuracy, diversity and hierarchical structure of ImageNet can offer unparalleled opportunities to researchers in the computer vision community and beyond.read more

3D-RCNN: Instance-Level 3D Object Reconstruction via Render-and-Compare
TL;DR: A differentiable Render-and-Compare loss is proposed that allows 3D shape and pose to be learned with 2D supervision and produces a compact 3D representation of the scene, which can be readily used for applications like autonomous driving.

Model Adaptation: Unsupervised Domain Adaptation Without Source Data
TL;DR: This paper proposes a new framework, which is referred to as collaborative class conditional generative adversarial net, to bypass the dependence on the source data and achieves superior performance on multiple adaptation tasks with only unlabeled target data, which verifies its effectiveness in this challenging setting.

BING: Binarized normed gradients for objectness estimation at 300fps
TL;DR: To improve localization quality of the proposals while maintaining efficiency, a novel fast segmentation method is proposed and demonstrated its effectiveness for improving BING’s localization performance, when used in multi-thresholding straddling expansion (MTSE) post-processing.

Distinctive Image Features from Scale-Invariant Keypoints
TL;DR: This paper presents a method for extracting distinctive invariant features from images that can be used to perform reliable matching between different views of an object or scene and can robustly identify objects among clutter and occlusion while achieving near real-time performance.

TL;DR: The lexical database: nouns in WordNet, Katherine J. Miller a semantic network of English verbs, and applications of WordNet: building semantic concordances are presented.
Labeled Faces in the Wild: A Database forStudying Face Recognition in Unconstrained Environments
TL;DR: The database contains labeled face photographs spanning the range of conditions typically encountered in everyday life, and exhibits “natural” variability in factors such as pose, lighting, race, accessories, occlusions, and background.
Principles of categorization
TL;DR: On those remote pages it is written that animals are divided into those that belong to the Emperor, and those that are trained, suckling pigs and stray dogs.
