TLDR
A novel method for semantic image inpainting, which generates the missing content by conditioning on the available data, and successfully predicts information in large missing regions and achieves pixel-level photorealism, significantly outperforming the state-of-the-art methods.Abstract:
Semantic image inpainting is a challenging task where large missing regions have to be filled based on the available visual data. Existing methods which extract information from only a single image generally produce unsatisfactory results due to the lack of high level context. In this paper, we propose a novel method for semantic image inpainting, which generates the missing content by conditioning on the available data. Given a trained generative model, we search for the closest encoding of the corrupted image in the latent image manifold using our context and prior losses. This encoding is then passed through the generative model to infer the missing content. In our method, inference is possible irrespective of how the missing content is structured, while the state-of-the-art learning based method requires specific information about the holes in the training phase. Experiments on three datasets show that our method successfully predicts information in large missing regions and achieves pixel-level photorealism, significantly outperforming the state-of-the-art methods.read more

360 Panorama Synthesis from a Sparse Set of Images with Unknown Field of View
TL;DR: In this article, a learning-based approach that reconstructs the scene in 360°× 180° from a sparse set of conventional images (typically 4 images) is proposed, where the estimated FOV of input images relative to the panorama is then used as the prior for synthesizing a high-resolution 360°panoramic output.

A Deep Learning Approach for Face Hallucination Guided by Facial Boundary Responses
TL;DR: An open source Boundary-aware Dual-branch Network is proposed for face hallucination, which simultaneously extracts face features and estimates facial boundary responses from LR inputs, ultimately fusing them to reconstruct HR results.

Unsupervised moving object segmentation using background subtraction and optimal adversarial noise sample search
TL;DR: In this article , the authors proposed a MOS algorithm exploiting multiple adversarial regularizations including conventional as well as least squares losses, which force the generator to synthesize dynamic background similar to the test sequences which upon subtraction results in moving objects segmentation.
An Image Inpainting Approach to Short-Term Load Forecasting
TL;DR: In this article , the authors proposed a recurrent neural network to model the temporal trends in the series by convolutional operations on the spatial neighborhood in the images, which can estimate the future load from related series if there is a lack of history.

Image quality assessment: from error visibility to structural similarity
TL;DR: In this article, a structural similarity index is proposed for image quality assessment based on the degradation of structural information, which can be applied to both subjective ratings and objective methods on a database of images compressed with JPEG and JPEG2000.

TL;DR: A new framework for estimating generative models via an adversarial process, in which two models are simultaneously train: a generative model G that captures the data distribution and a discriminative model D that estimates the probability that a sample came from the training data rather than G.

Visualizing Data using t-SNE
TL;DR: A new technique called t-SNE that visualizes high-dimensional data by giving each datapoint a location in a two or three-dimensional map, a variation of Stochastic Neighbor Embedding that is much easier to optimize, and produces significantly better visualizations by reducing the tendency to crowd points together in the center of the map.
