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

Learned Map Prediction for Enhanced Mobile Robot Exploration
TL;DR: An autonomous ground robot capable of exploring unknown indoor environments for reconstructing their 2D maps is demonstrated and an advantage over end-to-end learned exploration methods is retained in that the robot’s behavior is easily explicable in terms of the predicted map.

WarpGAN: Automatic Caricature Generation
TL;DR: WarpGAN as mentioned in this paper learns to automatically predict a set of control points that can warp the photo into a caricature, while preserving identity and allowing customization of the generated caricatures by controlling the exaggeration extent and the visual styles.

TL;DR: This work introduces Adam, an algorithm for first-order gradient-based optimization of stochastic objective functions, based on adaptive estimates of lower-order moments, and provides a regret bound on the convergence rate that is comparable to the best known results under the online convex optimization framework.

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.
