报告题目:Temporal Modeling and Data Synthesis for Visual Understanding
地点:计算所421会议室
报告摘要:
In this talk, I will present recent pieces of work on leveraging temporal information and synthetic data to facilitate video and image understanding. In the first part, I will introduce a progressive learning framework, Spatio-TEmporal Progressive (STEP) detector, for action detection in videos. STEP is able to more effectively make use of longer temporal information, and performs detection simply from a handful of initial proposals, while other methods rely on thousands of densely sampled anchors or an extra person detector. In the second part, I will talk about a joint discriminative and generative learning framework for person re-identification by end-to-end coupling re-id learning and image synthesis in a unified network called DG-Net. There exists an online interactive loop between the discriminative and generative modules to let the two tasks mutually benefit. An extension of DGNet will be further presented to generalize re-id models to new domains under the unsupervised cross-domain setting. By jointly disentangling id-related/unrelated factors and selectively performs adaptation on the id-related feature space, our approach consistently brings substantial performance gains.
