Deep Multi-instance Networks with Sparse Label Assignment for Whole Mammogram Classification
Mammogram classification is directly related to computer-aided diagnosis of
breast cancer. Traditional methods rely on regions of interest (ROIs) which
require great efforts to annotate. Inspired by the success of using deep
convolutional features for natural image analysis and multi-instance learning
(MIL) for labeling a set of instances/patches, we propose end-to-end trained
deep multi-instance networks for mass classification based on whole mammogram
without the aforementioned ROIs. We explore three different schemes to
construct deep multi-instance networks for whole mammogram classification.
Experimental results on the INbreast dataset demonstrate the robustness of
proposed networks compared to previous work using segmentation and detection
annotations.Comment: MICCAI 2017 Camera Read
Semantic Instance Annotation of Street Scenes by 3D to 2D Label Transfer
Semantic annotations are vital for training models for object recognition,
semantic segmentation or scene understanding. Unfortunately, pixelwise
annotation of images at very large scale is labor-intensive and only little
labeled data is available, particularly at instance level and for street
scenes. In this paper, we propose to tackle this problem by lifting the
semantic instance labeling task from 2D into 3D. Given reconstructions from
stereo or laser data, we annotate static 3D scene elements with rough bounding
primitives and develop a model which transfers this information into the image
domain. We leverage our method to obtain 2D labels for a novel suburban video
dataset which we have collected, resulting in 400k semantic and instance image
annotations. A comparison of our method to state-of-the-art label transfer
baselines reveals that 3D information enables more efficient annotation while
at the same time resulting in improved accuracy and time-coherent labels.Comment: 10 pages in Conference on Computer Vision and Pattern Recognition

Playing for Data: Ground Truth from Computer Games
Recent progress in computer vision has been driven by high-capacity models
trained on large datasets. Unfortunately, creating large datasets with
pixel-level labels has been extremely costly due to the amount of human effort
required. In this paper, we present an approach to rapidly creating
pixel-accurate semantic label maps for images extracted from modern computer
games. Although the source code and the internal operation of commercial games
are inaccessible, we show that associations between image patches can be
reconstructed from the communication between the game and the graphics
hardware. This enables rapid propagation of semantic labels within and across
images synthesized by the game, with no access to the source code or the
content. We validate the presented approach by producing dense pixel-level
semantic annotations for 25 thousand images synthesized by a photorealistic
open-world computer game. Experiments on semantic segmentation datasets show
that using the acquired data to supplement real-world images significantly
increases accuracy and that the acquired data enables reducing the amount of
hand-labeled real-world data: models trained with game data and just 1/3 of the
CamVid training set outperform models trained on the complete CamVid training
set.Comment: Accepted to the 14th European Conference on Computer Vision (ECCV
