Mobile Video Object Detection with Temporally-Aware Feature Maps
This paper introduces an online model for object detection in videos designed
to run in real-time on low-powered mobile and embedded devices. Our approach
combines fast single-image object detection with convolutional long short term
memory (LSTM) layers to create an interweaved recurrent-convolutional
architecture. Additionally, we propose an efficient Bottleneck-LSTM layer that
significantly reduces computational cost compared to regular LSTMs. Our network
achieves temporal awareness by using Bottleneck-LSTMs to refine and propagate
feature maps across frames. This approach is substantially faster than existing
detection methods in video, outperforming the fastest single-frame models in
model size and computational cost while attaining accuracy comparable to much
more expensive single-frame models on the Imagenet VID 2015 dataset. Our model
reaches a real-time inference speed of up to 15 FPS on a mobile CPU.Comment: In CVPR 201
Multi-view Face Detection Using Deep Convolutional Neural Networks
In this paper we consider the problem of multi-view face detection. While
there has been significant research on this problem, current state-of-the-art
approaches for this task require annotation of facial landmarks, e.g. TSM [25],
or annotation of face poses [28, 22]. They also require training dozens of
models to fully capture faces in all orientations, e.g. 22 models in HeadHunter
method [22]. In this paper we propose Deep Dense Face Detector (DDFD), a method
that does not require pose/landmark annotation and is able to detect faces in a
wide range of orientations using a single model based on deep convolutional
neural networks. The proposed method has minimal complexity; unlike other
recent deep learning object detection methods [9], it does not require
additional components such as segmentation, bounding-box regression, or SVM
classifiers. Furthermore, we analyzed scores of the proposed face detector for
faces in different orientations and found that 1) the proposed method is able
to detect faces from different angles and can handle occlusion to some extent,
2) there seems to be a correlation between dis- tribution of positive examples
in the training set and scores of the proposed face detector. The latter
suggests that the proposed methods performance can be further improved by using
better sampling strategies and more sophisticated data augmentation techniques.
Evaluations on popular face detection benchmark datasets show that our
single-model face detector algorithm has similar or better performance compared
to the previous methods, which are more complex and require annotations of
either different poses or facial landmarks.Comment: in International Conference on Multimedia Retrieval 2015 (ICMR
