End-to-End Learning of Video Super-Resolution with Motion Compensation
Learning approaches have shown great success in the task of super-resolving
an image given a low resolution input. Video super-resolution aims for
exploiting additionally the information from multiple images. Typically, the
images are related via optical flow and consecutive image warping. In this
paper, we provide an end-to-end video super-resolution network that, in
contrast to previous works, includes the estimation of optical flow in the
overall network architecture. We analyze the usage of optical flow for video
super-resolution and find that common off-the-shelf image warping does not
allow video super-resolution to benefit much from optical flow. We rather
propose an operation for motion compensation that performs warping from low to
high resolution directly. We show that with this network configuration, video
super-resolution can benefit from optical flow and we obtain state-of-the-art
results on the popular test sets. We also show that the processing of whole
images rather than independent patches is responsible for a large increase in
accuracy.Comment: Accepted to GCPR201
Polyglot: Distributed Word Representations for Multilingual NLP
Distributed word representations (word embeddings) have recently contributed
to competitive performance in language modeling and several NLP tasks. In this
work, we train word embeddings for more than 100 languages using their
corresponding Wikipedias. We quantitatively demonstrate the utility of our word
embeddings by using them as the sole features for training a part of speech
tagger for a subset of these languages. We find their performance to be
competitive with near state-of-art methods in English, Danish and Swedish.
Moreover, we investigate the semantic features captured by these embeddings
through the proximity of word groupings. We will release these embeddings
publicly to help researchers in the development and enhancement of multilingual
applications.Comment: 10 pages, 2 figures, Proceedings of Conference on Computational
