Rekurrenttien neuroverkkojen käyttäminen kohteiden tunnistamiseen videoissa
This thesis explores recurrent neural network based methods for object detection in video sequences. Several models for object recognition are compared by using the KITTI object tracking dataset containing photos taken in an urban traffic environment. Metrics such as robustness to noise and object velocity prediction error are used to analyze the results. Neural networks and their training methodology is described in depth and recent models from the literature are reviewed.
Several novel convolutional neural network architectures are introduced for the problem. The VGG-19 deep neural network is enhanced with convolutive recurrent layers to make it suitable for video analysis. Additionally a temporal coherency loss term is introduced to guide the learning process. Velocity estimation has not been studied in the literature and the velocity estimation performance was compared against a baseline frame-by-frame object detector neural network.
The results from the experiments show that the recurrent architectures operating on video sequences consistently outperform an object detector that only perceives one frame of video at once. The recurrent models are more resilient to noise and produce more confident object detections as measured by the standard deviation of the predicted bounding boxes. The recurrent models are able to predict object velocity more accurately from video than the baseline frame-by-frame model
Learning Robust Object Recognition Using Composed Scenes from Generative Models
Recurrent feedback connections in the mammalian visual system have been
hypothesized to play a role in synthesizing input in the theoretical framework
of analysis by synthesis. The comparison of internally synthesized
representation with that of the input provides a validation mechanism during
perceptual inference and learning. Inspired by these ideas, we proposed that
the synthesis machinery can compose new, unobserved images by imagination to
train the network itself so as to increase the robustness of the system in
novel scenarios. As a proof of concept, we investigated whether images composed
by imagination could help an object recognition system to deal with occlusion,
which is challenging for the current state-of-the-art deep convolutional neural
networks. We fine-tuned a network on images containing objects in various
occlusion scenarios, that are imagined or self-generated through a deep
generator network. Trained on imagined occluded scenarios under the object
persistence constraint, our network discovered more subtle and localized image
features that were neglected by the original network for object classification,
obtaining better separability of different object classes in the feature space.
This leads to significant improvement of object recognition under occlusion for
our network relative to the original network trained only on un-occluded
images. In addition to providing practical benefits in object recognition under
occlusion, this work demonstrates the use of self-generated composition of
visual scenes through the synthesis loop, combined with the object persistence
constraint, can provide opportunities for neural networks to discover new
relevant patterns in the data, and become more flexible in dealing with novel
situations.Comment: Accepted by 14th Conference on Computer and Robot Visio
Conditional Random Fields as Recurrent Neural Networks
Pixel-level labelling tasks, such as semantic segmentation, play a central
role in image understanding. Recent approaches have attempted to harness the
capabilities of deep learning techniques for image recognition to tackle
pixel-level labelling tasks. One central issue in this methodology is the
limited capacity of deep learning techniques to delineate visual objects. To
solve this problem, we introduce a new form of convolutional neural network
that combines the strengths of Convolutional Neural Networks (CNNs) and
Conditional Random Fields (CRFs)-based probabilistic graphical modelling. To
this end, we formulate mean-field approximate inference for the Conditional
Random Fields with Gaussian pairwise potentials as Recurrent Neural Networks.
This network, called CRF-RNN, is then plugged in as a part of a CNN to obtain a
deep network that has desirable properties of both CNNs and CRFs. Importantly,
our system fully integrates CRF modelling with CNNs, making it possible to
train the whole deep network end-to-end with the usual back-propagation
algorithm, avoiding offline post-processing methods for object delineation. We
apply the proposed method to the problem of semantic image segmentation,
obtaining top results on the challenging Pascal VOC 2012 segmentation
benchmark.Comment: This paper is published in IEEE ICCV 201
