An Iterative Co-Saliency Framework for RGBD Images
As a newly emerging and significant topic in computer vision community,
co-saliency detection aims at discovering the common salient objects in
multiple related images. The existing methods often generate the co-saliency
map through a direct forward pipeline which is based on the designed cues or
initialization, but lack the refinement-cycle scheme. Moreover, they mainly
focus on RGB image and ignore the depth information for RGBD images. In this
paper, we propose an iterative RGBD co-saliency framework, which utilizes the
existing single saliency maps as the initialization, and generates the final
RGBD cosaliency map by using a refinement-cycle model. Three schemes are
employed in the proposed RGBD co-saliency framework, which include the addition
scheme, deletion scheme, and iteration scheme. The addition scheme is used to
highlight the salient regions based on intra-image depth propagation and
saliency propagation, while the deletion scheme filters the saliency regions
and removes the non-common salient regions based on interimage constraint. The
iteration scheme is proposed to obtain more homogeneous and consistent
co-saliency map. Furthermore, a novel descriptor, named depth shape prior, is
proposed in the addition scheme to introduce the depth information to enhance
identification of co-salient objects. The proposed method can effectively
exploit any existing 2D saliency model to work well in RGBD co-saliency
scenarios. The experiments on two RGBD cosaliency datasets demonstrate the
effectiveness of our proposed framework.Comment: 13 pages, 13 figures, Accepted by IEEE Transactions on Cybernetics

Looking Deeper into Deep Learning Model: Attribution-based Explanations of TextCNN
Layer-wise Relevance Propagation (LRP) and saliency maps have been recently
used to explain the predictions of Deep Learning models, specifically in the
domain of text classification. Given different attribution-based explanations
to highlight relevant words for a predicted class label, experiments based on
word deleting perturbation is a common evaluation method. This word removal
approach, however, disregards any linguistic dependencies that may exist
between words or phrases in a sentence, which could semantically guide a
classifier to a particular prediction. In this paper, we present a
feature-based evaluation framework for comparing the two attribution methods on
customer reviews (public data sets) and Customer Due Diligence (CDD) extracted
reports (corporate data set). Instead of removing words based on the relevance
score, we investigate perturbations based on embedded features removal from
intermediate layers of Convolutional Neural Networks. Our experimental study is
carried out on embedded-word, embedded-document, and embedded-ngrams
explanations. Using the proposed framework, we provide a visualization tool to
assist analysts in reasoning toward the model's final prediction.Comment: NIPS 2018 Workshop on Challenges and Opportunities for AI in
