A Deep Primal-Dual Network for Guided Depth Super-Resolution
In this paper we present a novel method to increase the spatial resolution of
depth images. We combine a deep fully convolutional network with a non-local
variational method in a deep primal-dual network. The joint network computes a
noise-free, high-resolution estimate from a noisy, low-resolution input depth
map. Additionally, a high-resolution intensity image is used to guide the
reconstruction in the network. By unrolling the optimization steps of a
first-order primal-dual algorithm and formulating it as a network, we can train
our joint method end-to-end. This not only enables us to learn the weights of
the fully convolutional network, but also to optimize all parameters of the
variational method and its optimization procedure. The training of such a deep
network requires a large dataset for supervision. Therefore, we generate
high-quality depth maps and corresponding color images with a physically based
renderer. In an exhaustive evaluation we show that our method outperforms the
state-of-the-art on multiple benchmarks.Comment: BMVC 201
Video Propagation Networks
We propose a technique that propagates information forward through video
data. The method is conceptually simple and can be applied to tasks that
require the propagation of structured information, such as semantic labels,
based on video content. We propose a 'Video Propagation Network' that processes
video frames in an adaptive manner. The model is applied online: it propagates
information forward without the need to access future frames. In particular we
combine two components, a temporal bilateral network for dense and video
adaptive filtering, followed by a spatial network to refine features and
increased flexibility. We present experiments on video object segmentation and
semantic video segmentation and show increased performance comparing to the
best previous task-specific methods, while having favorable runtime.
Additionally we demonstrate our approach on an example regression task of color
propagation in a grayscale video.Comment: Appearing in Computer Vision and Pattern Recognition, 2017 (CVPR'17
