Data-Driven Shape Analysis and Processing
Data-driven methods play an increasingly important role in discovering
geometric, structural, and semantic relationships between 3D shapes in
collections, and applying this analysis to support intelligent modeling,
editing, and visualization of geometric data. In contrast to traditional
approaches, a key feature of data-driven approaches is that they aggregate
information from a collection of shapes to improve the analysis and processing
of individual shapes. In addition, they are able to learn models that reason
about properties and relationships of shapes without relying on hard-coded
rules or explicitly programmed instructions. We provide an overview of the main
concepts and components of these techniques, and discuss their application to
shape classification, segmentation, matching, reconstruction, modeling and
exploration, as well as scene analysis and synthesis, through reviewing the
literature and relating the existing works with both qualitative and numerical
comparisons. We conclude our report with ideas that can inspire future research
in data-driven shape analysis and processing.Comment: 10 pages, 19 figure
Detection-by-Localization: Maintenance-Free Change Object Detector
Recent researches demonstrate that self-localization performance is a very
useful measure of likelihood-of-change (LoC) for change detection. In this
paper, this "detection-by-localization" scheme is studied in a novel
generalized task of object-level change detection. In our framework, a given
query image is segmented into object-level subimages (termed "scene parts"),
which are then converted to subimage-level pixel-wise LoC maps via the
detection-by-localization scheme. Our approach models a self-localization
system as a ranking function, outputting a ranked list of reference images,
without requiring relevance score. Thanks to this new setting, we can
generalize our approach to a broad class of self-localization systems. Our
ranking based self-localization model allows to fuse self-localization results
from different modalities via an unsupervised rank fusion derived from a field
of multi-modal information retrieval (MMR).Comment: 7 pages, 3 figures, Technical repor
Unsupervised Learning of Depth and Ego-Motion from Video
We present an unsupervised learning framework for the task of monocular depth
and camera motion estimation from unstructured video sequences. We achieve this
by simultaneously training depth and camera pose estimation networks using the
task of view synthesis as the supervisory signal. The networks are thus coupled
via the view synthesis objective during training, but can be applied
independently at test time. Empirical evaluation on the KITTI dataset
demonstrates the effectiveness of our approach: 1) monocular depth performing
comparably with supervised methods that use either ground-truth pose or depth
for training, and 2) pose estimation performing favorably with established SLAM
systems under comparable input settings.Comment: Accepted to CVPR 2017. Project webpage:
