“Unpaired Image-to-Image Translation using Cycle-Consistent Adversarial Networks”の学習報告

Human observers can learn to recognize new categories of images from a handful of examples, yet doing so with artificial ones remains an open challenge. We hypothesize that data-efficient recognition is enabled by representations which make the variability in natural signals more predictable. We therefore revisit and improve Contrastive Predictive Coding, an unsupervised objective for learning such representations. This new implementation produces features which support state-of-the-art linear classification accuracy on the ImageNet dataset. When used as input for non-linear classification with deep neural networks, this representation allows us to use 2-5x less labels than classifiers trained directly on image pixels. Finally, this unsupervised representation substantially improves transfer learning to object detection on the PASCAL VOC dataset, surpassing fully supervised pre-trained ImageNet classifiers.

Data-Efficient Image Recognition with Contrastive Predictive Coding

Recent work has shown that a variety of semantics emerge in the latent space of Generative Adversarial Networks (GANs) when being trained to synthesize images. However, it is difficult to use these learned semantics for real image editing. A common practice of feeding a real image to a trained GAN generator is to invert it back to a latent code. However, existing inversion methods typically focus on reconstructing the target image by pixel values yet fail to land the inverted code in the semantic domain of the original latent space. As a result, the reconstructed image cannot well support semantic editing through varying the inverted code. To solve this problem, we propose an in-domain GAN inversion approach, which not only faithfully reconstructs the input image but also ensures the inverted code to be semantically meaningful for editing. We first learn a novel domain-guided encoder to project a given image to the native latent space of GANs. We then propose domain-regularized optimization by involving the encoder as a regularizer to fine-tune the code produced by the encoder and better recover the target image. Extensive experiments suggest that our inversion method achieves satisfying real image reconstruction and more importantly facilitates various image editing tasks, significantly outperforming start-of-the-arts.

In-Domain GAN Inversion for Real Image Editing

Generative adversarial networks (GANs) learn a deep generative model that is able to synthesize novel, high-dimensional data samples. New data samples are synthesized by passing latent samples, drawn from a chosen prior distribution, through the generative model. Once trained, the latent space exhibits interesting properties that may be useful for downstream tasks such as classification or retrieval. Unfortunately, GANs do not offer an “inverse model,” a mapping from data space back to latent space, making it difficult to infer a latent representation for a given data sample. In this paper, we introduce a technique, inversion , to project data samples, specifically images, to the latent space using a pretrained GAN. Using our proposed inversion technique, we are able to identify which attributes of a data set a trained GAN is able to model and quantify GAN performance, based on a reconstruction loss. We demonstrate how our proposed inversion technique may be used to quantitatively compare the performance of various GAN models trained on three image data sets. We provide codes for all of our experiments in the website ( https://github.com/ToniCreswell/InvertingGAN ).

The inverse mapping of GANs’ (Generative Adversarial Nets) generator has a great potential value. Hence, some works have been developed to construct the inverse function of generator by directly learning or adversarial learning. While the results are encouraging, the problem is highly challenging and the existing ways of training inverse models of GANs have many disadvantages, such as hard to train or poor performance. Due to these reasons, we propose a new approach based on using inverse generator (IG) model as encoder and pre-trained generator (G) as decoder of an AutoEncoder network to train the IG model. In the proposed model, the difference between the input and output, which are both the generated image of pre-trained GAN’s generator, of AutoEncoder is directly minimized. The optimizing method can overcome the difficulty in training and inverse model of an non one-to-one function. We also applied the inverse model of GANs’ generators to image searching and translation. The experimental results prove that the proposed approach works better than the traditional approaches in image searching.

Learning Inverse Mapping by Autoencoder based Generative Adversarial Nets

In this article, we propose a structure-aligned generative adversarial network framework to improve zero-shot learning (ZSL) by mitigating the semantic gap, domain shift, and hubness problem. The proposed framework contains two parts, i.e., a generative adversarial network with a softmax classifier part, and a structure-aligned part. In the first part, the generative adversarial network aims at generating pseudovisual features through the guiding generator and discriminator play the minimax two-player game together. At the same time, the softmax classifier is committed to increasing the interclass distance and reducing intraclass distance. Then, the harmful effect of domain shift and hubness problems can be mitigated. In another part, we introduce a structure-aligned module where the structural consistency between visual space and semantic space is learned. By aligning the structure between visual space and semantic space, the semantic gap between them can be bridged. The performance of classification is improved when the structure-aligned visual-semantic embedding space is transferred to the unseen classes. Our framework reformulates the ZSL as a standard fully supervised classification task using the pseudovisual features of unseen classes. Extensive experiments conducted on five benchmark data sets demonstrate that the proposed framework significantly outperforms state-of-the-art methods in both conventional and generalized settings.

In this paper, we collect an ocular B-ultrasound image dataset and propose a Collaborative Monitoring Deep Learning (CMDL) method to detect cataract. In the ocular B-ultrasound images, there are often strong echoes near the posterior capsule and lens, and the fine-grained ocular B-ultrasound images are often accompanied by the characteristics of weak penetrating power, low contrast, narrow imaging range, and high noise. Thus, in the proposed CMDL method, we introduce an object detection network based on YOLO-v3 to detect the focus areas we need, so as to reduce the interference of noise and improve the cataract detection accuracy of our method. Considering that the B-ultrasound image dataset we collected is small-scale, we also design three feature extraction modules to avoid over-fitting of the deep neural networks. Among them, there are a depth features extraction module based on DenseNet-161, a shape features extractor based on Fourier descriptor, and a texture features extraction module based on gray-level co-occurrence matrix. Moreover, we also introduce the collaborative learning module to improve the generalization of the proposed model. Specifically, we first fuse the depth, shape, and texture features of the eyeball and lens, respectively. Then, the fused features of the eyeball and lens are concatenated as the input of collaborative network. Finally, the introduced classification loss with the aid of collaborative loss, which distinguishes whether the eyeball and lens belong to the same category, improves the classification accuracy in cataract detection. Experimental results on our collected dataset demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed CMDL method.
