FAST: Font-Agnostic Scene Text Editing

no code implementations5 Aug 2023 Alloy Das, Prasun Roy, Saumik Bhattacharya, Subhankar Ghosh, Umapada Pal, Michael Blumenstein

However, most of the existing STE methods show inferior editing performance because of (1) complex image backgrounds, (2) various font styles, and (3) varying word lengths within the text.

Global Context-Aware Person Image Generation

no code implementations28 Feb 2023 Prasun Roy, Saumik Bhattacharya, Subhankar Ghosh, Umapada Pal, Michael Blumenstein

The proposed strategy enables us to synthesize semantically coherent realistic persons that can blend into an existing scene without altering the global context.

TIPS: Text-Induced Pose Synthesis

no code implementations24 Jul 2022 Prasun Roy, Subhankar Ghosh, Saumik Bhattacharya, Umapada Pal, Michael Blumenstein

In computer vision, human pose synthesis and transfer deal with probabilistic image generation of a person in a previously unseen pose from an already available observation of that person.

A Robust Matching Pursuit Algorithm Using Information Theoretic Learning

no code implementations10 May 2020 Miaohua Zhang, Yongsheng Gao, Changming Sun, Michael Blumenstein

Current orthogonal matching pursuit (OMP) algorithms calculate the correlation between two vectors using the inner product operation and minimize the mean square error, which are both suboptimal when there are non-Gaussian noises or outliers in the observation data.

Robust Tensor Decomposition for Image Representation Based on Generalized Correntropy

no code implementations10 May 2020 Miaohua Zhang, Yongsheng Gao, Changming Sun, Michael Blumenstein

Traditional tensor decomposition methods, e. g., two dimensional principal component analysis and two dimensional singular value decomposition, that minimize mean square errors, are sensitive to outliers.

Omni-Scale CNNs: a simple and effective kernel size configuration for time series classification

3 code implementations ICLR 2022 Wensi Tang, Guodong Long, Lu Liu, Tianyi Zhou, Michael Blumenstein, Jing Jiang

Particularly, it is a set of kernel sizes that can efficiently cover the best RF size across different datasets via consisting of multiple prime numbers according to the length of the time series.

Intra-Variable Handwriting Inspection Reinforced with Idiosyncrasy Analysis

no code implementations19 Dec 2019 Chandranath Adak, Bidyut. B. Chaudhuri, Chin-Teng Lin, Michael Blumenstein

In this paper, we work on intra-variable handwriting, where the writing samples of an individual can vary significantly.

Temporal Self-Attention Network for Medical Concept Embedding

1 code implementation15 Sep 2019 Xueping Peng, Guodong Long, Tao Shen, Sen Wang, Jing Jiang, Michael Blumenstein

In this paper, we propose a medical concept embedding method based on applying a self-attention mechanism to represent each medical concept.

FACLSTM: ConvLSTM with Focused Attention for Scene Text Recognition

no code implementations20 Apr 2019 Qingqing Wang, Wenjing Jia, Xiangjian He, Yue Lu, Michael Blumenstein, Ye Huang

Scene text recognition has recently been widely treated as a sequence-to-sequence prediction problem, where traditional fully-connected-LSTM (FC-LSTM) has played a critical role.

Can Walking and Measuring Along Chord Bunches Better Describe Leaf Shapes?

no code implementations CVPR 2017 Bin Wang, Yongsheng Gao, Changming Sun, Michael Blumenstein, John La Salle

A novel chord bunch walks (CBW) descriptor is developed through the chord walking that effectively integrates the shape image function over the walked chord to reflect the contour features and the inner properties of the shape.
