Revisit Multinomial Logistic Regression in Deep Learning: Data Dependent Model Initialization for Image Recognition

no code implementations17 Sep 2018 Bowen Cheng, Rong Xiao, Yandong Guo, Yuxiao Hu, Jian-Feng Wang, Lei Zhang

We study in this paper how to initialize the parameters of multinomial logistic regression (a fully connected layer followed with softmax and cross entropy loss), which is widely used in deep neural network (DNN) models for classification problems.

A Simple Non-i.i.d. Sampling Approach for Efficient Training and Better Generalization

no code implementations23 Nov 2018 Bowen Cheng, Yunchao Wei, Jiahui Yu, Shiyu Chang, JinJun Xiong, Wen-mei Hwu, Thomas S. Huang, Humphrey Shi

While training on samples drawn from independent and identical distribution has been a de facto paradigm for optimizing image classification networks, humans learn new concepts in an easy-to-hard manner and on the selected examples progressively.

SPGNet: Semantic Prediction Guidance for Scene Parsing

no code implementations ICCV 2019 Bowen Cheng, Liang-Chieh Chen, Yunchao Wei, Yukun Zhu, Zilong Huang, JinJun Xiong, Thomas Huang, Wen-mei Hwu, Honghui Shi

The multi-scale context module refers to the operations to aggregate feature responses from a large spatial extent, while the single-stage encoder-decoder structure encodes the high-level semantic information in the encoder path and recovers the boundary information in the decoder path.

Boundary IoU: Improving Object-Centric Image Segmentation Evaluation

2 code implementations CVPR 2021 Bowen Cheng, Ross Girshick, Piotr Dollár, Alexander C. Berg, Alexander Kirillov

We perform an extensive analysis across different error types and object sizes and show that Boundary IoU is significantly more sensitive than the standard Mask IoU measure to boundary errors for large objects and does not over-penalize errors on smaller objects.

Back-tracing Representative Points for Voting-based 3D Object Detection in Point Clouds

1 code implementation CVPR 2021 Bowen Cheng, Lu Sheng, Shaoshuai Shi, Ming Yang, Dong Xu

Inspired by the back-tracing strategy in the conventional Hough voting methods, in this work, we introduce a new 3D object detection method, named as Back-tracing Representative Points Network (BRNet), which generatively back-traces the representative points from the vote centers and also revisits complementary seed points around these generated points, so as to better capture the fine local structural features surrounding the potential objects from the raw point clouds.

Pseudo-IoU: Improving Label Assignment in Anchor-Free Object Detection

1 code implementation29 Apr 2021 Jiachen Li, Bowen Cheng, Rogerio Feris, JinJun Xiong, Thomas S. Huang, Wen-mei Hwu, Humphrey Shi

Current anchor-free object detectors are quite simple and effective yet lack accurate label assignment methods, which limits their potential in competing with classic anchor-based models that are supported by well-designed assignment methods based on the Intersection-over-Union~(IoU) metric.

Since 2D images provide rich semantics and scene graphs are in nature coped with languages, in this study, we propose Visual-Linguistic Semantics Assisted Training (VL-SAT) scheme that can significantly empower 3DSSG prediction models with discrimination about long-tailed and ambiguous semantic relations.
