Learning to generate line drawings that convey geometry and semantics

Synthesizing Images of Humans in Unseen Poses

1 code implementation CVPR 2018 Guha Balakrishnan, Amy Zhao, Adrian V. Dalca, Fredo Durand, John Guttag

Given an image of a person and a desired pose, we produce a depiction of that person in that pose, retaining the appearance of both the person and background.

Synthetically Trained Icon Proposals for Parsing and Summarizing Infographics

1 code implementation27 Jul 2018 Spandan Madan, Zoya Bylinskii, Matthew Tancik, Adrià Recasens, Kimberli Zhong, Sami Alsheikh, Hanspeter Pfister, Aude Oliva, Fredo Durand

While automatic text extraction works well on infographics, computer vision approaches trained on natural images fail to identify the stand-alone visual elements in infographics, or `icons'.

A Video-Based Method for Objectively Rating Ataxia

no code implementations13 Dec 2016 Ronnachai Jaroensri, Amy Zhao, Guha Balakrishnan, Derek Lo, Jeremy Schmahmann, John Guttag, Fredo Durand

The performance of our system is comparable to that of a group of ataxia specialists in terms of mean error and correlation, and our system's predictions were consistently within the range of inter-rater variability.

BubbleView: an interface for crowdsourcing image importance maps and tracking visual attention

no code implementations16 Feb 2017 Nam Wook Kim, Zoya Bylinskii, Michelle A. Borkin, Krzysztof Z. Gajos, Aude Oliva, Fredo Durand, Hanspeter Pfister

In this paper, we present BubbleView, an alternative methodology for eye tracking using discrete mouse clicks to measure which information people consciously choose to examine.

Burst Image Deblurring Using Permutation Invariant Convolutional Neural Networks

no code implementations ECCV 2018 Miika Aittala, Fredo Durand

We propose a neural approach for fusing an arbitrary-length burst of photographs suffering from severe camera shake and noise into a sharp and noise-free image.

Detecting Pulse from Head Motions in Video

no code implementations CVPR 2013 Guha Balakrishnan, Fredo Durand, John Guttag

We extract heart rate and beat lengths from videos by measuring subtle head motion caused by the Newtonian reaction to the influx of blood at each beat.

no code implementations1 Jan 2021 Spandan Madan, Timothy Henry, Jamell Arthur Dozier, Helen Ho, Nishchal Bhandari, Tomotake Sasaki, Fredo Durand, Hanspeter Pfister, Xavier Boix

We find that learning category and viewpoint in separate networks compared to a shared one leads to an increase in selectivity and invariance, as separate networks are not forced to preserve information about both category and viewpoint.
