This paper presents a stochastic differential equation (SDE) approach for general-purpose image restoration. The key construction consists in a mean-reverting SDE that transforms a high-quality image into a degraded counterpart as a mean state with fixed Gaussian noise. Then, by simulating the corresponding reverse-time SDE, we are able to restore the origin of the low-quality image without relying on any task-specific prior knowledge. Crucially, the proposed mean-reverting SDE has a closed-form solution, allowing us to compute the ground truth time-dependent score and learn it with a neural network. Moreover, we propose a maximum likelihood objective to learn an optimal reverse trajectory which stabilizes the training and improves the restoration results. In the experiments, we show that our proposed method achieves highly competitive performance in quantitative comparisons on image deraining, deblurring, and denoising, setting a new state-of-the-art on two deraining datasets. Finally, the general applicability of our approach is further demonstrated via qualitative results on image super-resolution, inpainting, and dehazing.

Quadrature formulas (QFs) based on radial basis functions (RBFs) have become an essential tool for multivariate numerical integration of scattered data. Although numerous works have been published on RBF-QFs, their stability theory can still be considered as underdeveloped. Here, we strive to pave the way towards a more mature stability theory for global and function-independent RBF-QFs. In particular, we prove stability of these for compactly supported RBFs under certain conditions on the shape parameter and the data points. As an alternative to changing the shape parameter, we demonstrate how the least-squares approach can be used to construct stable RBF-QFs by allowing the number of data points used for numerical integration to be larger than the number of centers used to generate the RBF approximation space. Moreover, it is shown that asymptotic stability of many global RBF-QFs is independent of polynomial terms, which are often included in RBF approximations. While our findings provide some novel conditions for stability of global RBF-QFs, the present work also demonstrates that there are still many gaps to fill in future investigations.

Image reconstruction based on indirect, noisy, or incomplete data remains an important yet challenging task. While methods such as compressive sensing have demonstrated high-resolution image recovery in various settings, there remain issues of robustness due to parameter tuning. Moreover, since the recovery is limited to a point estimate, it is impossible to quantify the uncertainty, which is often desirable. Due to these inherent limitations, a sparse Bayesian learning approach is sometimes adopted to recover a posterior distribution of the unknown. Sparse Bayesian learning assumes that some linear transformation of the unknown is sparse. However, most of the methods developed are tailored to specific problems, with particular forward models and priors. Here, we present a generalized approach to sparse Bayesian learning. It has the advantage that it can be used for various types of data acquisitions and prior information. Some preliminary results on image reconstruction/recovery indicate its potential use for denoising, deblurring, and magnetic resonance imaging.

We propose a continuous optimization framework for discovering a latent directed acyclic graph (DAG) from observational data. Our approach optimizes over the polytope of permutation vectors, the so-called Permutahedron, to learn a topological ordering. Edges can be optimized jointly, or learned conditional on the ordering via a non-differentiable subroutine. Compared to existing continuous optimization approaches our formulation has a number of advantages including: 1. validity: optimizes over exact DAGs as opposed to other relaxations optimizing approximate DAGs; 2. modularity: accommodates any edge-optimization procedure, edge structural parameterization, and optimization loss; 3. end-to-end: either alternately iterates between node-ordering and edge-optimization, or optimizes them jointly. We demonstrate, on real-world data problems in protein-signaling and transcriptional network discovery, that our approach lies on the Pareto frontier of two key metrics, the SID and SHD.

We empirically study the effect of noise scheduling strategies for denoising diffusion generative models. There are three findings: (1) the noise scheduling is crucial for the performance, and the optimal one depends on the task (e.g., image sizes), (2) when increasing the image size, the optimal noise scheduling shifts towards a noisier one (due to increased redundancy in pixels), and (3) simply scaling the input data by a factor of $b$ while keeping the noise schedule function fixed (equivalent to shifting the logSNR by $\log b$) is a good strategy across image sizes. This simple recipe, when combined with recently proposed Recurrent Interface Network (RIN), yields state-of-the-art pixel-based diffusion models for high-resolution images on ImageNet, enabling single-stage, end-to-end generation of diverse and high-fidelity images at 1024$\times$1024 resolution (without upsampling/cascades).

Hyperspectral image denoising is unique for the highly similar and correlated spectral information that should be properly considered. However, existing methods show limitations in exploring the spectral correlations across different bands and feature interactions within each band. Besides, the low- and high-level features usually exhibit different importance for different spatial-spectral regions, which is not fully explored for current algorithms as well. In this paper, we present a Mixed Attention Network (MAN) that simultaneously considers the inter- and intra-spectral correlations as well as the interactions between low- and high-level spatial-spectral meaningful features. Specifically, we introduce a multi-head recurrent spectral attention that efficiently integrates the inter-spectral features across all the spectral bands. These features are further enhanced with a progressive spectral channel attention by exploring the intra-spectral relationships. Moreover, we propose an attentive skip-connection that adaptively controls the proportion of the low- and high-level spatial-spectral features from the encoder and decoder to better enhance the aggregated features. Extensive experiments show that our MAN outperforms existing state-of-the-art methods on simulated and real noise settings while maintaining a low cost of parameters and running time.

High-dimensional feature selection is a central problem in a variety of application domains such as machine learning, image analysis, and genomics. In this paper, we propose graph-based tests as a useful basis for feature selection. We describe an algorithm for selecting informative features in high-dimensional data, where each observation comes from one of $K$ different distributions. Our algorithm can be applied in a completely nonparametric setup without any distributional assumptions on the data, and it aims at outputting those features in the data, that contribute the most to the overall distributional variation. At the heart of our method is the recursive application of distribution-free graph-based tests on subsets of the feature set, located at different depths of a hierarchical clustering tree constructed from the data. Our algorithm recovers all truly contributing features with high probability, while ensuring optimal control on false-discovery. Finally, we show the superior performance of our method over other existing ones through synthetic data, and also demonstrate the utility of the method on two real-life datasets from the domains of climate change and single cell transcriptomics.

Connecting Vision and Language plays an essential role in Generative Intelligence. For this reason, in the last few years, a large research effort has been devoted to image captioning, i.e. the task of describing images with syntactically and semantically meaningful sentences. Starting from 2015 the task has generally been addressed with pipelines composed of a visual encoding step and a language model for text generation. During these years, both components have evolved considerably through the exploitation of object regions, attributes, and relationships and the introduction of multi-modal connections, fully-attentive approaches, and BERT-like early-fusion strategies. However, regardless of the impressive results obtained, research in image captioning has not reached a conclusive answer yet. This work aims at providing a comprehensive overview and categorization of image captioning approaches, from visual encoding and text generation to training strategies, used datasets, and evaluation metrics. In this respect, we quantitatively compare many relevant state-of-the-art approaches to identify the most impactful technical innovations in image captioning architectures and training strategies. Moreover, many variants of the problem and its open challenges are analyzed and discussed. The final goal of this work is to serve as a tool for understanding the existing state-of-the-art and highlighting the future directions for an area of research where Computer Vision and Natural Language Processing can find an optimal synergy.

Conventionally, spatiotemporal modeling network and its complexity are the two most concentrated research topics in video action recognition. Existing state-of-the-art methods have achieved excellent accuracy regardless of the complexity meanwhile efficient spatiotemporal modeling solutions are slightly inferior in performance. In this paper, we attempt to acquire both efficiency and effectiveness simultaneously. First of all, besides traditionally treating H x W x T video frames as space-time signal (viewing from the Height-Width spatial plane), we propose to also model video from the other two Height-Time and Width-Time planes, to capture the dynamics of video thoroughly. Secondly, our model is designed based on 2D CNN backbones and model complexity is well kept in mind by design. Specifically, we introduce a novel multi-view fusion (MVF) module to exploit video dynamics using separable convolution for efficiency. It is a plug-and-play module and can be inserted into off-the-shelf 2D CNNs to form a simple yet effective model called MVFNet. Moreover, MVFNet can be thought of as a generalized video modeling framework and it can specialize to be existing methods such as C2D, SlowOnly, and TSM under different settings. Extensive experiments are conducted on popular benchmarks (i.e., Something-Something V1 & V2, Kinetics, UCF-101, and HMDB-51) to show its superiority. The proposed MVFNet can achieve state-of-the-art performance with 2D CNN's complexity.

Deep neural networks have achieved remarkable success in computer vision tasks. Existing neural networks mainly operate in the spatial domain with fixed input sizes. For practical applications, images are usually large and have to be downsampled to the predetermined input size of neural networks. Even though the downsampling operations reduce computation and the required communication bandwidth, it removes both redundant and salient information obliviously, which results in accuracy degradation. Inspired by digital signal processing theories, we analyze the spectral bias from the frequency perspective and propose a learning-based frequency selection method to identify the trivial frequency components which can be removed without accuracy loss. The proposed method of learning in the frequency domain leverages identical structures of the well-known neural networks, such as ResNet-50, MobileNetV2, and Mask R-CNN, while accepting the frequency-domain information as the input. Experiment results show that learning in the frequency domain with static channel selection can achieve higher accuracy than the conventional spatial downsampling approach and meanwhile further reduce the input data size. Specifically for ImageNet classification with the same input size, the proposed method achieves 1.41% and 0.66% top-1 accuracy improvements on ResNet-50 and MobileNetV2, respectively. Even with half input size, the proposed method still improves the top-1 accuracy on ResNet-50 by 1%. In addition, we observe a 0.8% average precision improvement on Mask R-CNN for instance segmentation on the COCO dataset.
