Deep Convolutional Neural Networks (CNNs) have been widely used in various domains due to their impressive capabilities. These models are typically composed of a large number of 2D convolutional (Conv2D) layers with numerous trainable parameters. To reduce the complexity of a network, compression techniques can be applied. These methods typically rely on the analysis of trained deep learning models. However, in some applications, due to reasons such as particular data or system specifications and licensing restrictions, a pre-trained network may not be available. This would require the user to train a CNN from scratch. In this paper, we aim to find an alternative parameterization to Conv2D filters without relying on a pre-trained convolutional network. During the analysis, we observe that the effective rank of the vectorized Conv2D filters decreases with respect to the increasing depth in the network, which then leads to the implementation of the Depthwise Convolutional Eigen-Filter (DeCEF) layer. Essentially, a DeCEF layer is a low rank version of the Conv2D layer with significantly fewer trainable parameters and floating point operations (FLOPs). The way we define the effective rank is different from the previous work and it is easy to implement in any deep learning frameworks. To evaluate the effectiveness of DeCEF, experiments are conducted on the benchmark datasets CIFAR-10 and ImageNet using various network architectures. The results have shown a similar or higher accuracy and robustness using about 2/3 of the original parameters and reducing the number of FLOPs to 2/3 of the base network, which is then compared to the state-of-the-art techniques.

Power iteration is a fundamental algorithm in data analysis. It extracts the eigenvector corresponding to the largest eigenvalue of a given matrix. Applications include ranking algorithms, recommendation systems, principal component analysis (PCA), among many others. In this paper, we introduce multiplication-avoiding power iteration (MAPI), which replaces the standard $\ell_2$-inner products that appear at the regular power iteration (RPI) with multiplication-free vector products which are Mercer-type kernel operations related with the $\ell_1$ norm. Precisely, for an $n\times n$ matrix, MAPI requires $n$ multiplications, while RPI needs $n^2$ multiplications per iteration. Therefore, MAPI provides a significant reduction of the number of multiplication operations, which are known to be costly in terms of energy consumption. We provide applications of MAPI to PCA-based image reconstruction as well as to graph-based ranking algorithms. When compared to RPI, MAPI not only typically converges much faster, but also provides superior performance.

Node clustering is a powerful tool in the analysis of networks. We introduce a graph neural network framework to obtain node embeddings for directed networks in a self-supervised manner, including a novel probabilistic imbalance loss, which can be used for network clustering. Here, we propose directed flow imbalance measures, which are tightly related to directionality, to reveal clusters in the network even when there is no density difference between clusters. In contrast to standard approaches in the literature, in this paper, directionality is not treated as a nuisance, but rather contains the main signal. DIGRAC optimizes directed flow imbalance for clustering without requiring label supervision, unlike existing GNN methods, and can naturally incorporate node features, unlike existing spectral methods. Experimental results on synthetic data, in the form of directed stochastic block models, and real-world data at different scales, demonstrate that our method, based on flow imbalance, attains state-of-the-art results on directed graph clustering when compared against 10 methods from the literature, for a wide range of noise and sparsity levels and graph structures and topologies, and even outperforms supervised methods.

Semantic segmentation of 3D point cloud is an essential task for autonomous driving environment perception. The pipeline of most pointwise point cloud semantic segmentation methods includes points sampling, neighbor searching, feature aggregation, and classification. Neighbor searching method like K-nearest neighbors algorithm, KNN, has been widely applied. However, the complexity of KNN is always a bottleneck of efficiency. In this paper, we propose an end-to-end neural architecture, Multiple View Pointwise Net, MVP-Net, to efficiently and directly infer large-scale outdoor point cloud without KNN or any complex pre/postprocessing. Instead, assumption-based sorting and multi-rotation of point cloud methods are introduced to point feature aggregation and receptive field expanding. Numerical experiments show that the proposed MVP-Net is 11 times faster than the most efficient pointwise semantic segmentation method RandLA-Net and achieves the same accuracy on the large-scale benchmark SemanticKITTI dataset.

The distinguishing geometric features determine the success of point cloud registration. However, most point clouds are partially overlapping, corrupted by noise, and comprised of indistinguishable surfaces, which makes it a challenge to extract discriminative features. Here, we propose the Neighborhood-aware Geometric Encoding Network (NgeNet) for accurate point cloud registration. NgeNet utilizes a geometric guided encoding module to take geometric characteristics into consideration, a multi-scale architecture to focus on the semantically rich regions in different scales, and a consistent voting strategy to select features with proper neighborhood size and reject the specious features. The awareness of adaptive neighborhood points is obtained through the multi-scale architecture accompanied by voting. Specifically, the proposed techniques in NgeNet are model-agnostic, which could be easily migrated to other networks. Comprehensive experiments on indoor, outdoor and object-centric synthetic datasets demonstrate that NgeNet surpasses all of the published state-of-the-art methods. The code will be available at //github.com/zhulf0804/NgeNet.

In this work, we propose a generally applicable transformation unit for visual recognition with deep convolutional neural networks. This transformation explicitly models channel relationships with explainable control variables. These variables determine the neuron behaviors of competition or cooperation, and they are jointly optimized with the convolutional weight towards more accurate recognition. In Squeeze-and-Excitation (SE) Networks, the channel relationships are implicitly learned by fully connected layers, and the SE block is integrated at the block-level. We instead introduce a channel normalization layer to reduce the number of parameters and computational complexity. This lightweight layer incorporates a simple l2 normalization, enabling our transformation unit applicable to operator-level without much increase of additional parameters. Extensive experiments demonstrate the effectiveness of our unit with clear margins on many vision tasks, i.e., image classification on ImageNet, object detection and instance segmentation on COCO, video classification on Kinetics.

Point cloud is point sets defined in 3D metric space. Point cloud has become one of the most significant data format for 3D representation. Its gaining increased popularity as a result of increased availability of acquisition devices, such as LiDAR, as well as increased application in areas such as robotics, autonomous driving, augmented and virtual reality. Deep learning is now the most powerful tool for data processing in computer vision, becoming the most preferred technique for tasks such as classification, segmentation, and detection. While deep learning techniques are mainly applied to data with a structured grid, point cloud, on the other hand, is unstructured. The unstructuredness of point clouds makes use of deep learning for its processing directly very challenging. Earlier approaches overcome this challenge by preprocessing the point cloud into a structured grid format at the cost of increased computational cost or lost of depth information. Recently, however, many state-of-the-arts deep learning techniques that directly operate on point cloud are being developed. This paper contains a survey of the recent state-of-the-art deep learning techniques that mainly focused on point cloud data. We first briefly discussed the major challenges faced when using deep learning directly on point cloud, we also briefly discussed earlier approaches which overcome the challenges by preprocessing the point cloud into a structured grid. We then give the review of the various state-of-the-art deep learning approaches that directly process point cloud in its unstructured form. We introduced the popular 3D point cloud benchmark datasets. And we also further discussed the application of deep learning in popular 3D vision tasks including classification, segmentation and detection.

We study the problem of efficient semantic segmentation for large-scale 3D point clouds. By relying on expensive sampling techniques or computationally heavy pre/post-processing steps, most existing approaches are only able to be trained and operate over small-scale point clouds. In this paper, we introduce RandLA-Net, an efficient and lightweight neural architecture to directly infer per-point semantics for large-scale point clouds. The key to our approach is to use random point sampling instead of more complex point selection approaches. Although remarkably computation and memory efficient, random sampling can discard key features by chance. To overcome this, we introduce a novel local feature aggregation module to progressively increase the receptive field for each 3D point, thereby effectively preserving geometric details. Extensive experiments show that our RandLA-Net can process 1 million points in a single pass with up to 200X faster than existing approaches. Moreover, our RandLA-Net clearly surpasses state-of-the-art approaches for semantic segmentation on two large-scale benchmarks Semantic3D and SemanticKITTI.

Vision-based Simultaneous Localization And Mapping (VSLAM) is a mature problem in Robotics. Most VSLAM systems are feature based methods, which are robust and present high accuracy, but yield sparse maps with limited application for further navigation tasks. Most recently, direct methods which operate directly on image intensity have been introduced, capable of reconstructing richer maps at the cost of higher processing power. In this work, an edge-based monocular SLAM system (SE-SLAM) is proposed as a middle point: edges present good localization as point features, while enabling a structural semidense map reconstruction. However, edges are not easy to associate, track and optimize over time, as they lack descriptors and biunivocal correspondence, unlike point features. To tackle these issues, this paper presents a method to match edges between frames in a consistent manner; a feasible strategy to solve the optimization problem, since its size rapidly increases when working with edges; and the use of non-linear optimization techniques. The resulting system achieves comparable precision to state of the art feature-based and dense/semi-dense systems, while inherently building a structural semi-dense reconstruction of the environment, providing relevant structure data for further navigation algorithms. To achieve such accuracy, state of the art non-linear optimization is needed, over a continuous feed of 10000 edgepoints per frame, to optimize the full semi-dense output. Despite its heavy processing requirements, the system achieves near to real-time operation, thanks to a custom built solver and parallelization of its key stages. In order to encourage further development of edge-based SLAM systems, SE-SLAM source code will be released as open source.

With pervasive applications of medical imaging in health-care, biomedical image segmentation plays a central role in quantitative analysis, clinical diagno- sis, and medical intervention. Since manual anno- tation su ers limited reproducibility, arduous e orts, and excessive time, automatic segmentation is desired to process increasingly larger scale histopathological data. Recently, deep neural networks (DNNs), par- ticularly fully convolutional networks (FCNs), have been widely applied to biomedical image segmenta- tion, attaining much improved performance. At the same time, quantization of DNNs has become an ac- tive research topic, which aims to represent weights with less memory (precision) to considerably reduce memory and computation requirements of DNNs while maintaining acceptable accuracy. In this paper, we apply quantization techniques to FCNs for accurate biomedical image segmentation. Unlike existing litera- ture on quantization which primarily targets memory and computation complexity reduction, we apply quan- tization as a method to reduce over tting in FCNs for better accuracy. Speci cally, we focus on a state-of- the-art segmentation framework, suggestive annotation [22], which judiciously extracts representative annota- tion samples from the original training dataset, obtain- ing an e ective small-sized balanced training dataset. We develop two new quantization processes for this framework: (1) suggestive annotation with quantiza- tion for highly representative training samples, and (2) network training with quantization for high accuracy. Extensive experiments on the MICCAI Gland dataset show that both quantization processes can improve the segmentation performance, and our proposed method exceeds the current state-of-the-art performance by up to 1%. In addition, our method has a reduction of up to 6.4x on memory usage.
