Deep Video Multi-task Learning Towards Generalized Visual Scene Enhancement and Understanding
PublicationThe goal of this thesis was to develop efficient video multi-task convolutional architectures for a range of diverse vision tasks, on RGB scenes, leveraging i) task relationships and ii) motion information to improve multi-task performance. The approach we take starts from the integration of diverse tasks within video multi-task learning networks. We present the first two datasets of their kind in the existing literature, featuring...

BP-EVD: Forward Block-Output Propagation for Efficient Video Denoising
PublicationDenoising videos in real-time is critical in many applications, including robotics and medicine, where varying light conditions, miniaturized sensors, and optics can substantially compromise image quality. This work proposes the first video denoising method based on a deep neural network that achieves state-of-the-art performance on dynamic scenes while running in real-time on VGA video resolution with no frame latency. The backbone...

Multi-task Video Enhancement for Dental Interventions
PublicationA microcamera firmly attached to a dental handpiece allows dentists to continuously monitor the progress of conservative dental procedures. Video enhancement in video-assisted dental interventions alleviates low-light, noise, blur, and camera handshakes that collectively degrade visual comfort. To this end, we introduce a novel deep network for multi-task video enhancement that enables macro-visualization of dental scenes. In particular,...

Concurrent Video Denoising and Deblurring for Dynamic Scenes
PublicationDynamic scene video deblurring is a challenging task due to the spatially variant blur inflicted by independently moving objects and camera shakes. Recent deep learning works bypass the ill-posedness of explicitly deriving the blur kernel by learning pixel-to-pixel mappings, which is commonly enhanced by larger region awareness. This is a difficult yet simplified scenario because noise is neglected when it is omnipresent in a wide...

Leveraging spatio-temporal features for joint deblurring and segmentation of instruments in dental video microscopy
PublicationIn dentistry, microscopes have become indispensable optical devices for high-quality treatment and micro-invasive surgery, especially in the field of endodontics. Recent machine vision advances enable more advanced, real-time applications including but not limited to dental video deblurring and workflow analysis through relevant metadata obtained by instrument motion trajectories. To this end, the proposed work addresses dental...

A Triplet-Learnt Coarse-to-Fine Reranking for Vehicle Re-identification
PublicationVehicle re-identification refers to the task of matching the same query vehicle across non-overlapping cameras and diverse viewpoints. Research interest on the field emerged with intelligent transportation systems and the necessity for public security maintenance. Compared to person, vehicle re-identification is more intricate, facing the challenges of lower intra-class and higher inter-class similarities. Motivated by deep...
