Human parsing aims to partition humans in image or video into multiple pixel-level semantic parts. In the last decade, it has gained significantly increased interest in the computer vision community and has been utilized in a broad range of practical applications, from security monitoring, to social media, to visual special effects, just to name a few. Although deep learning-based human parsing solutions have made remarkable achievements, many important concepts, existing challenges, and potential research directions are still confusing. In this survey, we comprehensively review three core sub-tasks: single human parsing, multiple human parsing, and video human parsing, by introducing their respective task settings, background concepts, relevant problems and applications, representative literature, and datasets. We also present quantitative performance comparisons of the reviewed methods on benchmark datasets. Additionally, to promote sustainable development of the community, we put forward a transformer-based human parsing framework, providing a high-performance baseline for follow-up research through universal, concise, and extensible solutions. Finally, we point out a set of under-investigated open issues in this field and suggest new directions for future study. We also provide a regularly updated project page, to continuously track recent developments in this fast-advancing field: https://github.com/soeaver/awesome-human-parsing.

With the rapid development of deep generative models (such as Generative Adversarial Networks and Auto-encoders), AI-synthesized images of the human face are now of such high quality that humans can hardly distinguish them from pristine ones. Although existing detection methods have shown high performance in specific evaluation settings, e.g., on images from seen models or on images without real-world post-processings, they tend to suffer serious performance degradation in real-world scenarios where testing images can be generated by more powerful generation models or combined with various post-processing operations. To address this issue, we propose a Global and Local Feature Fusion (GLFF) to learn rich and discriminative representations by combining multi-scale global features from the whole image with refined local features from informative patches for face forgery detection. GLFF fuses information from two branches: the global branch to extract multi-scale semantic features and the local branch to select informative patches for detailed local artifacts extraction. Due to the lack of a face forgery dataset simulating real-world applications for evaluation, we further create a challenging face forgery dataset, named DeepFakeFaceForensics (DF^3), which contains 6 state-of-the-art generation models and a variety of post-processing techniques to approach the real-world scenarios. Experimental results demonstrate the superiority of our method to the state-of-the-art methods on the proposed DF^3 dataset and three other open-source datasets.

在各种图像处理和计算机视觉任务中经常遇到颜色图像Denoising。一种传统的策略是将RGB图像转换为较小相关的颜色空间，并分别将新空间的每个通道定义。但是，这种策略无法完全利用渠道之间的相关信息，并且不足以获得令人满意的结果。为了解决这个问题，本文提出了一个新的多通道优化模型，用于在核定标准下减去Frobenius规范最小化框架下的颜色图像Deno。具体而言，基于块匹配，将颜色图像分解为重叠的RGB补丁。对于每个补丁，我们堆叠其相似的邻居以形成相应的补丁矩阵。提出的模型是在补丁矩阵上执行的，以恢复其无噪声版本。在恢复过程中，a）引入权重矩阵以充分利用通道之间的噪声差； b）单数值是自适应缩小的，而无需分配权重。有了他们，提议的模型可以在保持简单的同时取得有希望的结果。为了解决提出的模型，基于乘数框架的交替方向方法构建了准确有效的算法。每个更新步骤的解决方案可以在封闭式中分析表达。严格的理论分析证明了所提出的算法产生的解决方案序列会收敛到其各自的固定点。合成和真实噪声数据集的实验结果证明了所提出的模型优于最先进的模型。

区分计算机生成（CG）和自然摄影图像（PG）图像对于验证数字图像的真实性和独创性至关重要。但是，最近的尖端生成方法使CG图像中的合成质量很高，这使得这项具有挑战性的任务变得更加棘手。为了解决这个问题，提出了具有深层质地和高频特征的联合学习策略，以进行CG图像检测。我们首先制定并深入分析CG和PG图像的不同采集过程。基于这样的发现，即图像采集中的多个不同模块将导致对图像中基于卷积神经网络（CNN）渲染的不同敏感性不一致，我们提出了一个深层纹理渲染模块，以增强纹理差异和歧视性纹理表示。具体而言，生成语义分割图来指导仿射转换操作，该操作用于恢复输入图像不同区域中的纹理。然后，原始图像和原始图像和渲染图像的高频组件的组合被馈入配备了注意机制的多支球神经网络，该神经网络分别优化了中间特征，并分别促进了空间和通道维度的痕量探索。在两个公共数据集和一个具有更现实和多样化图像的新构建的数据集上进行的广泛实验表明，所提出的方法的表现优于现有方法，从而明确的余量。此外，结果还证明了拟议方法后处理操作和生成对抗网络（GAN）生成的图像的检测鲁棒性和泛化能力。

从生物力学的角度来看，秋千臂在通过更大的角动量控制空间通过更大的角动量控制空间来促进两体机器人的高度动态运动方面具有不可替代的作用。由于缺乏适当的运动控制策略，很少有双足机器人使用摇摆臂及其多个自由度的冗余特征来完美整合建模和控制。本文通过将两足机器人建模为飞轮弹簧载倒摆（F-SLIP）来提取挥杆臂的特征并使用全身控制器（WBC）来实现这些特征，并提出了建议，并提出了建议，也建议您提出，则本文提出了一种控制策略。一个评估系统，包括美国定义的敏捷性的三个方面，双皮亚机器人高度动态运动的稳定性和能耗。我们设计了几组仿真实验，并根据评估系统的紫色运动（东方紫能量上升）V1.0分析了摇臂的效果，这是一种旨在测试高爆炸性运动的两足机器人。结果表明，紫色的敏捷性增加了10％以上，稳定时间减少了两倍，并且引入挥杆臂后，能源消耗降低了20％以上。

In this paper, we propose a robust 3D detector, named Cross Modal Transformer (CMT), for end-to-end 3D multi-modal detection. Without explicit view transformation, CMT takes the image and point clouds tokens as inputs and directly outputs accurate 3D bounding boxes. The spatial alignment of multi-modal tokens is performed implicitly, by encoding the 3D points into multi-modal features. The core design of CMT is quite simple while its performance is impressive. CMT obtains 73.0% NDS on nuScenes benchmark. Moreover, CMT has a strong robustness even if the LiDAR is missing. Code will be released at https://github.com/junjie18/CMT.

A recent study has shown a phenomenon called neural collapse in that the within-class means of features and the classifier weight vectors converge to the vertices of a simplex equiangular tight frame at the terminal phase of training for classification. In this paper, we explore the corresponding structures of the last-layer feature centers and classifiers in semantic segmentation. Based on our empirical and theoretical analysis, we point out that semantic segmentation naturally brings contextual correlation and imbalanced distribution among classes, which breaks the equiangular and maximally separated structure of neural collapse for both feature centers and classifiers. However, such a symmetric structure is beneficial to discrimination for the minor classes. To preserve these advantages, we introduce a regularizer on feature centers to encourage the network to learn features closer to the appealing structure in imbalanced semantic segmentation. Experimental results show that our method can bring significant improvements on both 2D and 3D semantic segmentation benchmarks. Moreover, our method ranks 1st and sets a new record (+6.8% mIoU) on the ScanNet200 test leaderboard. Code will be available at https://github.com/dvlab-research/Imbalanced-Learning.

Witnessing the impressive achievements of pre-training techniques on large-scale data in the field of computer vision and natural language processing, we wonder whether this idea could be adapted in a grab-and-go spirit, and mitigate the sample inefficiency problem for visuomotor driving. Given the highly dynamic and variant nature of the input, the visuomotor driving task inherently lacks view and translation invariance, and the visual input contains massive irrelevant information for decision making, resulting in predominant pre-training approaches from general vision less suitable for the autonomous driving task. To this end, we propose PPGeo (Policy Pre-training via Geometric modeling), an intuitive and straightforward fully self-supervised framework curated for the policy pretraining in visuomotor driving. We aim at learning policy representations as a powerful abstraction by modeling 3D geometric scenes on large-scale unlabeled and uncalibrated YouTube driving videos. The proposed PPGeo is performed in two stages to support effective self-supervised training. In the first stage, the geometric modeling framework generates pose and depth predictions simultaneously, with two consecutive frames as input. In the second stage, the visual encoder learns driving policy representation by predicting the future ego-motion and optimizing with the photometric error based on current visual observation only. As such, the pre-trained visual encoder is equipped with rich driving policy related representations and thereby competent for multiple visuomotor driving tasks. Extensive experiments covering a wide span of challenging scenarios have demonstrated the superiority of our proposed approach, where improvements range from 2% to even over 100% with very limited data. Code and models will be available at https://github.com/OpenDriveLab/PPGeo.

This paper illustrates the technologies of user next intent prediction with a concept knowledge graph. The system has been deployed on the Web at Alipay, serving more than 100 million daily active users. Specifically, we propose AlipayKG to explicitly characterize user intent, which is an offline concept knowledge graph in the Life-Service domain modeling the historical behaviors of users, the rich content interacted by users and the relations between them. We further introduce a Transformer-based model which integrates expert rules from the knowledge graph to infer the online user's next intent. Experimental results demonstrate that the proposed system can effectively enhance the performance of the downstream tasks while retaining explainability.

Cashews are grown by over 3 million smallholders in more than 40 countries worldwide as a principal source of income. As the third largest cashew producer in Africa, Benin has nearly 200,000 smallholder cashew growers contributing 15% of the country's national export earnings. However, a lack of information on where and how cashew trees grow across the country hinders decision-making that could support increased cashew production and poverty alleviation. By leveraging 2.4-m Planet Basemaps and 0.5-m aerial imagery, newly developed deep learning algorithms, and large-scale ground truth datasets, we successfully produced the first national map of cashew in Benin and characterized the expansion of cashew plantations between 2015 and 2021. In particular, we developed a SpatioTemporal Classification with Attention (STCA) model to map the distribution of cashew plantations, which can fully capture texture information from discriminative time steps during a growing season. We further developed a Clustering Augmented Self-supervised Temporal Classification (CASTC) model to distinguish high-density versus low-density cashew plantations by automatic feature extraction and optimized clustering. Results show that the STCA model has an overall accuracy of 80% and the CASTC model achieved an overall accuracy of 77.9%. We found that the cashew area in Benin has doubled from 2015 to 2021 with 60% of new plantation development coming from cropland or fallow land, while encroachment of cashew plantations into protected areas has increased by 70%. Only half of cashew plantations were high-density in 2021, suggesting high potential for intensification. Our study illustrates the power of combining high-resolution remote sensing imagery and state-of-the-art deep learning algorithms to better understand tree crops in the heterogeneous smallholder landscape.
