在线和离线手写的中文文本识别（HTCR）已经研究了数十年。早期方法采用了基于过度裂段的策略，但遭受低速，准确性不足和角色分割注释的高成本。最近，基于连接主义者时间分类（CTC）和注意机制的无分割方法主导了HCTR的领域。但是，人们实际上是按字符读取文本的，尤其是对于中文等意识形态图。这就提出了一个问题：无细分策略真的是HCTR的最佳解决方案吗？为了探索此问题，我们提出了一种基于细分的新方法，用于识别使用简单但有效的完全卷积网络实现的手写中文文本。提出了一种新型的弱监督学习方法，以使网络仅使用笔录注释进行训练。因此，可以避免以前基于细分的方法所需的昂贵字符分割注释。由于缺乏完全卷积网络中的上下文建模，我们提出了一种上下文正则化方法，以在培训阶段将上下文信息集成到网络中，这可以进一步改善识别性能。在四个广泛使用的基准测试中进行的广泛实验，即Casia-HWDB，Casia-Olhwdb，ICDAR2013和Scut-HCCDOC，表明我们的方法在线和离线HCTR上都显着超过了现有方法，并且表现出比CTC/ CTC/ CTC/ CTC/ CTC/速度高得多的方法。基于注意力的方法。

现有的文本识别方法通常需要大规模培训数据。由于缺乏带注释的真实图像，他们中的大多数依靠合成训练数据。但是，合成数据和真实数据之间存在域差距，这限制了文本识别模型的性能。最近的自我监督文本识别方法试图通过引入对比度学习来利用未标记的真实图像，这主要学习文本图像的歧视。受到人类学会通过阅读和写作识别文本的观察的启发，我们建议通过在我们的自我监督方法中整合对比度学习和掩盖图像建模来学习歧视和产生。采用对比学习分支来学习对文本图像的歧视，这模仿了人类的阅读行为。同时，首先引入了蒙版的图像建模，以了解文本识别，以了解文本图像的上下文生成，这类似于写作行为。实验结果表明，在不规则场景文本识别数据集上，我们的方法比以前的自我监督文本识别方法优于先前的自我监督文本识别方法。此外，我们提出的文本识别器超过了先前的最新文本识别方法，在11个基准测试中，平均5.3％，模型大小相似。我们还证明，我们的预培训模型可以轻松地应用于具有明显性能增益的其他文本相关任务。

几乎所有场景文本发现（检测和识别）方法依赖于昂贵的框注释（例如，文本线框，单词级框和字符级框）。我们首次证明培训场景文本发现模型可以通过每个实例的单点的极低成本注释来实现。我们提出了一种端到端的场景文本发现方法，将场景文本拍摄作为序列预测任务，如语言建模。给予图像作为输入，我们将所需的检测和识别结果作为一系列离散令牌制定，并使用自动回归变压器来预测序列。我们在几个水平，多面向和任意形状的场景文本基准上实现了有希望的结果。最重要的是，我们表明性能对点注释的位置不是很敏感，这意味着它可以比需要精确位置的边界盒更容易地注释并自动生成。我们认为，这种先锋尝试表明了场景文本的重要机会，比以前可能的比例更大的比例更大。

文本跟踪是在视频中跟踪多个文本，并为每个文本构造轨迹。现有方法通过利用逐个检测帧工作，即，检测每个帧中的文本实例，并在连续帧中的相应文本实例中检测到文本实例。我们认为，这种范式的跟踪准确性在更复杂的场景中严重限制，例如，由于行为模糊等，未错过的文本实例的错误检测文本轨迹的突破。此外，具有类似外观的不同TextInstances很容易混淆，导致文本实例的错误关联。为此，在本文中推出了一种新的时空互补文本跟踪模型。我们利用暹罗互补的模型来充分利用时间维度中的TextInstances的连续性特征，从而有效地解除了对文本实例的检测失去了检测，因此是每个文本轨迹的完整性。我们进一步通过文本相似度学习网络进一步整合了文本实例的语义提示和文本实例的视觉提示，该网络通过文本相似度学习网络提供了在具有类似外观的特性实例的存在中提供了高辨别力，因此避免了它们之间的误解。我们的方法在几个公共基准上实现了最先进的性能。在https://github.com/lsabrinax/videotextscm中提供的源代码。

Benefiting from the intrinsic supervision information exploitation capability, contrastive learning has achieved promising performance in the field of deep graph clustering recently. However, we observe that two drawbacks of the positive and negative sample construction mechanisms limit the performance of existing algorithms from further improvement. 1) The quality of positive samples heavily depends on the carefully designed data augmentations, while inappropriate data augmentations would easily lead to the semantic drift and indiscriminative positive samples. 2) The constructed negative samples are not reliable for ignoring important clustering information. To solve these problems, we propose a Cluster-guided Contrastive deep Graph Clustering network (CCGC) by mining the intrinsic supervision information in the high-confidence clustering results. Specifically, instead of conducting complex node or edge perturbation, we construct two views of the graph by designing special Siamese encoders whose weights are not shared between the sibling sub-networks. Then, guided by the high-confidence clustering information, we carefully select and construct the positive samples from the same high-confidence cluster in two views. Moreover, to construct semantic meaningful negative sample pairs, we regard the centers of different high-confidence clusters as negative samples, thus improving the discriminative capability and reliability of the constructed sample pairs. Lastly, we design an objective function to pull close the samples from the same cluster while pushing away those from other clusters by maximizing and minimizing the cross-view cosine similarity between positive and negative samples. Extensive experimental results on six datasets demonstrate the effectiveness of CCGC compared with the existing state-of-the-art algorithms.

To generate high quality rendering images for real time applications, it is often to trace only a few samples-per-pixel (spp) at a lower resolution and then supersample to the high resolution. Based on the observation that the rendered pixels at a low resolution are typically highly aliased, we present a novel method for neural supersampling based on ray tracing 1/4-spp samples at the high resolution. Our key insight is that the ray-traced samples at the target resolution are accurate and reliable, which makes the supersampling an interpolation problem. We present a mask-reinforced neural network to reconstruct and interpolate high-quality image sequences. First, a novel temporal accumulation network is introduced to compute the correlation between current and previous features to significantly improve their temporal stability. Then a reconstruct network based on a multi-scale U-Net with skip connections is adopted for reconstruction and generation of the desired high-resolution image. Experimental results and comparisons have shown that our proposed method can generate higher quality results of supersampling, without increasing the total number of ray-tracing samples, over current state-of-the-art methods.

Temporal sentence grounding (TSG) aims to identify the temporal boundary of a specific segment from an untrimmed video by a sentence query. All existing works first utilize a sparse sampling strategy to extract a fixed number of video frames and then conduct multi-modal interactions with query sentence for reasoning. However, we argue that these methods have overlooked two indispensable issues: 1) Boundary-bias: The annotated target segment generally refers to two specific frames as corresponding start and end timestamps. The video downsampling process may lose these two frames and take the adjacent irrelevant frames as new boundaries. 2) Reasoning-bias: Such incorrect new boundary frames also lead to the reasoning bias during frame-query interaction, reducing the generalization ability of model. To alleviate above limitations, in this paper, we propose a novel Siamese Sampling and Reasoning Network (SSRN) for TSG, which introduces a siamese sampling mechanism to generate additional contextual frames to enrich and refine the new boundaries. Specifically, a reasoning strategy is developed to learn the inter-relationship among these frames and generate soft labels on boundaries for more accurate frame-query reasoning. Such mechanism is also able to supplement the absent consecutive visual semantics to the sampled sparse frames for fine-grained activity understanding. Extensive experiments demonstrate the effectiveness of SSRN on three challenging datasets.

Representing and synthesizing novel views in real-world dynamic scenes from casual monocular videos is a long-standing problem. Existing solutions typically approach dynamic scenes by applying geometry techniques or utilizing temporal information between several adjacent frames without considering the underlying background distribution in the entire scene or the transmittance over the ray dimension, limiting their performance on static and occlusion areas. Our approach $\textbf{D}$istribution-$\textbf{D}$riven neural radiance fields offers high-quality view synthesis and a 3D solution to $\textbf{D}$etach the background from the entire $\textbf{D}$ynamic scene, which is called $\text{D}^4$NeRF. Specifically, it employs a neural representation to capture the scene distribution in the static background and a 6D-input NeRF to represent dynamic objects, respectively. Each ray sample is given an additional occlusion weight to indicate the transmittance lying in the static and dynamic components. We evaluate $\text{D}^4$NeRF on public dynamic scenes and our urban driving scenes acquired from an autonomous-driving dataset. Extensive experiments demonstrate that our approach outperforms previous methods in rendering texture details and motion areas while also producing a clean static background. Our code will be released at https://github.com/Luciferbobo/D4NeRF.

Deploying reliable deep learning techniques in interdisciplinary applications needs learned models to output accurate and ({even more importantly}) explainable predictions. Existing approaches typically explicate network outputs in a post-hoc fashion, under an implicit assumption that faithful explanations come from accurate predictions/classifications. We have an opposite claim that explanations boost (or even determine) classification. That is, end-to-end learning of explanation factors to augment discriminative representation extraction could be a more intuitive strategy to inversely assure fine-grained explainability, e.g., in those neuroimaging and neuroscience studies with high-dimensional data containing noisy, redundant, and task-irrelevant information. In this paper, we propose such an explainable geometric deep network dubbed as NeuroExplainer, with applications to uncover altered infant cortical development patterns associated with preterm birth. Given fundamental cortical attributes as network input, our NeuroExplainer adopts a hierarchical attention-decoding framework to learn fine-grained attentions and respective discriminative representations to accurately recognize preterm infants from term-born infants at term-equivalent age. NeuroExplainer learns the hierarchical attention-decoding modules under subject-level weak supervision coupled with targeted regularizers deduced from domain knowledge regarding brain development. These prior-guided constraints implicitly maximizes the explainability metrics (i.e., fidelity, sparsity, and stability) in network training, driving the learned network to output detailed explanations and accurate classifications. Experimental results on the public dHCP benchmark suggest that NeuroExplainer led to quantitatively reliable explanation results that are qualitatively consistent with representative neuroimaging studies.

Domain adaptation methods reduce domain shift typically by learning domain-invariant features. Most existing methods are built on distribution matching, e.g., adversarial domain adaptation, which tends to corrupt feature discriminability. In this paper, we propose Discriminative Radial Domain Adaptation (DRDR) which bridges source and target domains via a shared radial structure. It's motivated by the observation that as the model is trained to be progressively discriminative, features of different categories expand outwards in different directions, forming a radial structure. We show that transferring such an inherently discriminative structure would enable to enhance feature transferability and discriminability simultaneously. Specifically, we represent each domain with a global anchor and each category a local anchor to form a radial structure and reduce domain shift via structure matching. It consists of two parts, namely isometric transformation to align the structure globally and local refinement to match each category. To enhance the discriminability of the structure, we further encourage samples to cluster close to the corresponding local anchors based on optimal-transport assignment. Extensively experimenting on multiple benchmarks, our method is shown to consistently outperforms state-of-the-art approaches on varied tasks, including the typical unsupervised domain adaptation, multi-source domain adaptation, domain-agnostic learning, and domain generalization.
