Video semantic segmentation (VSS) is beneficial for dealing with dynamic scenes due to the continuous property of the real-world environment. On the one hand, some methods alleviate the predicted inconsistent problem between continuous frames. On the other hand, other methods employ the previous frame as the prior information to assist in segmenting the current frame. Although the previous methods achieve superior performances on the independent and identically distributed (i.i.d) data, they can not generalize well on other unseen domains. Thus, we explore a new task, the video generalizable semantic segmentation (VGSS) task that considers both continuous frames and domain generalization. In this paper, we propose a class-wise non-salient region generalized (CNSG) framework for the VGSS task. Concretely, we first define the class-wise non-salient feature, which describes features of the class-wise non-salient region that carry more generalizable information. Then, we propose a class-wise non-salient feature reasoning strategy to select and enhance the most generalized channels adaptively. Finally, we propose an inter-frame non-salient centroid alignment loss to alleviate the predicted inconsistent problem in the VGSS task. We also extend our video-based framework to the image-based generalizable semantic segmentation (IGSS) task. Experiments demonstrate that our CNSG framework yields significant improvement in the VGSS and IGSS tasks.

The security of artificial intelligence (AI) is an important research area towards safe, reliable, and trustworthy AI systems. To accelerate the research on AI security, the Artificial Intelligence Security Competition (AISC) was organized by the Zhongguancun Laboratory, China Industrial Control Systems Cyber Emergency Response Team, Institute for Artificial Intelligence, Tsinghua University, and RealAI as part of the Zhongguancun International Frontier Technology Innovation Competition (https://www.zgc-aisc.com/en). The competition consists of three tracks, including Deepfake Security Competition, Autonomous Driving Security Competition, and Face Recognition Security Competition. This report will introduce the competition rules of these three tracks and the solutions of top-ranking teams in each track.

Learning with noisy labels is a vital topic for practical deep learning as models should be robust to noisy open-world datasets in the wild. The state-of-the-art noisy label learning approach JoCoR fails when faced with a large ratio of noisy labels. Moreover, selecting small-loss samples can also cause error accumulation as once the noisy samples are mistakenly selected as small-loss samples, they are more likely to be selected again. In this paper, we try to deal with error accumulation in noisy label learning from both model and data perspectives. We introduce mean point ensemble to utilize a more robust loss function and more information from unselected samples to reduce error accumulation from the model perspective. Furthermore, as the flip images have the same semantic meaning as the original images, we select small-loss samples according to the loss values of flip images instead of the original ones to reduce error accumulation from the data perspective. Extensive experiments on CIFAR-10, CIFAR-100, and large-scale Clothing1M show that our method outperforms state-of-the-art noisy label learning methods with different levels of label noise. Our method can also be seamlessly combined with other noisy label learning methods to further improve their performance and generalize well to other tasks.

Robotic force-based compliance control is a preferred approach to achieve high-precision assembly tasks. When the geometric features of assembly objects are asymmetric or irregular, reinforcement learning (RL) agents are gradually incorporated into the compliance controller to adapt to complex force-pose mapping which is hard to model analytically. Since force-pose mapping is strongly dependent on geometric features, a compliance controller is only optimal for current geometric features. To reduce the learning cost of assembly objects with different geometric features, this paper is devoted to answering how to reconfigure existing controllers for new assembly objects with different geometric features. In this paper, model-based parameters are first reconfigured based on the proposed Equivalent Theory of Compliance Law (ETCL). Then the RL agent is transferred based on the proposed Weighted Dimensional Policy Distillation (WDPD) method. The experiment results demonstrate that the control reconfiguration method costs less time and achieves better control performance, which confirms the validity of proposed methods.

Deep learning methods have contributed substantially to the rapid advancement of medical image segmentation, the quality of which relies on the suitable design of loss functions. Popular loss functions, including the cross-entropy and dice losses, often fall short of boundary detection, thereby limiting high-resolution downstream applications such as automated diagnoses and procedures. We developed a novel loss function that is tailored to reflect the boundary information to enhance the boundary detection. As the contrast between segmentation and background regions along the classification boundary naturally induces heterogeneity over the pixels, we propose the piece-wise two-sample t-test augmented (PTA) loss that is infused with the statistical test for such heterogeneity. We demonstrate the improved boundary detection power of the PTA loss compared to benchmark losses without a t-test component.

In this work, we present a dense tracking and mapping system named Vox-Fusion, which seamlessly fuses neural implicit representations with traditional volumetric fusion methods. Our approach is inspired by the recently developed implicit mapping and positioning system and further extends the idea so that it can be freely applied to practical scenarios. Specifically, we leverage a voxel-based neural implicit surface representation to encode and optimize the scene inside each voxel. Furthermore, we adopt an octree-based structure to divide the scene and support dynamic expansion, enabling our system to track and map arbitrary scenes without knowing the environment like in previous works. Moreover, we proposed a high-performance multi-process framework to speed up the method, thus supporting some applications that require real-time performance. The evaluation results show that our methods can achieve better accuracy and completeness than previous methods. We also show that our Vox-Fusion can be used in augmented reality and virtual reality applications. Our source code is publicly available at https://github.com/zju3dv/Vox-Fusion.

对使用基于深度学习的方法来实现正电子发射断层扫描（PET CT）扫描中的病变的完全自动分割的研究兴趣越来越多，以实现各种癌症的预后。医学图像细分的最新进展表明，NNUNET对于各种任务是可行的。但是，PET图像中的病变分割并不直接，因为病变和生理摄取具有相似的分布模式。它们的区别需要CT图像中的额外结构信息。本文引入了一种基于NNUNET的病变分割任务的方法。提出的模型是根据关节2D和3D NNUNET结构设计的，以预测整个身体的病变。它允许对潜在病变的自动分割。我们在AUTOPET挑战的背景下评估了所提出的方法，该方法衡量了骰子评分指标，假阳性体积和假阴性体积的病变分割性能。

我们提出了针对微小神经网络的域概括（DG）的系统研究，这个问题对于机上机器学习应用至关重要，但在研究仅针对大型模型的文献中被忽略了。微小的神经网络具有较少的参数和较低的复杂性，因此不应以与DG应用的大型同行相同的方式进行训练。我们发现知识蒸馏是解决问题的有力候选者：它优于使用具有较大利润的大型模型开发的最先进的DG方法。此外，我们观察到，与域移动有关的测试数据上的教师学生绩效差距大于分布数据的绩效差距。为了改善微小神经网络而不增加部署成本的DG，我们提出了一个简单的想法，称为分布外知识蒸馏（OKD），该想法旨在教导学生如何处理（综合）分发数据和分布数据和被证明是解决问题的有前途的框架。我们还为创建DG数据集的可扩展方法（在上下文中称为域移动（DOSCO））提供了可扩展的方法，该数据可以在不大量努力的情况下按大规模应用大量数据。代码和模型以\ url {https://github.com/kaiyangzhou/on-device-dg}发布。

本文探讨了管状结构提取任务的点集表示。与传统的掩码表示相比，点集表示享有其灵活性和表示能力，这不会受到固定网格作为掩模的限制。受此启发，我们提出了PointCatter，这是管状结构提取任务的分割模型的替代方法。PointCatter将图像分为散射区域，并对每个散点区域预测点。我们进一步提出了基于贪婪的区域的两分匹配算法，以端到端训练网络。我们在四个公共管状数据集上基准测试了点刻表，并且有关管状结构分割和中心线提取任务的广泛实验证明了我们方法的有效性。代码可在https://github.com/zhangzhao2022/pointscatter上找到。

从观察数据中恢复基本的定向无环形结构（DAG），由于DAG受限的优化问题的组合性质，因此极具挑战性。最近，通过将DAG约束将DAG的限制定义为平滑的平等性，通常基于邻接矩阵上的多项式，将DAG学习作为连续优化问题。现有方法将非常小的系数放在高阶多项式术语上以进行稳定，因为它们认为由于数字爆炸而导致高阶项上的大系数有害。相反，我们发现，高阶术语上的大系数对DAG学习有益，当邻接矩阵的光谱辐射小时，高阶术语的较大系数可以比小尺寸近似于小的限制。同行。基于此，我们提出了一种具有有效截短的矩阵功率迭代的新型DAG学习方法，以近似于基于几何序列的DAG约束。从经验上讲，我们的DAG学习方法在各种环境中的表现优于先前的最新方法，在结构锤距离上通常以3倍或以上的倍数。
