Contrastive deep graph clustering, which aims to divide nodes into disjoint groups via contrastive mechanisms, is a challenging research spot. Among the recent works, hard sample mining-based algorithms have achieved great attention for their promising performance. However, we find that the existing hard sample mining methods have two problems as follows. 1) In the hardness measurement, the important structural information is overlooked for similarity calculation, degrading the representativeness of the selected hard negative samples. 2) Previous works merely focus on the hard negative sample pairs while neglecting the hard positive sample pairs. Nevertheless, samples within the same cluster but with low similarity should also be carefully learned. To solve the problems, we propose a novel contrastive deep graph clustering method dubbed Hard Sample Aware Network (HSAN) by introducing a comprehensive similarity measure criterion and a general dynamic sample weighing strategy. Concretely, in our algorithm, the similarities between samples are calculated by considering both the attribute embeddings and the structure embeddings, better revealing sample relationships and assisting hardness measurement. Moreover, under the guidance of the carefully collected high-confidence clustering information, our proposed weight modulating function will first recognize the positive and negative samples and then dynamically up-weight the hard sample pairs while down-weighting the easy ones. In this way, our method can mine not only the hard negative samples but also the hard positive sample, thus improving the discriminative capability of the samples further. Extensive experiments and analyses demonstrate the superiority and effectiveness of our proposed method.

Recent studies on semi-supervised semantic segmentation (SSS) have seen fast progress. Despite their promising performance, current state-of-the-art methods tend to increasingly complex designs at the cost of introducing more network components and additional training procedures. Differently, in this work, we follow a standard teacher-student framework and propose AugSeg, a simple and clean approach that focuses mainly on data perturbations to boost the SSS performance. We argue that various data augmentations should be adjusted to better adapt to the semi-supervised scenarios instead of directly applying these techniques from supervised learning. Specifically, we adopt a simplified intensity-based augmentation that selects a random number of data transformations with uniformly sampling distortion strengths from a continuous space. Based on the estimated confidence of the model on different unlabeled samples, we also randomly inject labelled information to augment the unlabeled samples in an adaptive manner. Without bells and whistles, our simple AugSeg can readily achieve new state-of-the-art performance on SSS benchmarks under different partition protocols.

This work introduces alternating latent topologies (ALTO) for high-fidelity reconstruction of implicit 3D surfaces from noisy point clouds. Previous work identifies that the spatial arrangement of latent encodings is important to recover detail. One school of thought is to encode a latent vector for each point (point latents). Another school of thought is to project point latents into a grid (grid latents) which could be a voxel grid or triplane grid. Each school of thought has tradeoffs. Grid latents are coarse and lose high-frequency detail. In contrast, point latents preserve detail. However, point latents are more difficult to decode into a surface, and quality and runtime suffer. In this paper, we propose ALTO to sequentially alternate between geometric representations, before converging to an easy-to-decode latent. We find that this preserves spatial expressiveness and makes decoding lightweight. We validate ALTO on implicit 3D recovery and observe not only a performance improvement over the state-of-the-art, but a runtime improvement of 3-10$\times$.

Accurate polyp segmentation is of great importance for colorectal cancer diagnosis and treatment. However, due to the high cost of producing accurate mask annotations, existing polyp segmentation methods suffer from severe data shortage and impaired model generalization. Reversely, coarse polyp bounding box annotations are more accessible. Thus, in this paper, we propose a boosted BoxPolyp model to make full use of both accurate mask and extra coarse box annotations. In practice, box annotations are applied to alleviate the over-fitting issue of previous polyp segmentation models, which generate fine-grained polyp area through the iterative boosted segmentation model. To achieve this goal, a fusion filter sampling (FFS) module is firstly proposed to generate pixel-wise pseudo labels from box annotations with less noise, leading to significant performance improvements. Besides, considering the appearance consistency of the same polyp, an image consistency (IC) loss is designed. Such IC loss explicitly narrows the distance between features extracted by two different networks, which improves the robustness of the model. Note that our BoxPolyp is a plug-and-play model, which can be merged into any appealing backbone. Quantitative and qualitative experimental results on five challenging benchmarks confirm that our proposed model outperforms previous state-of-the-art methods by a large margin.

Measuring and alleviating the discrepancies between the synthetic (source) and real scene (target) data is the core issue for domain adaptive semantic segmentation. Though recent works have introduced depth information in the source domain to reinforce the geometric and semantic knowledge transfer, they cannot extract the intrinsic 3D information of objects, including positions and shapes, merely based on 2D estimated depth. In this work, we propose a novel Geometry-Aware Network for Domain Adaptation (GANDA), leveraging more compact 3D geometric point cloud representations to shrink the domain gaps. In particular, we first utilize the auxiliary depth supervision from the source domain to obtain the depth prediction in the target domain to accomplish structure-texture disentanglement. Beyond depth estimation, we explicitly exploit 3D topology on the point clouds generated from RGB-D images for further coordinate-color disentanglement and pseudo-labels refinement in the target domain. Moreover, to improve the 2D classifier in the target domain, we perform domain-invariant geometric adaptation from source to target and unify the 2D semantic and 3D geometric segmentation results in two domains. Note that our GANDA is plug-and-play in any existing UDA framework. Qualitative and quantitative results demonstrate that our model outperforms state-of-the-arts on GTA5->Cityscapes and SYNTHIA->Cityscapes.

We report the result of the first edition of the WMT shared task on Translation Suggestion (TS). The task aims to provide alternatives for specific words or phrases given the entire documents generated by machine translation (MT). It consists two sub-tasks, namely, the naive translation suggestion and translation suggestion with hints. The main difference is that some hints are provided in sub-task two, therefore, it is easier for the model to generate more accurate suggestions. For sub-task one, we provide the corpus for the language pairs English-German and English-Chinese. And only English-Chinese corpus is provided for the sub-task two. We received 92 submissions from 5 participating teams in sub-task one and 6 submissions for the sub-task 2, most of them covering all of the translation directions. We used the automatic metric BLEU for evaluating the performance of each submission.

高分辨率表示对于基于视觉的机器人抓问题很重要。现有作品通常通过子网络将输入图像编码为低分辨率表示形式，然后恢复高分辨率表示。这将丢失空间信息，当考虑多种类型的对象或远离摄像机时，解码器引入的错误将更加严重。为了解决这些问题，我们重新审视了CNN的设计范式，以实现机器人感知任务。我们证明，与串行堆叠的卷积层相反，使用平行分支将是机器人视觉抓握任务的更强大设计。特别是，为机器人感知任务（例如，高分辨率代表和轻量级设计）提供了神经网络设计的准则，这些指南应对不同操纵场景中的挑战做出回应。然后，我们开发了一种新颖的抓地视觉体系结构，称为HRG-NET，这是一种平行分支结构，始终保持高分辨率表示形式，并反复在分辨率上交换信息。广泛的实验验证了这两种设计可以有效地提高基于视觉的握把和加速网络训练的准确性。我们在YouTube上的真实物理环境中显示了一系列比较实验：https：//youtu.be/jhlsp-xzhfy。

这项工作提出了下一代人类机器人界面，只能通过视觉来推断和实现用户的操纵意图。具体而言，我们开发了一个集成了近眼跟踪和机器人操作的系统，以实现用户指定的操作（例如，抓取，拾取和位置等），在其中将视觉信息与人类的注意合并在一起，以创建为所需的映射机器人动作。为了实现视力指导的操纵，开发了一个头部安装的近眼跟踪设备，以实时跟踪眼球运动，以便可以确定用户的视觉注意力。为了提高抓地力性能，然后开发出基于变压器的GRASP模型。堆叠的变压器块用于提取层次特征，其中在每个阶段扩展了通道的体积，同时挤压了特征地图的分辨率。实验验证表明，眼球跟踪系统产生低的凝视估计误差，抓地力系统在多个握把数据集上产生有希望的结果。这项工作是基于凝视互动的辅助机器人的概念证明，该机器人具有巨大的希望，可以帮助老年人或上肢残疾在日常生活中。可在\ url {https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yuz1hukyurm}上获得演示视频。

机器翻译（MT）的单词级质量估计（QE）旨在在不参考的情况下找出翻译句子中的潜在翻译错误。通常，关于文字级别量化宽松的传统作品旨在根据文章编辑工作来预测翻译质量，其中通过比较MT句子之间的单词来自动生成单词标签（“ OK”和“ BAD”）。通过翻译错误率（TER）工具包编辑的句子。虽然可以使用后编辑的工作来在一定程度上测量翻译质量，但我们发现它通常与人类对单词是否良好或翻译不良的判断相抵触。为了克服限制，我们首先创建了一个金色基准数据集，即\ emph {hjqe}（人类对质量估计的判断），专家翻译直接注释了对其判断的不良翻译单词。此外，为了进一步利用平行语料库，我们提出了使用两个标签校正策略的自我监督的预训练，即标记改进策略和基于树的注释策略，以使基于TER的人工量化量子ceper更接近\ emph {HJQE}。我们根据公开可用的WMT en-de和en-ZH Corpora进行实质性实验。结果不仅表明我们提出的数据集与人类的判断更加一致，而且还确认了提议的标签纠正策略的有效性。 。}
