An Open-World Extension to Knowledge Graph Completion Models

1 code implementation19 Jun 2019 Haseeb Shah, Johannes Villmow, Adrian Ulges, Ulrich Schwanecke, Faisal Shafait

We present a novel extension to embedding-based knowledge graph completion models which enables them to perform open-world link prediction, i. e. to predict facts for entities unseen in training based on their textual description.

We propose the construction of a prototype scanner designed to capture multispectral images of documents.

Revisiting Distillation and Incremental Classifier Learning

2 code implementations8 Jul 2018 Khurram Javed, Faisal Shafait

To this end, we first thoroughly analyze the current state of the art (iCaRL) method for incremental learning and demonstrate that the good performance of the system is not because of the reasons presented in the existing literature.

Incremental Learning Knowledge Distillation

Distillation Techniques for Pseudo-rehearsal Based Incremental Learning

1 code implementation8 Jul 2018 Haseeb Shah, Khurram Javed, Faisal Shafait

We discuss the biases in current Generative Adversarial Networks (GAN) based approaches that learn the classifier by knowledge distillation from previously trained classifiers.

From countless experiments of the past it became widely accepted that the value of k has a significant impact on the performance of this method.

Shape-Based Automatic Detection of a Large Number of 3D Facial Landmarks

no code implementations CVPR 2015 Syed Zulqarnain Gilani, Faisal Shafait, Ajmal Mian

Our approach does not use texture and is completely shape based in order to detect landmarks that are morphologically significant.

Bayesian Sparse Representation for Hyperspectral Image Super Resolution

no code implementations CVPR 2015 Naveed Akhtar, Faisal Shafait, Ajmal Mian

We propose a hyperspectral image super resolution approach that fuses a high resolution image with the low resolution hyperspectral image using non-parametric Bayesian sparse representation.
