SegMix: Co-occurrence Driven Mixup for Semantic Segmentation and Adversarial Robustness

no code implementations23 Aug 2021 Md Amirul Islam, Matthew Kowal, Konstantinos G. Derpanis, Neil D. B. Bruce

The premise is based on the notion of feature binding, which is defined as the process by which activations spread across space and layers in the network are successfully integrated to arrive at a correct inference decision.

Global Pooling, More than Meets the Eye: Position Information is Encoded Channel-Wise in CNNs

1 code implementation ICCV 2021 Md Amirul Islam, Matthew Kowal, Sen Jia, Konstantinos G. Derpanis, Neil D. B. Bruce

In this paper, we challenge the common assumption that collapsing the spatial dimensions of a 3D (spatial-channel) tensor in a convolutional neural network (CNN) into a vector via global pooling removes all spatial information.

Fibro-CoSANet: Pulmonary Fibrosis Prognosis Prediction using a Convolutional Self Attention Network

1 code implementation13 Apr 2021 Zabir Al Nazi, Fazla Rabbi Mashrur, Md Amirul Islam, Shumit Saha

Although lung function decline is assessed by the forced vital capacity (FVC), determining the accurate progression of IPF remains a challenge.

Shape or Texture: Understanding Discriminative Features in CNNs

no code implementations27 Jan 2021 Md Amirul Islam, Matthew Kowal, Patrick Esser, Sen Jia, Bjorn Ommer, Konstantinos G. Derpanis, Neil Bruce

Contrasting the previous evidence that neurons in the later layers of a Convolutional Neural Network (CNN) respond to complex object shapes, recent studies have shown that CNNs actually exhibit a `texture bias': given an image with both texture and shape cues (e. g., a stylized image), a CNN is biased towards predicting the category corresponding to the texture.

Shape or Texture: Disentangling Discriminative Features in CNNs

Boundary Effects in CNNs: Feature or Bug?

no code implementations1 Jan 2021 Md Amirul Islam, Matthew Kowal, Sen Jia, Konstantinos G. Derpanis, Neil Bruce

Finally, we demonstrate the implications of these findings on a number of real-world tasks to show that position information can act as a feature or a bug.

Bidirectional Attention Network for Monocular Depth Estimation

1 code implementation1 Sep 2020 Shubhra Aich, Jean Marie Uwabeza Vianney, Md Amirul Islam, Mannat Kaur, Bingbing Liu

In this paper, we propose a Bidirectional Attention Network (BANet), an end-to-end framework for monocular depth estimation (MDE) that addresses the limitation of effectively integrating local and global information in convolutional neural networks.

Feature Binding with Category-Dependant MixUp for Semantic Segmentation and Adversarial Robustness

no code implementations13 Aug 2020 Md Amirul Islam, Matthew Kowal, Konstantinos G. Derpanis, Neil D. B. Bruce

In this paper, we present a strategy for training convolutional neural networks to effectively resolve interference arising from competing hypotheses relating to inter-categorical information throughout the network.

How Much Position Information Do Convolutional Neural Networks Encode?

1 code implementation ICLR 2020 Md Amirul Islam, Sen Jia, Neil D. B. Bruce

In contrast to fully connected networks, Convolutional Neural Networks (CNNs) achieve efficiency by learning weights associated with local filters with a finite spatial extent.

Semantics Meet Saliency: Exploring Domain Affinity and Models for Dual-Task Prediction

no code implementations25 Jul 2018 Md Amirul Islam, Mahmoud Kalash, Neil D. B. Bruce

With that said, there is an apparent relationship between these two problem domains in that the composition of a scene and associated semantic categories is certain to play into what is deemed salient.
