FastForensics: Efficient Two-Stream Design for Real-Time Image Manipulation Detection

With the rise in popularity of portable devices, the spread of falsified media on social platforms has become rampant. This necessitates the timely identification of authentic content. However, most advanced detection methods are computationally heavy, hindering their real-time application. In this paper, we describe an efficient two-stream architecture for real-time image manipulation detection. Our method consists of two-stream branches targeting the cognitive and inspective perspectives. In the cognitive branch, we propose efficient wavelet-guided Transformer blocks to capture the global manipulation traces related to frequency. This block contains an interactive wavelet-guided self-attention module that integrates wavelet transformation with efficient attention design, interacting with the knowledge from the inspective branch. The inspective branch consists of simple convolutions that capture fine-grained traces and interact bidirectionally with Transformer blocks to provide mutual support. Our method is lightweight ($\sim$ 8M) but achieves competitive performance compared to many other counterparts, demonstrating its efficacy in image manipulation detection and its potential for portable integration.

ZipGait: Bridging Skeleton and Silhouette with Diffusion Model for Advancing Gait Recognition

Current gait recognition research predominantly focuses on extracting appearance features effectively, but the performance is severely compromised by the vulnerability of silhouettes under unconstrained scenes. Consequently, numerous studies have explored how to harness information from various models, particularly by sufficiently utilizing the intrinsic information of skeleton sequences. While these model-based methods have achieved significant performance, there is still a huge gap compared to appearance-based methods, which implies the potential value of bridging silhouettes and skeletons. In this work, we make the first attempt to reconstruct dense body shapes from discrete skeleton distributions via the diffusion model, demonstrating a new approach that connects cross-modal features rather than focusing solely on intrinsic features to improve model-based methods. To realize this idea, we propose a novel gait diffusion model named DiffGait, which has been designed with four specific adaptations suitable for gait recognition. Furthermore, to effectively utilize the reconstructed silhouettes and skeletons, we introduce Perception Gait Integration (PGI) to integrate different gait features through a two-stage process. Incorporating those modifications leads to an efficient model-based gait recognition framework called ZipGait. Through extensive experiments on four public benchmarks, ZipGait demonstrates superior performance, outperforming the state-of-the-art methods by a large margin under both cross-domain and intra-domain settings, while achieving significant plug-and-play performance improvements.

Hierarchical Attention and Parallel Filter Fusion Network for Multi-Source Data Classification

Hyperspectral image (HSI) and synthetic aperture radar (SAR) data joint classification is a crucial and yet challenging task in the field of remote sensing image interpretation. However, feature modeling in existing methods is deficient to exploit the abundant global, spectral, and local features simultaneously, leading to sub-optimal classification performance. To solve the problem, we propose a hierarchical attention and parallel filter fusion network for multi-source data classification. Concretely, we design a hierarchical attention module for hyperspectral feature extraction. This module integrates global, spectral, and local features simultaneously to provide more comprehensive feature representation. In addition, we develop parallel filter fusion module which enhances cross-modal feature interactions among different spatial locations in the frequency domain. Extensive experiments on two multi-source remote sensing data classification datasets verify the superiority of our proposed method over current state-of-the-art classification approaches. Specifically, our proposed method achieves 91.44% and 80.51% of overall accuracy (OA) on the respective datasets, highlighting its superior performance.

DomainForensics: Exposing Face Forgery across Domains via Bi-directional Adaptation

Recent DeepFake detection methods have shown excellent performance on public datasets but are significantly degraded on new forgeries. Solving this problem is important, as new forgeries emerge daily with the continuously evolving generative techniques. Many efforts have been made for this issue by seeking the commonly existing traces empirically on data level. In this paper, we rethink this problem and propose a new solution from the unsupervised domain adaptation perspective. Our solution, called DomainForensics, aims to transfer the forgery knowledge from known forgeries to new forgeries. Unlike recent efforts, our solution does not focus on data view but on learning strategies of DeepFake detectors to capture the knowledge of new forgeries through the alignment of domain discrepancies. In particular, unlike the general domain adaptation methods which consider the knowledge transfer in the semantic class category, thus having limited application, our approach captures the subtle forgery traces. We describe a new bi-directional adaptation strategy dedicated to capturing the forgery knowledge across domains. Specifically, our strategy considers both forward and backward adaptation, to transfer the forgery knowledge from the source domain to the target domain in forward adaptation and then reverse the adaptation from the target domain to the source domain in backward adaptation. In forward adaptation, we perform supervised training for the DeepFake detector in the source domain and jointly employ adversarial feature adaptation to transfer the ability to detect manipulated faces from known forgeries to new forgeries. In backward adaptation, we further improve the knowledge transfer by coupling adversarial adaptation with self-distillation on new forgeries. This enables the detector to expose new forgery features from unlabeled data and avoid forgetting the known knowledge of known...

D$^4$-VTON: Dynamic Semantics Disentangling for Differential Diffusion based Virtual Try-On

In this paper, we introduce D$^4$-VTON, an innovative solution for image-based virtual try-on. We address challenges from previous studies, such as semantic inconsistencies before and after garment warping, and reliance on static, annotation-driven clothing parsers. Additionally, we tackle the complexities in diffusion-based VTON models when handling simultaneous tasks like inpainting and denoising. Our approach utilizes two key technologies: Firstly, Dynamic Semantics Disentangling Modules (DSDMs) extract abstract semantic information from garments to create distinct local flows, improving precise garment warping in a self-discovered manner. Secondly, by integrating a Differential Information Tracking Path (DITP), we establish a novel diffusion-based VTON paradigm. This path captures differential information between incomplete try-on inputs and their complete versions, enabling the network to handle multiple degradations independently, thereby minimizing learning ambiguities and achieving realistic results with minimal overhead. Extensive experiments demonstrate that D$^4$-VTON significantly outperforms existing methods in both quantitative metrics and qualitative evaluations, demonstrating its capability in generating realistic images and ensuring semantic consistency.

GaitMA: Pose-guided Multi-modal Feature Fusion for Gait Recognition

Gait recognition is a biometric technology that recognizes the identity of humans through their walking patterns. Existing appearance-based methods utilize CNN or Transformer to extract spatial and temporal features from silhouettes, while model-based methods employ GCN to focus on the special topological structure of skeleton points. However, the quality of silhouettes is limited by complex occlusions, and skeletons lack dense semantic features of the human body. To tackle these problems, we propose a novel gait recognition framework, dubbed Gait Multi-model Aggregation Network (GaitMA), which effectively combines two modalities to obtain a more robust and comprehensive gait representation for recognition. First, skeletons are represented by joint/limb-based heatmaps, and features from silhouettes and skeletons are respectively extracted using two CNN-based feature extractors. Second, a co-attention alignment module is proposed to align the features by element-wise attention. Finally, we propose a mutual learning module, which achieves feature fusion through cross-attention, Wasserstein loss is further introduced to ensure the effective fusion of two modalities. Extensive experimental results demonstrate the superiority of our model on Gait3D, OU-MVLP, and CASIA-B.

Wavelet-based Bi-dimensional Aggregation Network for SAR Image Change Detection

Synthetic aperture radar (SAR) image change detection is critical in remote sensing image analysis. Recently, the attention mechanism has been widely used in change detection tasks. However, existing attention mechanisms often employ down-sampling operations such as average pooling on the Key and Value components to enhance computational efficiency. These irreversible operations result in the loss of high-frequency components and other important information. To address this limitation, we develop Wavelet-based Bi-dimensional Aggregation Network (WBANet) for SAR image change detection. We design a wavelet-based self-attention block that includes discrete wavelet transform and inverse discrete wavelet transform operations on Key and Value components. Hence, the feature undergoes downsampling without any loss of information, while simultaneously enhancing local contextual awareness through an expanded receptive field. Additionally, we have incorporated a bi-dimensional aggregation module that boosts the non-linear representation capability by merging spatial and channel information via broadcast mechanism. Experimental results on three SAR datasets demonstrate that our WBANet significantly outperforms contemporary state-of-the-art methods. Specifically, our WBANet achieves 98.33\%, 96.65\%, and 96.62\% of percentage of correct classification (PCC) on the respective datasets, highlighting its superior performance.

Exploring Cross-Domain Few-Shot Classification via Frequency-Aware Prompting

Cross-Domain Few-Shot Learning has witnessed great stride with the development of meta-learning. However, most existing methods pay more attention to learning domain-adaptive inductive bias (meta-knowledge) through feature-wise manipulation or task diversity improvement while neglecting the phenomenon that deep networks tend to rely more on high-frequency cues to make the classification decision, which thus degenerates the robustness of learned inductive bias since high-frequency information is vulnerable and easy to be disturbed by noisy information. Hence in this paper, we make one of the first attempts to propose a Frequency-Aware Prompting method with mutual attention for Cross-Domain Few-Shot classification, which can let networks simulate the human visual perception of selecting different frequency cues when facing new recognition tasks. Specifically, a frequency-aware prompting mechanism is first proposed, in which high-frequency components of the decomposed source image are switched either with normal distribution sampling or zeroing to get frequency-aware augment samples. Then, a mutual attention module is designed to learn generalizable inductive bias under CD-FSL settings. More importantly, the proposed method is a plug-and-play module that can be directly applied to most off-the-shelf CD-FLS methods. Experimental results on CD-FSL benchmarks demonstrate the effectiveness of our proposed method as well as robustly improve the performance of existing CD-FLS methods.

Boosting Spatial-Spectral Masked Auto-Encoder Through Mining Redundant Spectra for HSI-SAR/LiDAR Classification

Although recent masked image modeling (MIM)-based HSI-LiDAR/SAR classification methods have gradually recognized the importance of the spectral information, they have not adequately addressed the redundancy among different spectra, resulting in information leakage during the pretraining stage. This issue directly impairs the representation ability of the model. To tackle the problem, we propose a new strategy, named Mining Redundant Spectra (MRS). Unlike randomly masking spectral bands, MRS selectively masks them by similarity to increase the reconstruction difficulty. Specifically, a random spectral band is chosen during pretraining, and the selected and highly similar bands are masked. Experimental results demonstrate that employing the MRS strategy during the pretraining stage effectively improves the accuracy of existing MIM-based methods on the Berlin and Houston 2018 datasets.

Arctic Sea Ice Image Super-Resolution Based on Multi-Scale Convolution and Dual-Gating Mechanism

Arctic Sea Ice Concentration (SIC) is the ratio of ice-covered area to the total sea area of the Arctic Ocean, which is a key indicator for maritime activities. Nowadays, we often use passive microwave images to display SIC, but it has low spatial resolution, and most of the existing super-resolution methods of Arctic SIC don't take the integration of spatial and channel features into account and can't effectively integrate the multi-scale feature. To overcome the aforementioned issues, we propose MFM-Net for Arctic SIC super-resolution, which concurrently aggregates multi-scale information while integrating spatial and channel features. Extensive experiments on Arctic SIC dataset from the AMSR-E/AMSR-2 SIC DT-ASI products from Ocean University of China validate the effectiveness of porposed MFM-Net.

High-order Neighborhoods Know More: HyperGraph Learning Meets Source-free Unsupervised Domain Adaptation

Source-free Unsupervised Domain Adaptation (SFDA) aims to classify target samples by only accessing a pre-trained source model and unlabelled target samples. Since no source data is available, transferring the knowledge from the source domain to the target domain is challenging. Existing methods normally exploit the pair-wise relation among target samples and attempt to discover their correlations by clustering these samples based on semantic features. The drawback of these methods includes: 1) the pair-wise relation is limited to exposing the underlying correlations of two more samples, hindering the exploration of the structural information embedded in the target domain; 2) the clustering process only relies on the semantic feature, while overlooking the critical effect of domain shift, i.e., the distribution differences between the source and target domains. To address these issues, we propose a new SFDA method that exploits the high-order neighborhood relation and explicitly takes the domain shift effect into account. Specifically, we formulate the SFDA as a Hypergraph learning problem and construct hyperedges to explore the local group and context information among multiple samples. Moreover, we integrate a self-loop strategy into the constructed hypergraph to elegantly introduce the domain uncertainty of each sample. By clustering these samples based on hyperedges, both the semantic feature and domain shift effects are considered. We then describe an adaptive relation-based objective to tune the model with soft attention levels for all samples. Extensive experiments are conducted on Office-31, Office-Home, VisDA, and PointDA-10 datasets. The results demonstrate the superiority of our method over state-of-the-art counterparts.

ForensicsForest Family: A Series of Multi-scale Hierarchical Cascade Forests for Detecting GAN-generated Faces

The prominent progress in generative models has significantly improved the reality of generated faces, bringing serious concerns to society. Since recent GAN-generated faces are in high realism, the forgery traces have become more imperceptible, increasing the forensics challenge. To combat GAN-generated faces, many countermeasures based on Convolutional Neural Networks (CNNs) have been spawned due to their strong learning ability. In this paper, we rethink this problem and explore a new approach based on forest models instead of CNNs. Specifically, we describe a simple and effective forest-based method set called {\em ForensicsForest Family} to detect GAN-generate faces. The proposed ForensicsForest family is composed of three variants, which are {\em ForensicsForest}, {\em Hybrid ForensicsForest} and {\em Divide-and-Conquer ForensicsForest} respectively. ForenscisForest is a newly proposed Multi-scale Hierarchical Cascade Forest, which takes semantic, frequency and biology features as input, hierarchically cascades different levels of features for authenticity prediction, and then employs a multi-scale ensemble scheme that can comprehensively consider different levels of information to improve the performance further. Based on ForensicsForest, we develop Hybrid ForensicsForest, an extended version that integrates the CNN layers into models, to further refine the effectiveness of augmented features. Moreover, to reduce the memory cost in training, we propose Divide-and-Conquer ForensicsForest, which can construct a forest model using only a portion of training samplings. In the training stage, we train several candidate forest models using the subsets of training samples. Then a ForensicsForest is assembled by picking the suitable components from these candidate forest models...

RMAFF-PSN: A Residual Multi-Scale Attention Feature Fusion Photometric Stereo Network

Predicting accurate normal maps of objects from two-dimensional images in regions of complex structure and spatial material variations is challenging using photometric stereo methods due to the influence of surface reflection properties caused by variations in object geometry and surface materials. To address this issue, we propose a photometric stereo network called a RMAFF-PSN that uses residual multiscale attentional feature fusion to handle the ``difficult'' regions of the object. Unlike previous approaches that only use stacked convolutional layers to extract deep features from the input image, our method integrates feature information from different resolution stages and scales of the image. This approach preserves more physical information, such as texture and geometry of the object in complex regions, through shallow-deep stage feature extraction, double branching enhancement, and attention optimization. To test the network structure under real-world conditions, we propose a new real dataset called Simple PS data, which contains multiple objects with varying structures and materials. Experimental results on a publicly available benchmark dataset demonstrate that our method outperforms most existing calibrated photometric stereo methods for the same number of input images, especially in the case of highly non-convex object structures. Our method also obtains good results under sparse lighting conditions.

Hybrid Convolutional and Attention Network for Hyperspectral Image Denoising

Hyperspectral image (HSI) denoising is critical for the effective analysis and interpretation of hyperspectral data. However, simultaneously modeling global and local features is rarely explored to enhance HSI denoising. In this letter, we propose a hybrid convolution and attention network (HCANet), which leverages both the strengths of convolution neural networks (CNNs) and Transformers. To enhance the modeling of both global and local features, we have devised a convolution and attention fusion module aimed at capturing long-range dependencies and neighborhood spectral correlations. Furthermore, to improve multi-scale information aggregation, we design a multi-scale feed-forward network to enhance denoising performance by extracting features at different scales. Experimental results on mainstream HSI datasets demonstrate the rationality and effectiveness of the proposed HCANet. The proposed model is effective in removing various types of complex noise.

Deep Learning Methods for Calibrated Photometric Stereo and Beyond

Photometric stereo recovers the surface normals of an object from multiple images with varying shading cues, i.e., modeling the relationship between surface orientation and intensity at each pixel. Photometric stereo prevails in superior per-pixel resolution and fine reconstruction details. However, it is a complicated problem because of the non-linear relationship caused by non-Lambertian surface reflectance. Recently, various deep learning methods have shown a powerful ability in the context of photometric stereo against non-Lambertian surfaces. This paper provides a comprehensive review of existing deep learning-based calibrated photometric stereo methods. We first analyze these methods from different perspectives, including input processing, supervision, and network architecture. We summarize the performance of deep learning photometric stereo models on the most widely-used benchmark data set. This demonstrates the advanced performance of deep learning-based photometric stereo methods. Finally, we give suggestions and propose future research trends based on the limitations of existing models.

Trajectory-User Linking via Hierarchical Spatio-Temporal Attention Networks

Trajectory-User Linking (TUL) is crucial for human mobility modeling by linking diferent trajectories to users with the exploration of complex mobility patterns. Existing works mainly rely on the recurrent neural framework to encode the temporal dependencies in trajectories, have fall short in capturing spatial-temporal global context for TUL prediction. To ill this gap, this work presents a new hierarchical spatio-temporal attention neural network, called AttnTUL, to jointly encode the local trajectory transitional patterns and global spatial dependencies for TUL. Speciically, our irst model component is built over the graph neural architecture to preserve the local and global context and enhance the representation paradigm of geographical regions and user trajectories. Additionally, a hierarchically structured attention network is designed to simultaneously encode the intra-trajectory and inter-trajectory dependencies, with the integration of the temporal attention mechanism and global elastic attentional encoder. Extensive experiments demonstrate the superiority of our AttnTUL method as compared to state-of-the-art baselines on various trajectory datasets. The source code of our model is available at https://github.com/Onedean/AttnTUL.

A Deep-learning Real-time Bias Correction Method for Significant Wave Height Forecasts in the Western North Pacific

Significant wave height is one of the most important parameters characterizing ocean waves, and accurate numerical ocean wave forecasting is crucial for coastal protection and shipping. However, due to the randomness and nonlinearity of the wind fields that generate ocean waves and the complex interaction between wave and wind fields, current forecasts of numerical ocean waves have biases. In this study, a spatiotemporal deep-learning method was employed to correct gridded SWH forecasts from the ECMWF-IFS. This method was built on the trajectory gated recurrent unit deep neural network,and it conducts real-time rolling correction for the 0-240h SWH forecasts from ECMWF-IFS. The correction model is co-driven by wave and wind fields, providing better results than those based on wave fields alone. A novel pixel-switch loss function was developed. The pixel-switch loss function can dynamically fine-tune the pre-trained correction model, focusing on pixels with large biases in SWH forecasts. According to the seasonal characteristics of SWH, four correction models were constructed separately, for spring, summer, autumn, and winter. The experimental results show that, compared with the original ECMWF SWH predictions, the correction was most effective in spring, when the mean absolute error decreased by 12.972~46.237%. Although winter had the worst performance, the mean absolute error decreased by 13.794~38.953%. The corrected results improved the original ECMWF SWH forecasts under both normal and extreme weather conditions, indicating that our SWH correction model is robust and generalizable.

SS-MAE: Spatial-Spectral Masked Auto-Encoder for Multi-Source Remote Sensing Image Classification

Masked image modeling (MIM) is a highly popular and effective self-supervised learning method for image understanding. Existing MIM-based methods mostly focus on spatial feature modeling, neglecting spectral feature modeling. Meanwhile, existing MIM-based methods use Transformer for feature extraction, some local or high-frequency information may get lost. To this end, we propose a spatial-spectral masked auto-encoder (SS-MAE) for HSI and LiDAR/SAR data joint classification. Specifically, SS-MAE consists of a spatial-wise branch and a spectral-wise branch. The spatial-wise branch masks random patches and reconstructs missing pixels, while the spectral-wise branch masks random spectral channels and reconstructs missing channels. Our SS-MAE fully exploits the spatial and spectral representations of the input data. Furthermore, to complement local features in the training stage, we add two lightweight CNNs for feature extraction. Both global and local features are taken into account for feature modeling. To demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed SS-MAE, we conduct extensive experiments on three publicly available datasets. Extensive experiments on three multi-source datasets verify the superiority of our SS-MAE compared with several state-of-the-art baselines. The source codes are available at \url{https://github.com/summitgao/SS-MAE}.
