SSGD: A smartphone screen glass dataset for defect detection

Interactive devices with touch screen have become commonly used in various aspects of daily life, which raises the demand for high production quality of touch screen glass. While it is desirable to develop effective defect detection technologies to optimize the automatic touch screen production lines, the development of these technologies suffers from the lack of publicly available datasets. To address this issue, we in this paper propose a dedicated touch screen glass defect dataset which includes seven types of defects and consists of 2504 images captured in various scenarios.All data are captured with professional acquisition equipment on the fixed workstation. Additionally, we benchmark the CNN- and Transformer-based object detection frameworks on the proposed dataset to demonstrate the challenges of defect detection on high-resolution images. Dataset and related code will be available at https://github.com/Yangr116/SSGDataset.

SemanticAC: Semantics-Assisted Framework for Audio Classification

In this paper, we propose SemanticAC, a semantics-assisted framework for Audio Classification to better leverage the semantic information. Unlike conventional audio classification methods that treat class labels as discrete vectors, we employ a language model to extract abundant semantics from labels and optimize the semantic consistency between audio signals and their labels. We verify that simple textual information from labels and advanced pretraining models enable more abundant semantic supervision for better performance. Specifically, we design a text encoder to capture the semantic information from the text extension of labels. Then we map the audio signals to align with the semantics of corresponding class labels via an audio encoder and a similarity calculation module so as to enforce the semantic consistency. Extensive experiments on two audio datasets, ESC-50 and US8K demonstrate that our proposed method consistently outperforms the compared audio classification methods.

Adversarial Alignment for Source Free Object Detection

Source-free object detection (SFOD) aims to transfer a detector pre-trained on a label-rich source domain to an unlabeled target domain without seeing source data. While most existing SFOD methods generate pseudo labels via a source-pretrained model to guide training, these pseudo labels usually contain high noises due to heavy domain discrepancy. In order to obtain better pseudo supervisions, we divide the target domain into source-similar and source-dissimilar parts and align them in the feature space by adversarial learning. Specifically, we design a detection variance-based criterion to divide the target domain. This criterion is motivated by a finding that larger detection variances denote higher recall and larger similarity to the source domain. Then we incorporate an adversarial module into a mean teacher framework to drive the feature spaces of these two subsets indistinguishable. Extensive experiments on multiple cross-domain object detection datasets demonstrate that our proposed method consistently outperforms the compared SFOD methods.

Finding Quasars behind the Galactic Plane. I. Candidate Selections with Transfer Learning

Quasars behind the Galactic plane (GPQs) are important astrometric references and useful probes of Milky Way gas. However, the search for GPQs is difficult due to large extinctions and high source densities in the Galactic plane. Existing selection methods for quasars developed using high Galactic latitude (high-$b$) data cannot be applied to the Galactic plane directly because the photometric data obtained from high-$b$ regions and the Galactic plane follow different probability distributions. To alleviate this dataset shift problem for quasar candidate selection, we adopt a Transfer Learning Framework at both data and algorithm levels. At the data level, to make a training set in which dataset shift is modeled, we synthesize quasars and galaxies behind the Galactic plane based on SDSS sources and Galactic dust map. At the algorithm level, to reduce the effect of class imbalance, we transform the three-class classification problem for stars, galaxies, and quasars to two binary classification tasks. We apply XGBoost algorithm on Pan-STARRS1 (PS1) and AllWISE photometry for classification, and additional cut on Gaia proper motion to remove stellar contaminants. We obtain a reliable GPQ candidate catalog with 160,946 sources located at $|b|\leq 20^{\circ}$ in PS1-AllWISE footprint. Photometric redshifts of GPQ candidates achieved with XGBoost regression algorithm show that our selection method can identify quasars in a wide redshift range ($0<z\lesssim5$). This study extends the systematic searches for quasars to the dense stellar fields and shows the feasibility of using astronomical knowledge to improve data mining under complex conditions in the Big Data era.
