Retrieving 3D shapes based on 2D images is a challenging research topic, due to the significant gap between different domains. Recently, various approaches have been proposed to handle this problem. However, the majority of methods target the cross-domain retrieval task as a pure domain adaptation problem, which focuses on the alignment but ignores the visual relevance between the 2D images and their corresponding 3D shapes. To fundamentally decrease the divergence between different domains, we propose a novel cross-domain learning network (CLN) for 2D image-based 3D shape retrieval task. First, we estimate the pose information from the 2D image to guide the view rendering of 3D shapes, which increases the visual correlations of the cross-domain data to eliminate the divergence between them. Second, we introduce a novel joint learning network, considering both the domain-specific characteristics and the cross-domain interactions for data alignment, which further compensates for the gap between different domains by controlling the distance of intra- and inter-classes. After the metric learning process, discriminative descriptors of images and shapes are generated for the cross-domain retrieval task. To prove the effectiveness and robustness of the proposed method, we conduct extensive experiments on the MI3DOR, SHREC’13, and SHREC’14 datasets. The experimental results demonstrate the superiority of our proposed method, and significant improvements have been achieved compared with state-of-the-art methods. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

With the development of video and image processing technology, the field of video tampering forensics is facing enormous challenges. Specifically, as the fundamental basis of judicial forensics, passive forensics for object removal video forgery is particularly essential. To extract tampering traces in video more sufficiently, the author proposed a spatiotemporal trident network based on the spatial rich model (SRM) and 3D convolution (C3D), which provides three branches and can theoretically improve the detection and localization accuracy of tampered regions. Based on the spatiotemporal trident network, a temporal detector and a spatial locator were designed to detect and locate the tampered regions in the temporal and spatial domains of videos. For the temporal detector, 3D CNNs were employed in three branches as the encoders and a bidirectional long short-term memory (BiLSTM) as the decoder. For the spatial locator, a backbone network named C3D-ResNet12 was designed as the encoder of the three branches, and the region proposal networks (RPNs) were employed as the decoders in three branches. In addition, we optimized the loss functions of the above two algorithms based on focal loss and GIoU loss. The experimental results revealed the effectiveness of spatiotemporal detection and localization algorithms: for temporal forgery detection, the accuracy of the frame classification increased to 99+%; for spatial forgery localization, the successful localization rate of the tampered regions in forged frames reached 96+%, and the mean intersection over union of the located tampered regions and the real tampered regions reached 62+%.
