Depth completion is a popular research direction in the field of depth estimation. The fusion of color and depth features is the current critical challenge in this task, mainly due to the asymmetry between the rich scene details in color images and the sparse pixels in depth maps. To tackle this issue, we design an efficient Gated Cross-Attention Network that propagates confidence via a gating mechanism, simultaneously extracting and refining key information in both color and depth branches to achieve local spatial feature fusion. Additionally, we employ an attention network based on the Transformer in low-dimensional space to effectively fuse global features and increase the network's receptive field. With a simple yet efficient gating mechanism, our proposed method achieves fast and accurate depth completion without the need for additional branches or post-processing steps. At the same time, we use the Ray Tune mechanism with the AsyncHyperBandScheduler scheduler and the HyperOptSearch algorithm to automatically search for the optimal number of module iterations, which also allows us to achieve performance comparable to state-of-the-art methods. We conduct experiments on both indoor and outdoor scene datasets. Our fast network achieves Pareto-optimal solutions in terms of time and accuracy, and at the time of submission, our accurate network ranks first among all published papers on the KITTI official website in terms of accuracy.

The majority of existing few-shot learning methods describe image relations with binary labels. However, such binary relations are insufficient to teach the network complicated real-world relations, due to the lack of decision smoothness. Furthermore, current few-shot learning models capture only the similarity via relation labels, but they are not exposed to class concepts associated with objects, which is likely detrimental to the classification performance due to underutilization of the available class labels. To paraphrase, children learn the concept of tiger from a few of actual examples as well as from comparisons of tiger to other animals. Thus, we hypothesize that in fact both similarity and class concept learning must be occurring simultaneously. With these observations at hand, we study the fundamental problem of simplistic class modeling in current few-shot learning methods. We rethink the relations between class concepts, and propose a novel Absolute-relative Learning paradigm to fully take advantage of label information to refine the image representations and correct the relation understanding in both supervised and unsupervised scenarios. Our proposed paradigm improves the performance of several the state-of-the-art models on publicly available datasets., Comment: IEEE/CVF Conference on Computer Vision and Pattern Recognition 2021

Recently, the majority of visual trackers adopt Convolutional Neural Network (CNN) as their backbone to achieve high tracking accuracy. However, less attention has been paid to the potential adversarial threats brought by CNN, including Siamese network. In this paper, we first analyze the existing vulnerabilities in Siamese trackers and propose the requirements for a successful adversarial attack. On this basis, we formulate the adversarial generation problem and propose an end-to-end pipeline to generate a perturbed texture map for the 3D object that causes the trackers to fail. Finally, we conduct thorough experiments to verify the effectiveness of our algorithm. Experiment results show that adversarial examples generated by our algorithm can successfully lower the tracking accuracy of victim trackers and even make them drift off. To the best of our knowledge, this is the first work to generate 3D adversarial examples on visual trackers.
