Special Issue Information

Dear Colleagues,

This Special Issue seeks submissions that use 3D sensor technologies in combination with AI algorithms (e.g., deep learning) to solve problems in visual analysis. Sensor technologies of interest include RGBD sensors, LiDaR sensors and 2D image sensors from which 3D information is to be extracted (e.g., structure-from-motion (SfM)).

Potential submission topics include: deep learning architectures for 3D AI, neuromorphic architectures for 3D AI, 3D pose recognition, 3D trajectory estimation, 3D object recognition, 3D surface reconstruction, sensor data compression, 3D object completion, 3D from single images, 3D scene analysis, 3D datasets for AI, and explainable AI for 3D inference.

While this Special Issue places emphasis on deep learning methods, applications of deep learning systems and novel integrations of deep learning systems as system-level AI solutions for complex problems are also relevant.

RGB-D saliency detection aims to accurately localize salient regions using the complementary information of a depth map. Global contexts carried by the deep layer are key to salient objection detection, but they are diluted when transferred to shallower layers. Besides, depth maps may contain misleading information due to the depth sensors. To tackle these issues, in this paper, we propose a new cross-modal cross-scale network for RGB-D salient object detection, where the global context information provides global guidance to boost performance in complex scenarios. First, we introduce a global guided cross-modal and cross-scale module named G2CMCSM to realize global guided cross-modal cross-scale fusion. Then, we employ feature refinement modules for progressive refinement in a coarse-to-fine manner. In addition, we adopt a hybrid loss function to supervise the training of G2CMCSNet over different scales. With all these modules working together, G2CMCSNet effectively enhances both salient object details and salient object localization. Extensive experiments on challenging benchmark datasets demonstrate that our G2CMCSNet outperforms existing state-of-the-art methods. Full article

RGBD salient object detection, based on the convolutional neural network, has achieved rapid development in recent years. However, existing models often focus on detecting salient object edges, instead of objects. Importantly, detecting objects can more intuitively display the complete information of the detection target. To take care of this issue, we propose a RGBD salient object detection method, based on specific object imaging, which can quickly capture and process important information on object features, and effectively screen out the salient objects in the scene. The screened target objects include not only the edge of the object, but also the complete feature information of the object, which realizes the detection and imaging of the salient objects. We conduct experiments on benchmark datasets and validate with two common metrics, and the results show that our method reduces the error by 0.003 and 0.201 (MAE) on D3Net and JLDCF, respectively. In addition, our method can still achieve a very good detection and imaging performance in the case of the greatly reduced training data. Full article
