AlbumFill: Album-Guided Reasoning and Retrieval for Personalized Image Completion

Personalized image completion aims to restore occluded regions in personal photos while preserving identity and appearance. Existing methods either rely on generic inpainting models that often fail to maintain identity consistency, or assume that suitable reference images are explicitly provided. In practice, suitable references are often not explicitly provided, requiring the system to search for identity-consistent images within personal photo collections. We present AlbumFill, a training-free framework that retrieves identity-consistent references from personal albums for personalized completion. Given an occluded image and a personal album, a vision-language model infers missing semantic cues to guide composed image retrieval, and the retrieved references are used by reference-based completion models. To facilitate this task, we introduce a dataset containing 54K human-centric samples with associated album images. Experiments across multiple baselines demonstrate the difficulty of personalized completion and highlight the importance of identity-consistent reference retrieval.

Searching for Efficient Architecture for Instrument Segmentation in Robotic Surgery

Segmentation of surgical instruments is an important problem in robot-assisted surgery: it is a crucial step towards full instrument pose estimation and is directly used for masking of augmented reality overlays during surgical procedures. Most applications rely on accurate real-time segmentation of high-resolution surgical images. While previous research focused primarily on methods that deliver high accuracy segmentation masks, majority of them can not be used for real-time applications due to their computational cost. In this work, we design a light-weight and highly-efficient deep residual architecture which is tuned to perform real-time inference of high-resolution images. To account for reduced accuracy of the discovered light-weight deep residual network and avoid adding any additional computational burden, we perform a differentiable search over dilation rates for residual units of our network. We test our discovered architecture on the EndoVis 2017 Robotic Instruments dataset and verify that our model is the state-of-the-art in terms of speed and accuracy tradeoff with a speed of up to 125 FPS on high resolution images.

Towards Unsupervised Learning for Instrument Segmentation in Robotic Surgery with Cycle-Consistent Adversarial Networks

Surgical tool segmentation in endoscopic images is an important problem: it is a crucial step towards full instrument pose estimation and it is used for integration of pre- and intra-operative images into the endoscopic view. While many recent approaches based on convolutional neural networks have shown great results, a key barrier to progress lies in the acquisition of a large number of manually-annotated images which is necessary for an algorithm to generalize and work well in diverse surgical scenarios. Unlike the surgical image data itself, annotations are difficult to acquire and may be of variable quality. On the other hand, synthetic annotations can be automatically generated by using forward kinematic model of the robot and CAD models of tools by projecting them onto an image plane. Unfortunately, this model is very inaccurate and cannot be used for supervised learning of image segmentation models. Since generated annotations will not directly correspond to endoscopic images due to errors, we formulate the problem as an unpaired image-to-image translation where the goal is to learn the mapping between an input endoscopic image and a corresponding annotation using an adversarial model. Our approach allows to train image segmentation models without the need to acquire expensive annotations and can potentially exploit large unlabeled endoscopic image collection outside the annotated distributions of image/annotation data. We test our proposed method on Endovis 2017 challenge dataset and show that it is competitive with supervised segmentation methods.
