MesonGS++: Post-training Compression of 3D Gaussian Splatting with Hyperparameter Searching

3D Gaussian Splatting (3DGS) achieves high-quality novel view synthesis with real-time rendering, but its storage cost remains prohibitive for practical deployment. Existing post-training compression methods still rely on many coupled hyperparameters across pruning, transformation, quantization, and entropy coding, making it difficult to control the final compressed size and fully exploit the rate-distortion trade-off. We propose MesonGS++, a size-aware post-training codec for 3D Gaussian compression. On the codec side, MesonGS++ combines joint importance-based pruning, octree geometry coding, attribute transformation, selective vector quantization for higher-degree spherical harmonics, and group-wise mixed-precision quantization with entropy coding. On the configuration side, it treats the reserve ratio and bit-width allocation as the dominant rate-distortion knobs and jointly optimizes them under a target storage budget via discrete sampling and 0--1 integer linear programming. We further propose a linear size estimator and a CUDA parallel quantization operator to accelerate the hyperparameter searching process. Extensive experiments show that MesonGS++ achieves over 34$\times$ compression while preserving rendering fidelity, outperforming state-of-the-art post-training methods and accurately meeting target size budgets. Remarkably, without any training, MesonGS++ can even surpass the PSNR of vanilla 3DGS at a 20$\times$ compression rate on the Stump scene.

CMS-LSTM: Context Embedding and Multi-Scale Spatiotemporal Expression LSTM for Predictive Learning

Spatiotemporal predictive learning (ST-PL) is a hotspot with numerous applications, such as object movement and meteorological prediction. It aims at predicting the subsequent frames via observed sequences. However, inherent uncertainty among consecutive frames exacerbates the difficulty in long-term prediction. To tackle the increasing ambiguity during forecasting, we design CMS-LSTM to focus on context correlations and multi-scale spatiotemporal flow with details on fine-grained locals, containing two elaborate designed blocks: Context Embedding (CE) and Spatiotemporal Expression (SE) blocks. CE is designed for abundant context interactions, while SE focuses on multi-scale spatiotemporal expression in hidden states. The newly introduced blocks also facilitate other spatiotemporal models (e.g., PredRNN, SA-ConvLSTM) to produce representative implicit features for ST-PL and improve prediction quality. Qualitative and quantitative experiments demonstrate the effectiveness and flexibility of our proposed method. With fewer params, CMS-LSTM outperforms state-of-the-art methods in numbers of metrics on two representative benchmarks and scenarios. Code is available at https://github.com/czh-98/CMS-LSTM.

Cooperative Multi-Agent Reinforcement Learning with Hypergraph Convolution

Recent years have witnessed the great success of multi-agent systems (MAS). Value decomposition, which decomposes joint action values into individual action values, has been an important work in MAS. However, many value decomposition methods ignore the coordination among different agents, leading to the notorious "lazy agents" problem. To enhance the coordination in MAS, this paper proposes HyperGraph CoNvolution MIX (HGCN-MIX), a method that incorporates hypergraph convolution with value decomposition. HGCN-MIX models agents as well as their relationships as a hypergraph, where agents are nodes and hyperedges among nodes indicate that the corresponding agents can coordinate to achieve larger rewards. Then, it trains a hypergraph that can capture the collaborative relationships among agents. Leveraging the learned hypergraph to consider how other agents' observations and actions affect their decisions, the agents in a MAS can better coordinate. We evaluate HGCN-MIX in the StarCraft II multi-agent challenge benchmark. The experimental results demonstrate that HGCN-MIX can train joint policies that outperform or achieve a similar level of performance as the current state-of-the-art techniques. We also observe that HGCN-MIX has an even more significant improvement of performance in the scenarios with a large amount of agents. Besides, we conduct additional analysis to emphasize that when the hypergraph learns more relationships, HGCN-MIX can train stronger joint policies.

Improving the Latent Space of Image Style Transfer

Existing neural style transfer researches have studied to match statistical information between the deep features of content and style images, which were extracted by a pre-trained VGG, and achieved significant improvement in synthesizing artistic images. However, in some cases, the feature statistics from the pre-trained encoder may not be consistent with the visual style we perceived. For example, the style distance between images of different styles is less than that of the same style. In such an inappropriate latent space, the objective function of the existing methods will be optimized in the wrong direction, resulting in bad stylization results. In addition, the lack of content details in the features extracted by the pre-trained encoder also leads to the content leak problem. In order to solve these issues in the latent space used by style transfer, we propose two contrastive training schemes to get a refined encoder that is more suitable for this task. The style contrastive loss pulls the stylized result closer to the same visual style image and pushes it away from the content image. The content contrastive loss enables the encoder to retain more available details. We can directly add our training scheme to some existing style transfer methods and significantly improve their results. Extensive experimental results demonstrate the effectiveness and superiority of our methods.

PS-NeRV: Patch-wise Stylized Neural Representations for Videos

We study how to represent a video with implicit neural representations (INRs). Classical INRs methods generally utilize MLPs to map input coordinates to output pixels. While some recent works have tried to directly reconstruct the whole image with CNNs. However, we argue that both the above pixel-wise and image-wise strategies are not favorable to video data. Instead, we propose a patch-wise solution, PS-NeRV, which represents videos as a function of patches and the corresponding patch coordinate. It naturally inherits the advantages of image-wise methods, and achieves excellent reconstruction performance with fast decoding speed. The whole method includes conventional modules, like positional embedding, MLPs and CNNs, while also introduces AdaIN to enhance intermediate features. These simple yet essential changes could help the network easily fit high-frequency details. Extensive experiments have demonstrated its effectiveness in several video-related tasks, such as video compression and video inpainting.

Semantic-Sparse Colorization Network for Deep Exemplar-based Colorization

Exemplar-based colorization approaches rely on reference image to provide plausible colors for target gray-scale image. The key and difficulty of exemplar-based colorization is to establish an accurate correspondence between these two images. Previous approaches have attempted to construct such a correspondence but are faced with two obstacles. First, using luminance channels for the calculation of correspondence is inaccurate. Second, the dense correspondence they built introduces wrong matching results and increases the computation burden. To address these two problems, we propose Semantic-Sparse Colorization Network (SSCN) to transfer both the global image style and detailed semantic-related colors to the gray-scale image in a coarse-to-fine manner. Our network can perfectly balance the global and local colors while alleviating the ambiguous matching problem. Experiments show that our method outperforms existing methods in both quantitative and qualitative evaluation and achieves state-of-the-art performance.

3D-ANAS: 3D Asymmetric Neural Architecture Search for Fast Hyperspectral Image Classification

Hyperspectral images involve abundant spectral and spatial information, playing an irreplaceable role in land-cover classification. Recently, based on deep learning technologies, an increasing number of HSI classification approaches have been proposed, which demonstrate promising performance. However, previous studies suffer from two major drawbacks: 1) the architecture of most deep learning models is manually designed, relies on specialized knowledge, and is relatively tedious. Moreover, in HSI classifications, datasets captured by different sensors have different physical properties. Correspondingly, different models need to be designed for different datasets, which further increases the workload of designing architectures; 2) the mainstream framework is a patch-to-pixel framework. The overlap regions of patches of adjacent pixels are calculated repeatedly, which increases computational cost and time cost. Besides, the classification accuracy is sensitive to the patch size, which is artificially set based on extensive investigation experiments. To overcome the issues mentioned above, we firstly propose a 3D asymmetric neural network search algorithm and leverage it to automatically search for efficient architectures for HSI classifications. By analysing the characteristics of HSIs, we specifically build a 3D asymmetric decomposition search space, where spectral and spatial information are processed with different decomposition convolutions. Furthermore, we propose a new fast classification framework, i,e., pixel-to-pixel classification framework, which has no repetitive operations and reduces the overall cost. Experiments on three public HSI datasets captured by different sensors demonstrate the networks designed by our 3D-ANAS achieve competitive performance compared to several state-of-the-art methods, while having a much faster inference speed.

Hyperspectral Image Classification with Spatial Consistence Using Fully Convolutional Spatial Propagation Network

In recent years, deep convolutional neural networks (CNNs) have shown impressive ability to represent hyperspectral images (HSIs) and achieved encouraging results in HSI classification. However, the existing CNN-based models operate at the patch-level, in which pixel is separately classified into classes using a patch of images around it. This patch-level classification will lead to a large number of repeated calculations, and it is difficult to determine the appropriate patch size that is beneficial to classification accuracy. In addition, the conventional CNN models operate convolutions with local receptive fields, which cause failures in modeling contextual spatial information. To overcome the aforementioned limitations, we propose a novel end-to-end, pixels-to-pixels fully convolutional spatial propagation network (FCSPN) for HSI classification. Our FCSPN consists of a 3D fully convolution network (3D-FCN) and a convolutional spatial propagation network (CSPN). Specifically, the 3D-FCN is firstly introduced for reliable preliminary classification, in which a novel dual separable residual (DSR) unit is proposed to effectively capture spectral and spatial information simultaneously with fewer parameters. Moreover, the channel-wise attention mechanism is adapted in the 3D-FCN to grasp the most informative channels from redundant channel information. Finally, the CSPN is introduced to capture the spatial correlations of HSI via learning a local linear spatial propagation, which allows maintaining the HSI spatial consistency and further refining the classification results. Experimental results on three HSI benchmark datasets demonstrate that the proposed FCSPN achieves state-of-the-art performance on HSI classification.

Locality-Aware Rotated Ship Detection in High-Resolution Remote Sensing Imagery Based on Multi-Scale Convolutional Network

Ship detection has been an active and vital topic in the field of remote sensing for a decade, but it is still a challenging problem due to the large scale variations, the high aspect ratios, the intensive arrangement, and the background clutter disturbance. In this letter, we propose a locality-aware rotated ship detection (LARSD) framework based on a multi-scale convolutional neural network (CNN) to tackle these issues. The proposed framework applies a UNet-like multi-scale CNN to generate multi-scale feature maps with high-level semantic information in high resolution. Then, a rotated anchor-based regression is applied for directly predicting the probability, the edge distances, and the angle of ships. Finally, a locality-aware score alignment is proposed to fix the mismatch between classification results and location results caused by the independence of each subnet. Furthermore, to enlarge the datasets of ship detection, we build a new high-resolution ship detection (HRSD) dataset, where 2499 images and 9269 instances were collected from Google Earth with different resolutions. Experiments based on public dataset HRSC2016 and our HRSD dataset demonstrate that our detection method achieves state-of-the-art performance.

Multispectral Pan-sharpening via Dual-Channel Convolutional Network with Convolutional LSTM Based Hierarchical Spatial-Spectral Feature Fusion

Multispectral pan-sharpening aims at producing a high resolution (HR) multispectral (MS) image in both spatial and spectral domains by fusing a panchromatic (PAN) image and a corresponding MS image. In this paper, we propose a novel dual-channel network (DCNet) framework for MS pan-sharpening. In our DCNet, the dual-channel backbone involves a spatial channel to capture spatial information with a 2D CNN, and a spectral channel to extract spectral information with a 3D CNN. This heterogeneous 2D/3D CNN architecture can minimize causing spectral information distortion, which typically happens in conventional 2D CNN models. In order to fully integrate the spatial and spectral features captured from different levels, we introduce a multi-level fusion strategy. Specifically, a spatial-spectral CLSTM (S$^2$-CLSTM) module is proposed for fusing the hierarchical spatial and spectral features, which can effectively capture correlations among multi-level features. The S$^2$-CLSTM module attaches two fusion ways: the intra-level fusion via bi-directional lateral connections and inter-level fusion via the cell state in the S$^2$-CLSTM. Finally, the ideal HR-MS image is recovered by a reconstruction module. Extensive experiments have been conducted at both simulated lower scale and the original scale of real-world datasets. Compared with the state-of-the-art methods, the proposed DCNet achieves superior or competitive performance.
