Deep learning-based image inpainting algorithms have shown great performance via powerful learned prior from the numerous external natural images. However, they show unpleasant results on the test image whose distribution is far from the that of training images because their models are biased toward the training images. In this paper, we propose a simple image inpainting algorithm with test-time adaptation named AdaFill. Given a single out-of-distributed test image, our goal is to complete hole region more naturally than the pre-trained inpainting models. To achieve this goal, we treat remained valid regions of the test image as another training cues because natural images have strong internal similarities. From this test-time adaptation, our network can exploit externally learned image priors from the pre-trained features as well as the internal prior of the test image explicitly. Experimental results show that AdaFill outperforms other models on the various out-of-distribution test images. Furthermore, the model named ZeroFill, that are not pre-trained also sometimes outperforms the pre-trained models.
Area of image inpainting over relatively large missing regions recently advanced substantially through adaptation of dedicated deep neural networks. However, current network solutions still introduce undesired artifacts and noise to the repaired regions. We present an image inpainting method that is based on the celebrated generative adversarial network (GAN) framework. The proposed PGGAN method includes a discriminator network that combines a global GAN (G-GAN) architecture with a patchGAN approach. PGGAN first shares network layers between G-GAN and patchGAN, then splits paths to produce two…

Image Inpainting is a task that aims to fill in missing regions of corrupted images with plausible contents. Recent inpainting methods have introduced perceptual and style losses as auxiliary losses to guide the learning of inpainting generators. Perceptual and style losses help improve the perceptual quality of inpainted results by supervising deep features of generated regions. However, two challenges have emerged with the usage of auxiliary losses: (i) the time-consuming grid search is required to decide weights for perceptual and style losses to properly perform, and (ii) loss terms with d…

Deep neural advancements have recently brought remarkable image synthesis performance to the field of image inpainting. The adaptation of generative adversarial networks (GAN) in particular has accelerated significant progress in high-quality image reconstruction. However, although many notable GAN-based networks have been proposed for image inpainting, still pixel artifacts or color inconsistency occur in synthesized images during the generation process, which are usually called fake textures. To reduce pixel inconsistency disorder resulted from fake textures, we introduce a GAN-based model u…

Deformable registration of magnetic resonance images between patients with brain tumors and healthy subjects has been an important tool to specify tumor geometry through location alignment and facilitate pathological analysis. Since tumor region does not match with any ordinary brain tissue, it has been difficult to deformably register a patients brain to a normal one. Many patient images are associated with irregularly distributed lesions, resulting in further distortion of normal tissue structures and complicating registration's similarity measure. In this work, we follow a multi-step contex…
In this paper, we proposed a no-reference (NR) quality metric for RGB plus image-depth (RGB-D) synthesis images based on Generative Adversarial Networks (GANs), namely GANs-NQM. Due to the failure of the inpainting on dis-occluded regions in RGB-D synthesis process, to capture the non-uniformly distributed local distortions and to learn their impact on perceptual quality are challenging tasks for objective quality metrics. In our study, based on the characteristics of GANs, we proposed i) a novel training strategy of GANs for RGB-D synthesis images using existing large-scale computer vision da…
In the current era, image manipulation is becoming increasingly easier, yielding more natural looking images, owing to the modern tools in image processing and computer vision techniques. The task of the segregation of forged images has become very challenging. To tackle such problems, publicly available datasets are insufficient. In this paper, we propose to create a synthetic forged dataset using deep semantic image inpainting algorithm. Furthermore, we use an unsupervised domain adaptation network to detect copy-move forgery in images. Our approach can be helpful in those cases, where the c…

Unsupervised domain adaptation (UDA) for nuclei instance segmentation is important for digital pathology, as it alleviates the burden of labor-intensive annotation and domain shift across datasets. In this work, we propose a Cycle Consistency Panoptic Domain Adaptive Mask R-CNN (CyC-PDAM) architecture for unsupervised nuclei segmentation in histopathology images, by learning from fluorescence microscopy images. More specifically, we first propose a nuclei inpainting mechanism to remove the auxiliary generated objects in the synthesized images. Secondly, a semantic branch with a domain discrimi…
In recent years, image manipulation is becoming increasingly more accessible, yielding more natural-looking images, owing to the modern tools in image processing and computer vision techniques. The task of the identification of forged images has become very challenging. Amongst different types of forgeries, the cases of Copy-Move forgery are increasing manifold, due to the difficulties involved to detect this tampering. To tackle such problems, publicly available datasets are insufficient. In this paper, we propose to create a synthetic forged dataset using deep semantic image inpainting and c…
Federated learning methods enable us to train machine learning models on distributed user data while preserving its privacy. However, it is not always feasible to obtain high-quality supervisory signals from users, especially for vision tasks. Unlike typical federated settings with labeled client data, we consider a more practical scenario where the distributed client data is unlabeled, and a centralized labeled dataset is available on the server. We further take the server-client and inter-client domain shifts into account and pose a domain adaptation problem with one source (centralized serv…

To represent the biological variability of clinical neuroimaging populations, it is vital to be able to combine data across scanners and studies. However, different MRI scanners produce images with different characteristics, resulting in a domain shift known as the `harmonisation problem'. Additionally, neuroimaging data is inherently personal in nature, leading to data privacy concerns when sharing the data. To overcome these barriers, we propose an Unsupervised Source-Free Domain Adaptation (SFDA) method, SFHarmony. Through modelling the imaging features as a Gaussian Mixture Model and minim…
In machine learning, if the training data is an unbiased sample of an underlying distribution, then the learned classification function will make accurate predictions for new samples. However, if the training data is not an unbiased sample, then there will be differences between how the training data is distributed and how the test data is distributed. Standard classifiers cannot cope with changes in data distributions between training and test phases, and will not perform well. Domain adaptation and transfer learning are sub-fields within machine learning that are concerned with accounting fo…
