LightVessel: Exploring Lightweight Coronary Artery Vessel Segmentation via Similarity Knowledge Distillation

In recent years, deep convolution neural networks (DCNNs) have achieved great prospects in coronary artery vessel segmentation. However, it is difficult to deploy complicated models in clinical scenarios since high-performance approaches have excessive parameters and high computation costs. To tackle this problem, we propose \textbf{LightVessel}, a Similarity Knowledge Distillation Framework, for lightweight coronary artery vessel segmentation. Primarily, we propose a Feature-wise Similarity Distillation (FSD) module for semantic-shift modeling. Specifically, we calculate the feature similarit…

Exploring Stroke-Level Modifications for Scene Text Editing

Scene text editing (STE) aims to replace text with the desired one while preserving background and styles of the original text. However, due to the complicated background textures and various text styles, existing methods fall short in generating clear and legible edited text images. In this study, we attribute the poor editing performance to two problems: 1) Implicit decoupling structure. Previous methods of editing the whole image have to learn different translation rules of background and text regions simultaneously. 2) Domain gap. Due to the lack of edited real scene text images, the netwo…

Automatic Relation-aware Graph Network Proliferation

Graph neural architecture search has sparked much attention as Graph Neural Networks (GNNs) have shown powerful reasoning capability in many relational tasks. However, the currently used graph search space overemphasizes learning node features and neglects mining hierarchical relational information. Moreover, due to diverse mechanisms in the message passing, the graph search space is much larger than that of CNNs. This hinders the straightforward application of classical search strategies for exploring complicated graph search space. We propose Automatic Relation-aware Graph Network Proliferat…

Best of Both Worlds: AutoML Codesign of a CNN and its Hardware Accelerator

Neural architecture search (NAS) has been very successful at outperforming human-designed convolutional neural networks (CNN) in accuracy, and when hardware information is present, latency as well. However, NAS-designed CNNs typically have a complicated topology, therefore, it may be difficult to design a custom hardware (HW) accelerator for such CNNs. We automate HW-CNN codesign using NAS by including parameters from both the CNN model and the HW accelerator, and we jointly search for the best model-accelerator pair that boosts accuracy and efficiency. We call this Codesign-NAS. In this paper…
