MxT: Mamba x Transformer for Image Inpainting (2024)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Chen, S., Atapour-Abarghouei, A., Zhang, H., & Shum, H. P. H. (2024, November). MxT: Mamba x Transformer for Image Inpainting. Presented at BMVC 2024: The 35th British Machine Vision Conference, Glasgow, UK

Image inpainting, or image completion, is a crucial task in computer vision that aims to restore missing or damaged regions of images with semantically coherent content. This technique requires a precise balance of local texture replication and globa... Read More about MxT: Mamba x Transformer for Image Inpainting.

Adaptive Graph Learning from Spatial Information for Surgical Workflow Anticipation (2024)
Journal Article
Zhang, F. X., Deng, J., Lieck, R., & Shum, H. P. (2025). Adaptive Graph Learning from Spatial Information for Surgical Workflow Anticipation. IEEE Transactions on Medical Robotics and Bionics, 7(1), 266-280. https://doi.org/10.1109/TMRB.2024.3517137

Surgical workflow anticipation is the task of predicting the timing of relevant surgical events from live video data, which is critical in Robotic-Assisted Surgery (RAS). Accurate predictions require the use of spatial information to model surgical i... Read More about Adaptive Graph Learning from Spatial Information for Surgical Workflow Anticipation.

Neural-code PIFu: High-fidelity Single Image 3D Human Reconstruction via Neural Code Integration (2024)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Liu, R., Remagnino, P., & Shum, H. P. (2024, December). Neural-code PIFu: High-fidelity Single Image 3D Human Reconstruction via Neural Code Integration. Presented at 2024 International Conference on Pattern Recognition, Kolkata, India

We introduce neural-code PIFu, a novel implicit function for 3D human reconstruction, leveraging neural codebooks, our approach learns recurrent patterns in the feature space and reuses them to improve current features. Many existing methods predict... Read More about Neural-code PIFu: High-fidelity Single Image 3D Human Reconstruction via Neural Code Integration.

MAGR: Manifold-Aligned Graph Regularization for Continual Action Quality Assessment (2024)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Zhou, K., Wang, L., Zhang, X., Shum, H. P., Li, F. W. B., Li, J., & Liang, X. (2024, September). MAGR: Manifold-Aligned Graph Regularization for Continual Action Quality Assessment. Presented at Lecture Notes in Computer Science (including subseries Lecture Notes in Artificial Intelligence and Lecture Notes in Bioinformatics), Milan, Italy

Action Quality Assessment (AQA) evaluates diverse skills but models struggle with non-stationary data. We propose Continual AQA (CAQA) to refine models using sparse new data. Feature replay preserves memory without storing raw inputs. However, the mi... Read More about MAGR: Manifold-Aligned Graph Regularization for Continual Action Quality Assessment.
