Achieving an effective fine-grained appearance variation over 2D facial images, whilst preserving facial identity, is a challenging task due to the high complexity and entanglement of common 2D facial feature encoding spaces. Despite these challenges... Read More about Disentangling Racial Phenotypes: Fine-Grained Control of Race-related Facial Phenotype Characteristics.

U3DS3 : Unsupervised 3D Semantic Scene Segmentation (2024)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Liu, J., Yu, Z., Breckon, T. P., & Shum, H. P. H. (2024, January). U3DS3 : Unsupervised 3D Semantic Scene Segmentation. Presented at 2024 IEEE/CVF Winter Conference on Applications of Computer Vision (WACV), Waikoloa, Hawaii, USA

Contemporary point cloud segmentation approaches largely rely on richly annotated 3D training data. However , it is both time-consuming and challenging to obtain consistently accurate annotations for such 3D scene data. Moreover, there is still a lac...

Progressively Select and Reject Pseudo-labelled Samples for Open-Set Domain Adaptation (2024)
Journal Article
Wang, Q., Meng, F., & Breckon, T. P. (2024). Progressively Select and Reject Pseudo-labelled Samples for Open-Set Domain Adaptation. IEEE Transactions on Artificial Intelligence, 5(9), 4403-4414. https://doi.org/10.1109/TAI.2024.3379940

Domain adaptation solves image classification problems in the target domain by taking advantage of the labelled source data and unlabelled target data. Usually, the source and target domains share the same set of classes. As a special case, Open-Set...

Unaligned 2D to 3D Translation with Conditional Vector-Quantized Code Diffusion using Transformers (2023)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Corona-Figueroa, A., Bond-Taylor, S., Bhowmik, N., Gaus, Y. F. A., Breckon, T. P., Shum, H. P., & Willcocks, C. G. (2023, October). Unaligned 2D to 3D Translation with Conditional Vector-Quantized Code Diffusion using Transformers. Presented at ICCV23: 2023 IEEE/CVF International Conference on Computer Vision, Paris, France

Generating 3D images of complex objects conditionally from a few 2D views is a difficult synthesis problem, compounded by issues such as domain gap and geometric misalignment. For instance, a unified framework such as Generative Adversarial Networks... Read More about Unaligned 2D to 3D Translation with Conditional Vector-Quantized Code Diffusion using Transformers.

Robust Semi-Supervised Anomaly Detection via Adversarially Learned Continuous Noise Corruption (2023)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Barker, J., Bhowmik, N., Gaus, Y., & Breckon, T. (2023, February). Robust Semi-Supervised Anomaly Detection via Adversarially Learned Continuous Noise Corruption. Presented at VISAPP 2023: 18th International Conference on Computer Vision Theory and Applications, Lisbon, Portugal

Anomaly detection is the task of recognising novel samples which deviate significantly from pre-established normality. Abnormal classes are not present during training meaning that models must learn effective representations solely across normal clas...
