In this video, we look at instance segmentation and introduce the concepts of Mask-RCNN. Watch on:FAU TVFAU TV (no memes)YouTube Read the Transcript (Summer 2020) at:LMETowards Data Science  Continue

In this video, we look at some ideas on how to perform object detection really quickly. This leads to single shot detectors of which YOLO is one of the most popular ones. If you are in need of multi-scale object detection, Retina-Net is a popular choice. Watch on:FAU TVFAU TV (no memes)YouTube ... Continue

In this video, we show how Adaboost is used in the Viola-Jones Algorithm for face detection. Watch on:FAU TVYouTube  Continue

In this video, we start looking into object detection. We start with classical ideas, re-visit the concept of a fully convolutional neural network, and start developing a fast regional CNN detector which finally leads to Faster RCNN.

In this video, we show that Adaboost is actually optimizing the exponential loss. Watch on:FAU TVYouTube  Continue

In this video, we discuss ideas on how to improve on image segmentation. In particular skip connections as used in the U-Net have been applied very successfully here. Also, we, look into other advanced methods such as stacked hourglasses, convolutional pose machines, and conditional random fields i... Continue

In this video, we introduce the Adaboost Algorithm that fuses many weak classifiers to a strong one. Watch on:FAU TVYouTube  Continue

In this video, we introduce the concepts of segmentation and object detection. For image segmentation, you use a CNN encoder in combination with a CNN decoder. We introduce several concepts on how to perform the upsampling in der decoder. Watch on:FAU TVFAU TV (no memes)YouTube Read the Trans... Continue

In this last video on unsupervised learning, we introduce some more advanced GAN concepts to avoid mode collapse and strong intra-batch correlation using virtual batch normalization, unrolled GANs, and minibatch discrimination.
