Getting involved

There is now a mailing list for this reading group. Send me (Damien) an email to get on it. No problem.

Note: this reading group is about deep learning as applied to depth estimation from a single image - one of the super hot topics. If your interest is deep learning in general, you may find some of the readings a little bit off-topic. So let me know if you want some idea about which you should read for.

Details

Foley & Maitlin Chapter 6 - Distance & Size Perception

Because our project is about using machine learning to extract depth from a single image (with deep learning, then applying it to robot problems) it pays to learn a bit about how humans do it...

https://books.google.com.tr/books?id=jLBmCgAAQBAJ&printsec=frontcover

Go to Chapter 6.

If that doesn't work (some have reported finding it difficult to access Chapter 6), try the following link: http://tinyurl.com/yalnnwp9 - some have reported being able to access the chapter by doing a google search for content.

Another thing to try that has worked for some is to log out of any google/gmail account before trying to access.

If nothing else works, email me.

Saxena, Min & Ng: Make3D

http://ieeexplore.ieee.org/xpls/abs_all.jsp?arnumber=4531745

This is the classic paper that brought machine learning to the problem of depth from a single image, quite successfully, considering previous attempts. It uses Markov Random Fields, which are a bit advanced but, importantly, quite slow.

Note: because our library has a subscription to IEEE Xplore, you can access the above link from on-campus or via off-campus library access or via VPN.

But, here is an alternative link: http://www.cs.cornell.edu/~asaxena/reconstruction3d/saxena_make3d_learning3dstructure.pdf

There are some videos and things available here: http://make3d.cs.cornell.edu/ -- there used to be a live online demo but they've closed that. There is also a list of results on the Make3D dataset up till about 2012: http://make3d.cs.cornell.edu/results_stateoftheart.html

After that other datasets started being used also.

Superpixels are used in the study. Here is a quick intro to them: http://ttic.uchicago.edu/~xren/research/superpixel/

MRFs are more difficult and if anybody has seen a good tutorial for them let me know so that I can link to it here. The best I could find is https://mitpress.mit.edu/sites/default/files/titles/content/9780262015776_sch_0001.pdf but it is still a bit difficult. We will probably end up discussing what MRFs are a lot on Thursday.

Michels, Saxena & Ng: High speed obstacle avoidance

http://dl.acm.org/citation.cfm?id=1102426

Here the same authors focus on a related problem, that of determining open spaces for guiding a vehicle, again using machine learning techniques.

This version of the paper might be of higher quality (thanks to Hossein for finding):

http://ai.stanford.edu/~asaxena/rccar/ICML_ObstacleAvoidance.pdf

Karsch, Liu & Kang: Depth Transfer

http://ieeexplore.ieee.org/xpls/abs_all.jsp?arnumber=5551153

http://ieeexplore.ieee.org/xpls/abs_all.jsp?arnumber=6787109

This is a nonparametric approach to depth from a single image. They search a database of images similar to the observed one then warp the image retrieved from the database to estimate the depth of the current image.

For those who are not on campus, a temporary link:

LeCun, Bengio & Hinton: Deep Learning Review

http://www.nature.com/nature/journal/v521/n7553/full/nature14539.html?foxtrotcallback=true

Alternative link: http://pages.cs.wisc.edu/~dyer/cs540/handouts/deep-learning-nature2015.pdf

A whirlwind compressed intro to deep learning and its parts.

Or you can find lots of gentle short intros: https://www.google.com.tr/search?q=intro+to+deep+learning

Rumelhart, Hinton & Williams: Backpropagation

An early paper introducing backpropagation, the main way we train neural networks nowadays: http://www.nature.com/articles/323533a0

Alternative link: http://www.cs.toronto.edu/~hinton/absps/naturebp.pdf

LeCun, Bottou, Bengio & Haffner: CNNs

http://ieeexplore.ieee.org/abstract/document/726791/

Alternative link: http://www.dengfanxin.cn/wp-content/uploads/2016/03/1998Lecun.pdf

Here is the classic paper applying convolutional neural networks to image processing.

Krizhevsky, Sutskever & Hinton: ImageNet/AlexNet

https://papers.nips.cc/paper/4824-imagenet-classification-with-deep-convolutional-neural-networks.pdf

Here is when convolutional neural networks and deep learning really showed what it could do - the problem of image recognition.

But we won't use this because a lot of the complexity it introduces turns out not to be necessary. Later methods are "cleaner". So we have taken it out of the reading list.

Simonyan & Zisserman: VGG-16

http://arxiv.org/abs/1409.1556

A relatively recent "deep" deep net with 16 layers for image recognition. Note: successful recent networks have one thousand layers.

Eigen, Puhrsch & Fergus: Depth map prediction

https://www.cs.nyu.edu/~deigen/depth/

Finally, we apply deep neural convolutional networks to the problem that we are interested in.

Shelhamer, Long & Darrell: Fully Convolutional Segmentation

http://arxiv.org/abs/1605.06211

Here a related problem is solved, that of semantic segmentation, but this approach is applicable to our problem.

Loffe & Szegedy: Batch Normalization

https://arxiv.org/abs/1502.03167

A recent technique that has enabled powerful new methods and ultimately much deeper neural networks. Important stuff.

He, Zhang, Ren & Sun: ResNets

https://arxiv.org/abs/1512.03385

This work and variations on it have been the basis of the 1000 layer recent neural networks. Important stuff.

Girshick, Donahue, Darrell & Malik: R-CNN

https://arxiv.org/abs/1311.2524

We take a slight seque to check out how tracking has been done recently with neural networks. Note that Faster-RCNN and more recent alternatives use similar principles but do it faster.

Liao, Huang, Wang, Kodagoda, Yu & Liu: Fuse with laser

https://arxiv.org/abs/1611.02174

Here we see an interesting depth-from-single-image sensor fusion with robotics applications.

Giuisti et al.: Forest trails CNN

http://ieeexplore.ieee.org/document/7358076/

Alternative link: http://rpg.ifi.uzh.ch/docs/RAL16_Giusti.pdf

See also youtube: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=umRdt3zGgpU

Here we have a CNN-based update to the learn-to-navigate-from-images problem addressed by Saxena et al. above.

Cao, Wu & Shen: Fully convolutional depth 1

http://arxiv.org/abs/1605.02305

Here we start a series of recent papers that take different approaches using deep nets to depth from a single image.

Laina et al.: Fully convolutional depth 2

http://arxiv.org/abs/1606.00373

Here we continue a series of recent papers that take different approaches using deep nets to depth from a single image.

Li, Klein & Yao: Fully convolutional depth 3

http://arxiv.org/abs/1607.00730

Here we finalise a series of recent papers that take different approaches using deep nets to depth from a single image.

Luo et al.: Deep Learning + Stereo

Combining deep learning and stereo.

https://www.cs.toronto.edu/~urtasun/publications/luo_etal_cvpr16.pdf

Goodfellow et al.: Generative Adversarial Nets

https://papers.nips.cc/paper/5423-generative-adversarial-nets

Another important recent development that we may make use of.

Dosovitskiy, Springenberg, Tatarchenko & Brox: Generating images

https://arxiv.org/abs/1411.5928

A non-adversarial approach to the same problem.

Oord et al.: Pixel-RNN & Pixel-CNN

https://arxiv.org/abs/1601.06759

Producing distributions over images. We have always intended to do something like this for depth images.

http://arxiv.org/abs/1606.05328

Isola et al. Pix2Pix

https://arxiv.org/abs/1611.07004

We can use this too. And it's cool.
