The Learning and Machine Perception (LAMP) team at the Computer Vision Center conducts fundamental research and technology transfer in the field of machine learning for semantic understanding of visual data. The group works with a wide variety of visual data sources: from multispectral, medical imagery and consumer camera images, to live webcam streams and video data. The returning objective is the design of efficient and accurate algorithms for the automatic extraction of semantic information from visual media.

on 25/11/2016
Two papers will be presented at the NIPS workshop on Adversarial Training. “Ensembles of Generative Adversarial Networks” investigates the usage of ensembles for GANs, and shows that they can significantly improve results. “Invertible Conditional GANs for image editing” adds a encoder to a conditional GAN, thereby allowing to do semantic editing of photos. The code is available here.
