Histogram Layers for Neural “Engineered” Features
July 23, 2025Abstract: In the computer vision literature, many effective histogram-based features have been developed. These engineered features include local binary patterns and edge histogram descriptors among others and they have been shown to be informative features for a variety of computer vision tasks. In this paper, we explore whether these features can be learned through histogram […]

April 10, 2025Abstract: Triplet loss traditionally relies only on class labels and does not use all available information in multi-task scenarios where multiple types of annotations are available. This paper introduces a Multi-Annotation Triplet Loss (MATL) framework that extends triplet loss by incorporating additional annotations, such as bounding box information, alongside class labels in the loss formulation. […]

February 13, 2025Abstract: Estimating potato tuber mass and size grading with computer vision can help breeders, farmers, and potato processing units reduce manual labor for potato post-harvest handling through optimized technology. The objective of the study was to estimate potato tuber mass and size grades using 2D images. Physical data of potato tubers from 23 different cultivars […]

June 24, 2022Abstract: In many remote sensing and hyperspectral image analysis applications, precise ground truth information is unavailable or impossible to obtain. Imprecision in ground truth often results from highly mixed or sub-pixel spectral responses over classes of interest, a mismatch between the precision of global positioning system (GPS) units and the spatial resolution of collected imagery, and misalignment […]
