Occlusions pose a significant challenge to optical flow algorithms that rely on local evidences. We consider an occluded point be one is imaged in the reference frame but not next, slight overloading of standard definition since it also includes points move out-of-frame. Estimating motion these extremely difficult, particularly two-frame setting. Previous work relies CNNs learn occlusions, without much success, or requires multiple frames reason about occlusions using temporal smoothness. In...

Classic query optimization techniques, including predicate pushdown, are of limited use for machine learning inference queries, because the user-defined functions (UDFs) which extract relational columns from unstructured inputs often very expensive; predicates will remain stuck behind these UDFs if they happen to require that generated by UDFs. In this work, we demonstrate constructing and applying probabilistic filter data blobs do not satisfy predicate; such filtering is parametrized...

The robust tracking of abrupt motion is a challenging task in computer vision due to its large uncertainty. While various particle filters and conventional Markov-chain Monte Carlo (MCMC) methods have been proposed for visual tracking, these often suffer from the well-known local-trap problem or poor convergence rate. In this paper, we propose novel sampling-based scheme Bayesian filtering framework. To effectively handle problem, first introduce stochastic approximation (SAMC) sampling...

Interactive video segmentation systems aim at producing sub-pixel-level object boundaries for visual effect applications. Recent approaches mainly focus on using sparse user input (i.e. scribbles) efficient segmentation, however, the quality of final is not satisfactory following reasons: (1) boundary each frame often accurate, (2) across adjacent frames wiggle around inconsistently, causing temporal flickering, and (3) there a lack direct control fine tuning.

We consider the problem of pre-training models which convert structured datasets into succinct summaries that can be used to answer cardinality estimation queries. Doing so avoids per-dataset training and, in our experiments, reduces time construct by up 100×. When change, are incrementally updateable. Our key insights use multiple per dataset, learned for columnsets other simpler techniques do not achieve high accuracy, and analogous similar pre-trained images text, have some common...

We consider accelerating machine learning (ML) inference queries on unstructured datasets. Expensive operators such as feature extractors and classifiers are deployed user-defined functions (UDFs), which not penetrable with classic query optimization techniques predicate push-down. Recent schemes (e.g., Probabilistic Predicates or PP) assume independence among the predicates, build a proxy model for each offline, rewrite new by injecting these cheap models in front of expensive ML UDFs. In...
