Object detection and segmentation algorithms evolved significantly in the last decade. Simultaneous object detection and segmentation paved the way for real-time applications such as autonomous driving. Detection and segmentation of (partially) flooded roadways are essential inputs for vehicle routing and traffic management systems. This paper proposes an automatic floodwater detection and segmentation method utilizing the Mask Region-Based Convolutional Neural Networks (Mask-R-CNN) and Generative Adversarial Networks (GAN) algorithms. To train the model, manually labeled images with urban, suburban, and natural settings are used. The performances of the algorithms are assessed in accurately detecting the floodwater captured in images. The results show that the proposed Mask-R-CNN-based floodwater detection and segmentation outperform previous studies, whereas the GAN-based model has a straightforward implementation compared to other models.

Real World Problems

Generative Adversarial Networks (GANs), while widely successful in modeling complex data distributions, have not yet been sufficiently leveraged in scientific computing and design. Reasons for this include the lack of flexibility of GANs to represent discrete-valued image data, as well as the lack of control over physical properties of generated samples. We propose a new conditional generative modeling approach (InvNet) that efficiently enables modeling discrete-valued images, while allowing control over their parameterized geometric and statistical properties. We evaluate our approach on several synthetic and real world problems: navigating manifolds of geometric shapes with desired sizes; generation of binary two-phase materials; and the (challenging) problem of generating multi-orientation polycrystalline microstructures.

Abstract Data augmentation is a common method to make deep learning assessible on limited data sets. However, classical image augmentation methods result in highly unrealistic images on ultrasound data. Another approach is to utilize learning-based augmentation methods, e.g. based on variational autoencoders or generative adversarial networks. However, a large amount of data is necessary to train these models, which is typically not available in scenarios where data augmentation is needed. One solution for this problem could be a transfer of augmentation models between different medical imaging data sets. In this work, we present a qualitative study of the cross data set generalization performance of different learning-based augmentation methods for ultrasound image data. We could show that knowledge transfer is possible in ultrasound image augmentation and that the augmentation partially results in semantically meaningful transfers of structures, e.g. vessels, across domains.

Segmenting aerial images is of great potential in surveillance and scene understanding of urban areas. It provides a mean for automatic reporting of the different events that happen in inhabited areas. This remarkably promotes public safety and traffic management applications. After the wide adoption of convolutional neural networks methods, the accuracy of semantic segmentation algorithms could easily surpass 80% if a robust dataset is provided. Despite this success, the deployment of a pretrained segmentation model to survey a new city that is not included in the training set significantly decreases accuracy. This is due to the domain shift between the source dataset on which the model is trained and the new target domain of the new city images. In this paper, we address this issue and consider the challenge of domain adaptation in semantic segmentation of aerial images. We designed an algorithm that reduces the domain shift impact using generative adversarial networks (GANs). In the experiments, we tested the proposed methodology on the International Society for Photogrammetry and Remote Sensing (ISPRS) semantic segmentation dataset and found that our method improves overall accuracy from 35% to 52% when passing from the Potsdam domain (considered as source domain) to the Vaihingen domain (considered as target domain). In addition, the method allows efficiently recovering the inverted classes due to sensor variation. In particular, it improves the average segmentation accuracy of the inverted classes due to sensor variation from 14% to 61%.

AbstractA central problem in biomedical imaging is the automated segmentation of images for further quantitative analysis. Recently, fully convolutional neural networks, such as the U-Net, were applied successfully in a variety of segmentation tasks. A downside of this approach is the requirement for a large amount of well-prepared training samples, consisting of image - ground truth mask pairs. Since training data must be created by hand for each experiment, this task can be very costly and time-consuming. Here, we present a segmentation method based on cycle consistent generative adversarial networks, which can be trained even in absence of prepared image - mask pairs. We show that it successfully performs image segmentation tasks on samples with substantial defects and even generalizes well to different tissue types.
