M3-V Privacy-Preserving Fall Detection with Deep Learning on mmWaveRadar Signal (renamed: Low-Light and Low-Resolution Image Enhancement)

June 29, 2022 in 2019-2020, Project

This project aims to design a deep learning based end-to-end solution for dark image denoising and enhancement using image decomposition method, achieving significant improvement in output image quality. Further it aims to improve the image super-resolution by exploiting temporal redundancy. The project also aims at developing an end-to-end solution for multi-frame image super-resolution which involves image registration using optical flow and deep learning for noise removal, achieving significant gain in performance over the state-of-the-art methods.

O2-M Ontology-based Deep Learning with Explanation for Human Behavior Prediction

June 29, 2022 in 2019-2020, Project

In the second year, we will focus on domain ontology-specific deep learning methods, integrating contemporary deep learning model designs with the existing SMASH healthcare ontology and corresponding data, to structure both model input and potentially output in order to develop meaningful semantic explanations that compare favorably with the state of the art.

B1-S DeepCloud: An Intelligent Platform by the Community and for the Community

June 29, 2022 in 2018-2019, Project

DeepCloud is designed as an open software-defined ecosystem for researchers at different levels with the following salient features and transformative impacts. It is one of the first massively scalable multi-tenant open cloud platform with full-fledged building blocks and comprehensive shared stores (app, model, knowledge, data) for deep learning research and applications.

O3-B Ontology-based Interpretable Deep Learning for Consumer Complaint Explanation and Analysis

June 29, 2022 in 2019-2020, Project

In this project, we will design ontology-based interpretable deep models for consumer complaint explanation and analysis. The main idea of our algorithms is to consider domain knowledge in the design of deep learning models and utilize domain ontologies for explaining the deep learning models and results through casual modeling.

F1-M Bidirectional Deep Learning Architecture for Scene Understanding

June 29, 2022 in 2018-2019, Project

This project aims at creating deep architectures inspired by cognitive sciences to under visual scenes either in images or videos. The characteristic of the proposed architecture is that it simplifies the inference using biological plausible marginals (object type and spatial location), which can be learned in an unsupervised way directly from data (i.e. without labels).
