This paper continues this push toward generation of highly realistic face images, particularly providing advances in controllable generation and interpolation across attributes.” - Award Committee Best Paper Honorable Mention Learning the Depths of Moving People by Watching Frozen People Zhengqi Li, Tali Dekel, Forrester Cole, Richard Tucker, Ce Liu, Bill Freeman, Noah Snavely “This paper examines 3d reconstruction of scenes with people from monocular video. The paper shows insightful creation of a dataset for this task (Mannequin challenge), in addition to a solid execution of a state of the art algorithm. It has strong potential to be an impactful paper in this area, facilitating future work in outdoor reconstruction with complex moving scenes.” – Award Committee Best Student Paper Award Reinforced Cross-Modal Matching and Self-Supervised Imitation Learning for Vision-Language Navigation Xin Wang, Qiuyuan Huang, Asli Celikyilmaz, Jianfeng Gao, Dinghan Shen, Yuan-Fang Wang, William Yang Wang, Lei Zhang “Visual navigation is an important area of computer vision -- this paper makes advances in vision-language navigation. Building on previous work in this area, this paper demonstrates exciting results based on self-imitation learning within a cross-modal setting.” -- Award Committee Best Paper Award A Theory of Fermat Paths for Non-Line-of-Sight Shape Reconstruction Shumian Xin, Sotiris Nousias, Kyros Kutulakos, Aswin Sankaranarayanan, Srinivasa G. Narasimhan, Ioannis Gkioulekas “This paper makes significant advances in non-line-of-sight reconstruction -- in essence the ability to see around corners. It is a beautiful paper theoretically, as well as inspiring. It continues to push the boundaries of what is possible in computer vision.” -- Award Committee Best paper finalists “Probabilistic Permutation Synchronization using the Riemannian Structure of the “Text2Scene: Generating Compositional Scenes from Textual Birkhoff Polytope,” by Tolga Birdal; Umut Simsekli Descriptions,” by Fuwen Tan; Song Feng; Vicente Ordonez “DeepC : Deep Instance Co-segmentation by Co-peak Search and Co-saliency “Relational Action Forecasting,” by Chen Sun; Abhinav Shrivastava; Carl Detection,”3 by Kuang-Jui Hsu; Yen-Yu Lin; Yung-Yu Chuang Vondrick; Rahul Sukthankar; Kevin Murphy; Cordelia Schmid “SelFlow: Self-Supervised Learning of Optical Flow,” by Pengpeng Liu, Michael Lyu, Irwin King, Jia Xu “Shifting More Attention to Video Salient Object Detection,” by Deng-Ping Fan; Wenguan Wang; Ming-Ming Cheng; Jianbing Shen “SDRSAC: Semidefinite-Based Randomized Approach for Robust Point Cloud Registration without Correspondences,” by Huu Le; Thanh-Toan Do; Tuan NA Hoang; “GA-Net: Guided Aggregation Net for End-to-end Stereo Matching,” by Ngai-Man Cheung Feihu Zhang; Victor Prisacariu; Yang Ruigang; Philip Torr “Deep Tree Learning for Zero-shot Face Anti-Spoofing,” by Yaojie Liu; Joel Stehouwer; “A Skeleton-bridged Deep Learning Approach for Generating Meshes of Amin Jourabloo; Xiaoming Liu Complex Topologies from Single RGB Images,” by Jiapeng Tang; Xiaoguang “Neural RGB -> D Sensing: Depth and Uncertainty from a Video Camera,” by Chao Liu; Han; Junyi Pan; Kui Jia; Xin Tong Jinwei Gu; Kihwan Kim; Srinivasa G Narasimhan; Jan Kautz “Semantic Image Synthesis with Spatially-Adaptive Normalization,” by “Self-supervised 3D hand pose estimation through training by fitting,” by Chengde Taesung Park; Ming-Yu Liu; Ting-Chun Wang; Jun-Yan Zhu Wan; Thomas Probst; Luc Van Gool; Angela Yao “ContactDB: Analyzing and Predicting Grasp Contact via Thermal Imaging,” “Neural Illumination: Lighting Prediction for Indoor Environments,” by Shuran Song; by Samarth Brahmbhatt; Cusuh Ham; Charlie Kemp; James Hays Thomas Funkhouser “Revealing Scenes by Inverting Structure from Motion Reconstructions,” “Shapes and Context: In-the-wild Image Synthesis & Manipulation,” Aayush Bansal; by Francesco Pittaluga; Sanjeev J Koppal; Sing Bing Kang; Sudipta Sinha Yaser Sheikh; Deva Ramanan “A Theory of Fermat Paths for Non-Line-of-Sight Shape Reconstruction,” by “SiCloPe: Silhouette-based Clothed People,” by Ryota Natsume; Shunsuke Saito; Zeng Huang; Weikai Chen; Chongyang Ma; Shigeo Morishima; Hao Li Shumian Xin; Sotiris Nousias; Kyros Kutulakos; Aswin Sankaranarayanan; Srinivasa G Narasimhan; Ioannis Gkioulekas “A General and Adaptive Robust Loss Function,” by Jonathan T Barron “Relation-Shape Convolutional Neural Network for Point Cloud Analysis,” “2.5D Visual Sound,” by Ruohan Gao; Kristen Grauman by Yongcheng Liu; Bin Fan; Shiming Xiang; Chunhong Pan “Incremental Object Learning from Contiguous Views,” by Stefan Stojanov; Samarth “BubbleNets: Learning to Select the Guidance Frame in Video Object Mishra; Ngoc Anh Thai; Nikhil Dhanda; Ahmad Humayun; Linda Smith; Chen Yu; Segmentation by Deep Sorting Frames,” by Brent Griffin; Jason J Corso James Rehg Best paper finalists “Image Deformation Meta-Networks for One-Shot Learning,” by Zitian Chen; Yanwei “Occupancy Networks: Learning 3D Reconstruction
