In this paper, we extend scene understanding to include that of human sketch. The result is a
complete trilogy of scene representation from three diverse and complementary modalities …

Sketches are highly expressive, inherently capturing subjective and fine-grained visual
cues. The exploration of such innate properties of human sketches has, however, been …

Human sketch has already proved its worth in various visual understanding tasks (eg,
retrieval, segmentation, image-captioning, etc). In this paper, we reveal a new trait of …

This paper advances the fine-grained sketch-based image retrieval (FG-SBIR) literature by
putting forward a strong baseline that overshoots prior state-of-the art by 11%. This is not via …

Given an abstract, deformed, ordinary sketch from untrained amateurs like you and me, this
paper turns it into a photorealistic image-just like those shown in Fig. 1 (a), all non-cherry …

Person re-identification (re-ID) requires densely distributed cameras. In practice, the person
of interest may not be captured by cameras and, therefore, needs to be retrieved using …

The ability to retrieve a photo by mere free-hand sketching highlights the immense potential
of Fine-grained sketch-based image retrieval (FG-SBIR). However, its rapid practical …

Zero-shot sketch-based image retrieval (ZS-SBIR) is challenging due to the cross-domain
nature of sketches and photos, as well as the semantic gap between seen and unseen …

We conduct a detailed study of the ability of pretrained on pretext tasks ViT and ResNet
feature layers to quantify the similarity between pairs of 2D sketch views of individual 3D …
