Article Citation - WoS: 43Citation - Scopus: 47Semantic Segmentation of Outdoor Panoramic Images(Springer, 2021) Orhan, Semih; Baştanlar, YalınOmnidirectional cameras are capable of providing 360. field-of-view in a single shot. This comprehensive view makes them preferable for many computer vision applications. An omnidirectional view is generally represented as a panoramic image with equirectangular projection, which suffers from distortions. Thus, standard camera approaches should be mathematically modified to be used effectively with panoramic images. In this work, we built a semantic segmentation CNN model that handles distortions in panoramic images using equirectangular convolutions. The proposed model, we call it UNet-equiconv, outperforms an equivalent CNN model with standard convolutions. To the best of our knowledge, ours is the first work on the semantic segmentation of real outdoor panoramic images. Experiment results reveal that using a distortion-aware CNN with equirectangular convolution increases the semantic segmentation performance (4% increase in mIoU). We also released a pixel-level annotated outdoor panoramic image dataset which can be used for various computer vision applications such as autonomous driving and visual localization. Source code of the project and the dataset were made available at the project page (https://github.com/semihorhan/semseg-outdoor-pano). © 2021, The Author(s), under exclusive licence to Springer-Verlag London Ltd., part of Springer Nature.Conference Object Citation - Scopus: 6Gender Prediction From Tweets With Convolutional Neural Networks: Notebook for Pan at Clef 2018(CEUR Workshop Proceedings, 2018) Sezerer, Erhan; Polatbilek, Ozan; Sevgili, Özge; Tekir, SelmaThis paper presents a system1 developed for the author profiling task of PAN at CLEF 2018. The system utilizes style-based features to predict the gender information from the given tweets of each user. These features are automatically extracted by Convolutional Neural Networks (CNN). The system mainly depends on the idea that the informativeness of each tweet is not the same in terms of the gender of a user. Thus, the attention mechanism is included to the CNN outputs in order to discriminate the tweets carrying more information. Our architecture was able to obtain competitive results on three languages provided by the PAN 2018 author profiling challenge with an average accuracy of 75.1% on local runs and 70.23% on the submission run.Article Citation - WoS: 6Citation - Scopus: 7Convolutional Bias Removal Based on Normalizing the Filterbank Spectral Magnitude(Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers Inc., 2007) Tüfekçi, ZekeriyaIn this letter, a novel convolutional bias removal technique is proposed. The proposed method is based on scaling the filterbank magnitude by the average of filterbank magnitude over time. The relation between the cepstral mean normalization (CMN) and proposed algorithm is derived. The experimental results show that the proposed algorithm is more robust than the CMN for both convolutional bias and additive noise. For example, the proposed method reduced the equal error rate by 5.66% and 10.16% on average for the convolutional bias and 12-dB additive noise, respectively.
