Abstract:Data imputation addresses the challenge of imputing missing values in database instances, ensuring consistency with the overall semantics of the dataset. Although several heuristics which rely on statistical methods, and ad-hoc rules have been proposed. These do not generalise well and often lack data context. Consequently, they also lack explainability. The existing techniques also mostly focus on the relational data context making them unsuitable for wider application contexts such as in graph data. In this paper, we propose a graph data imputation approach called GIG which relies on graph differential dependencies (GDDs). GIG, learns the GDDs from a given knowledge graph, and uses these rules to train a transformer model which then predicts the value of missing data within the graph. By leveraging GDDs, GIG incoporates semantic knowledge into the data imputation process making it more reliable and explainable. Experimental results on seven real-world datasets highlight GIG's effectiveness compared to existing state-of-the-art approaches.
Abstract:Obstructive Sleep Apnea-Hypopnea Syndrome (OSAHS) is a sleep-related breathing disorder associated with significant morbidity and mortality worldwide. The gold standard for OSAHS diagnosis, polysomnography (PSG), faces challenges in popularization due to its high cost and complexity. Recently, radar has shown potential in detecting sleep apnea-hypopnea events (SAE) with the advantages of low cost and non-contact monitoring. However, existing studies, especially those using deep learning, employ segment-based classification approach for SAE detection, making the task of event quantity estimation difficult. Additionally, radar-based SAE detection is susceptible to interference from body movements and the environment. Oxygen saturation (SpO2) can offer valuable information about OSAHS, but it also has certain limitations and cannot be used alone for diagnosis. In this study, we propose a method using millimeter-wave radar and pulse oximeter to detect SAE, called ROSA. It fuses information from both sensors, and directly predicts the temporal localization of SAE. Experimental results demonstrate a high degree of consistency (ICC=0.9864) between AHI from ROSA and PSG. This study presents an effective method with low-load device for the diagnosis of OSAHS.
Abstract:High-quality driving video generation is crucial for providing training data for autonomous driving models. However, current generative models rarely focus on enhancing camera motion control under multi-view tasks, which is essential for driving video generation. Therefore, we propose MyGo, an end-to-end framework for video generation, introducing motion of onboard cameras as conditions to make progress in camera controllability and multi-view consistency. MyGo employs additional plug-in modules to inject camera parameters into the pre-trained video diffusion model, which retains the extensive knowledge of the pre-trained model as much as possible. Furthermore, we use epipolar constraints and neighbor view information during the generation process of each view to enhance spatial-temporal consistency. Experimental results show that MyGo has achieved state-of-the-art results in both general camera-controlled video generation and multi-view driving video generation tasks, which lays the foundation for more accurate environment simulation in autonomous driving.

Abstract:Recent advancements in generative models have provided promising solutions for synthesizing realistic driving videos, which are crucial for training autonomous driving perception models. However, existing approaches often struggle with multi-view video generation due to the challenges of integrating 3D information while maintaining spatial-temporal consistency and effectively learning from a unified model. In this paper, we propose an end-to-end framework named DriveScape for multi-view, 3D condition-guided video generation. DriveScape not only streamlines the process by integrating camera data to ensure comprehensive spatial-temporal coverage, but also introduces a Bi-Directional Modulated Transformer module to effectively align 3D road structural information. As a result, our approach enables precise control over video generation, significantly enhancing realism and providing a robust solution for generating multi-view driving videos. Our framework achieves state-of-the-art results on the nuScenes dataset, demonstrating impressive generative quality metrics with an FID score of 8.34 and an FVD score of 76.39, as well as superior performance across various perception tasks. This paves the way for more accurate environmental simulations in autonomous driving. Our project homepage: https://metadrivescape.github.io/papers_project/drivescapev1/index.html
Abstract:Vector quantization (VQ) is a method for deterministically learning features through discrete codebook representations. Recent works have utilized visual tokenizers to discretize visual regions for self-supervised representation learning. However, a notable limitation of these tokenizers is lack of semantics, as they are derived solely from the pretext task of reconstructing raw image pixels in an auto-encoder paradigm. Additionally, issues like imbalanced codebook distribution and codebook collapse can adversely impact performance due to inefficient codebook utilization. To address these challenges, We introduce SGC-VQGAN through Semantic Online Clustering method to enhance token semantics through Consistent Semantic Learning. Utilizing inference results from segmentation model , our approach constructs a temporospatially consistent semantic codebook, addressing issues of codebook collapse and imbalanced token semantics. Our proposed Pyramid Feature Learning pipeline integrates multi-level features to capture both image details and semantics simultaneously. As a result, SGC-VQGAN achieves SOTA performance in both reconstruction quality and various downstream tasks. Its simplicity, requiring no additional parameter learning, enables its direct application in downstream tasks, presenting significant potential.
