Age estimation from facial images is typically cast as a label distribution learning or regression problem, since aging is a gradual progress. Its main challenge is the facial feature space w.r.t. ages is inhomogeneous, due to the large variation in ...

In this paper, we study weakly supervised learning where a large amount of data supervision is not accessible. This includes i) incomplete supervision, where only a small subset of labels is given, such as semi-supervised learning and domain adaptati...

Person re-identification (re-id) aims to match people across non-overlapping camera views in a public space. This is a challenging problem because the people captured in surveillance videos often wear similar clothing. Consequently, the differences i...
