First Runner-up in IEEE Video and Image Processing Cup 2021
Supervised by Professor Kenneth Lam, four BEng in EIE students, including Chang Chun-tzu, Chi Ziheng, Li Xinyue and Wang Shaozhi, teamed up with other students from the University of Technology Sydney, won the First Runner-up of the Video and Image Processing (VIP) Cup 2021 in the IEEE International Conference on Image Processing on 19 September 2021! The VIP Cup competition is sponsored by the IEEE Signal Processing Society. It encourages students to solve real-world problems by using video and image processing methods and techniques. The theme of the VIP Cup is "SLP Human Pose Estimation" this year. Contestants were asked to seek computer vision-based solutions for in-bed pose estimation under the covers. Our winning team presented a multi-level adaptation framework to progressively learn a well-generalized network for cross-domain human pose estimation in this competition. The experimental results demonstrate that the proposed framework can effectively generalize the learned knowledge from the uncovered source domain to the covered target domain for in-bed pose estimation.
