    HiMODE: A Hybrid Monocular Omnidirectional Depth Estimation Model
    (IEEE, 2022) Junayed, Masum Shah; Sadeghzadeh, Arezoo; Islam, Md Baharul; Wong, Lai-Kuan; Aydin, Tarkan; Bahcesehir University; Multimedia University
    Monocular omnidirectional depth estimation is receiving considerable research attention due to its broad applications for sensing 360 degrees surroundings. Existing approaches in this field suffer from limitations in recovering small object details and data lost during the ground-truth depth map acquisition. In this paper, a novel monocular omnidirectional depth estimation model, namely HiMODE is proposed based on a hybrid CNN+Transformer (encoder-decoder) architecture whose modules are efficiently designed to mitigate distortion and computational cost, without performance degradation. Firstly, we design a feature pyramid network based on the HNet block to extract high-resolution features near the edges. The performance is further improved, benefiting from a self and cross attention layer and spatial/temporal patches in the Transformer encoder and decoder, respectively. Besides, a spatial residual block is employed to reduce the number of parameters. By jointly passing the deep features extracted from an input image at each backbone block, along with the raw depth maps predicted by the transformer encoder-decoder, through a context adjustment layer, our model can produce resulting depth maps with better visual quality than the ground-truth. Comprehensive ablation studies demonstrate the significance of each individual module. Extensive experiments conducted on three datasets, Stanford3D, Matterport3D, and SunCG, demonstrate that HiMODE can achieve state-of-the-art performance for 360 degrees monocular depth estimation.

    Deep Covariance Feature and CNN-based End-to-End Masked Face Recognition
    (IEEE, 2021) Junayed, Masum Shah; Sadeghzadeh, Arezoo; Islam, Md Baharul; Struc, V; Ivanovska, M; Bahcesehir University
    With the emergence of the global epidemic of COVID-19, face recognition systems have achieved much attention as contactless identity verification methods. However, covering a considerable part of the face by the mask poses severe challenges for conventional face recognition systems. This paper proposes an automated Masked Face Recognition (MFR) system based on the combination of a mask occlusion discarding technique and a deep-learning model. Initially, a pre-processing step is carried out in which the images pass three filters. Then, a Convolutional Neural Network (CNN) model is proposed to extract the features from unoccluded regions of the faces (i.e., eyes and forehead). These feature maps are employed to obtain covariance-based features. Two extra layers, i.e., Bitmap and Eigenvalue, are designed to reduce the dimension and concatenate these covariance feature matrices. The deep covariance features are quantized to codebooks combined based on Bag-of-Features (BoF) paradigm. Finally, a global histogram is created based on these codebooks and utilized for training an SVM classifier. The proposed method is trained and evaluated on Real-World-Masked-Face-Recognition-Dataset (RMFRD) and Simulated-Masked-Face-Recognition-Dataset (SMFRD) achieves an accuracy of 95.07% and 92.32%, respectively, showing its competitive performance compared to the state-of-the-art. Experimental results prove that our system has high robustness against noisy data and illumination variations.
