With superhuman-level performance of face recognition, we are more concerned about the recognition of fine-grained attributes, such as emotion, age, and gender. However, given that the label space is extremely large and follows a long-tail distribution, it is quite expensive to collect sufficient samples for fine-grained attributes. This results in imbalanced training samples and inferior attribute recognition models. To this end, we propose the use of arbitrary attribute combinations, without human effort, to synthesize face images. In particular, to bridge the semantic gap between high-level attribute label space and low-level face image, we propose a novel neural-network-based approach that maps …

The continuous contributions made by long time contributors (LTCs) are a key factor enabling open source software (OSS) projects to be successful and survival. We study Github as it has a large number of OSS projects and millions of contributors, which enables the study of the transition from newcomers to LTCs. In this paper, we investigate whether we can effectively predict newcomers in OSS projects to be LTCs based on their activity data that is collected from Github. We collect Github data from GHTorrent, a mirror of Github data. We select the most popular 917 projects, which contain 75,046 contributors. …

Food retrieval is an important task to perform analysis of food-related information, where we are interested in retrieving relevant information about the queried food item such as ingredients, cooking instructions, etc. In this paper, we investigate cross-modal retrieval between food images and cooking recipes. The goal is to learn an embedding of images and recipes in a common feature space, such that the corresponding image-recipe embeddings lie close to one another. Two major challenges in addressing this problem are 1) large intra-variance and small inter-variance across cross-modal food data; and 2) difficulties in obtaining discriminative recipe representations. To address these …
