Faster R-CNN: Towards Real-Time Object Detection with Region Proposal Networks, by Shaoqing R., Kaiming H., Ross B. G. & Jian S. (2015) (Cited: 1,421) [pdf] In this work, we introduce a Region Proposal Network (RPN) that shares full-image convolutional features with the detection network, thus enabling nearly cost-free region proposals. An RPN is a fully convolutional network that simultaneously predicts object bounds and objectness scores at each position.
Asynchronous methods for deep reinforcement learning, by Volodymyr M., Adrià P. B., Mehdi M., Alex G., Tim H. et al. (2016) (Cited: 472) [pdf] The best performing method, an asynchronous variant of actor-critic, surpasses the current state-of-the-art on the Atari domain while training for half the time on a single multi-core CPU instead of a GPU. Furthermore, we show that asynchronous actor-critic succeeds on a wide variety of continuous motor control problems as well as on a new task of navigating random 3D mazes using a visual input.

To this end, we formulate mean-field approximate inference for the Conditional Random Fields with Gaussian pairwise potentials as Recurrent Neural Networks.

Long-term recurrent convolutional networks for visual recognition and description, by Jeff D., Lisa Anne H., Sergio G., Marcus R., Subhashini V. et al. (2015) (Cited: 1,285) [pdf] In contrast to current models which assume a fixed spatio-temporal receptive field or simple temporal averaging for sequential processing, recurrent convolutional models are “doubly deep” in that they can be compositional in spatial and temporal “layers”.
U-Net: Convolutional Networks for Biomedical Image Segmentation, by Olaf R., Philipp F. &Thomas B. (2015) (Cited: 975) [pdf] There is large consent that successful training of deep networks requires many thousand annotated training samples.

Image Super-Resolution Using Deep Convolutional Networks, by Chao D., Chen C., Kaiming H. & Xiaoou T. (2014) (Cited: 591) [pdf] Our method directly learns an end-to-end mapping between the low/high-resolution images. The mapping is represented as a deep convolutional neural network (CNN) that takes the low-resolution image as the input and outputs the high-resolution one
Salient Object Detection: A Discriminative Regional Feature Integration Approach, by Huaizu J., Jingdong W., Zejian Y., Yang W., Nanning Z. & Shipeng Li. (2013) (Cited: 518) [pdf] In this paper, we formulate saliency map computation as a regression problem. Our method, which is based on multi-level image segmentation, utilizes the supervised learning approach to map the regional feature vector to a saliency score.
Deep Learning Face Attributes in the Wild, by Ziwei L., Ping L., Xiaogang W. & Xiaoou T. (2015) (Cited: 401) [pdf] This framework not only outperforms the state-of-the-art with a large margin, but also reveals valuable facts on learning face representation. (1) It shows how the performances of face localization (LNet) and attribute prediction (ANet) can be improved by different pre-training strategies. (2) It reveals that although the filters of LNet are fine-tuned only with imagelevel attribute tags, their response maps over entire images have strong indication of face locations.

We introduce a class of CNNs called deep convolutional generative adversarial networks (DCGANs), that have certain architectural constraints, and demonstrate that they are a strong candidate for unsupervised learning.
