A customized image editing framework for diverse prohibited and restricted products in illegal online transactions by Wenjin Liu, Jingyu Zou, Shudong Zhang, Ning Luo, Haoming Liu

“…This framework integrates three novel components: (1) a PR-adapter that optimizes image prompts through image augmentation and compression representation techniques; (2) a text description generator combining the CLIP model and a multimodal large language model (MobileVLM) to generate more precise textual descriptions of images; and (3) an image generator, including a new loss function designed to fine-tune the stable diffusion model, enabling a better understanding of text semantics and generating images that more closely align with the textual descriptions. …”

Face Detection and Segmentation Based on Improved Mask R-CNN by Kaihan Lin, Huimin Zhao, Jujian Lv, Canyao Li, Xiaoyong Liu, Rongjun Chen, Ruoyan Zhao

“…To overcome this drawback, we present a face detection and segmentation method based on improved Mask R-CNN, named G-Mask, which incorporates face detection and segmentation into one framework aiming to obtain more fine-grained information of face. Specifically, in this proposed method, ResNet-101 is utilized to extract features, RPN is used to generate RoIs, and RoIAlign faithfully preserves the exact spatial locations to generate binary mask through Fully Convolution Network (FCN). …”
