cnn-for-image-retrieval is a research-oriented project that demonstrates the use of convolutional neural networks (CNNs) for image retrieval tasks. The repository provides implementations of CNN-based methods to extract feature representations from images and use them for similarity-based retrieval. It focuses on applying deep learning techniques to improve upon traditional handcrafted descriptors by learning features directly from data. The code includes training and evaluation scripts that can be adapted for custom datasets, making it useful for experimenting with retrieval systems in computer vision. By leveraging CNN architectures, the project showcases how learned embeddings can capture semantic similarity across varied images. This resource serves as both an educational reference and a foundation for further exploration in image retrieval research.

Kinetics-I3D, developed by Google DeepMind, provides trained models and implementation code for the Inflated 3D ConvNet (I3D) architecture introduced in the paper “Quo Vadis, Action Recognition? A New Model and the Kinetics Dataset” (CVPR 2017). The I3D model extends the 2D convolutional structure of Inception-v1 into 3D, allowing it to capture spatial and temporal information from videos for action recognition. This repository includes pretrained I3D models on the Kinetics dataset, with both RGB and optical flow input streams. The models have achieved state-of-the-art results on benchmark datasets such as UCF101 and HMDB51, and also won first place in the CVPR 2017 Charades Challenge. The project provides TensorFlow and Sonnet-based implementations, pretrained checkpoints, and example scripts for evaluating or fine-tuning models. It also offers sample data, including preprocessed video frames and optical flow arrays, to demonstrate how to run inference and visualize outputs.

SVoice is a PyTorch-based implementation of Facebook Research’s study on speaker voice separation as described in the paper “Voice Separation with an Unknown Number of Multiple Speakers.” This project presents a deep learning framework capable of separating mixed audio sequences where several people speak simultaneously, without prior knowledge of how many speakers are present. The model employs gated neural networks with recurrent processing blocks that disentangle voices over multiple computational steps, while maintaining speaker consistency across output channels. Separate models are trained for different speaker counts, and the largest-capacity model dynamically determines the actual number of speakers in a mixture. The repository includes all necessary scripts for training, dataset preparation, distributed training, evaluation, and audio separation.
