LAPAR: Linearly-Assembled Pixel-Adaptive Regression Network for Single Image Super-Resolution and Beyond
In this paper, the team of researchers propose a linearly-assembled pixel-adaptive regression network (LAPAR), designed and built to deal with a fundamental problem of upsampling a low-resolution (LR) image to its high-resolution (HR) version. LAPAR is highly lightweight and easy to optimize, and helps achieve superb results on SISR benchmarks.

GAN Prior Embedded Network for Blind Face Restoration in the Wild
In this paper, Tao Yang et al. use existing generative adversarial network-based methods to solve the problem of blind face restoration from severely degraded face images in the wild. The proposed GAN prior embedded network (GPEN) generates visually photo-realistic results, which are significantly superior to BFR methods both quantitatively and qualitatively.

Fraud Detection: Using Relational Graph Learning to Detect Collusion
Uber’s popularity attracted the attention of financial criminals in cyberspace. One type of fraudulent behavior is collusion, a cooperative fraud action among users. In this article, Uber Engineering demonstrates a case study of applying a cutting-edge, deep graph learning model called relational graph convolutional networks (RGCN) to detect such collusion.

CogView: Mastering Text-to-Image Generation via Transformers
Text-to-Image generation is a challenging task that requires powerful generative models and cross-modal understanding. CogView is a 4-billion-parameter Transformer with VQ-VAE tokenizer that, according to the authors, achieves a new state-of-the-art FID on blurred MS COCO, outperforms previous GAN-based models and a recent similar work DALL-E.

Long Text Generation by Modeling Sentence-Level and Discourse-Level Coherence
Generating long and coherent text is an important but challenging task. In this paper, the authors propose a long text generation model that represents the prefix sentences at sentence level and discourse level in the decoding process. Extensive experiments show that the model can generate more coherent texts than state-of-the-art baselines.
