Deep reinforcement learning (DRL) has achieved great success in processing vision-based driving tasks. However, the end-to-end training manner makes DRL agents suffer from overfitting training scenes. The agents easily fail to generalize to unseen environments. In this paper, we propose a deep reinforcement learning for autonomous driving by transferring visual features. We formulate the DRL training as a perception and control module and introduce adversarial training mechanism for autonomous driving. The perception module is able to extract invariant features between different domains through adversarial training. While the DRL agent can then be trained on the basis of low dimensional states. In this manner, the proposed approach enables trained agents to adapt to unseen environments by learning robust features invariant across various scenes. We evaluate the proposed approach by transferring visual features between different simulators. The experimental results demonstrate the driving policy trained in the source domain can be directly applied in the target domain, and achieve great efficient and effective performance for autonomous driving.

Person re-identification (re-id) is an important task in video surveillance. It is challenging due to the appearance of person varying a wide range acrossnon-overlapping camera views. Recent years, attention-based models are introduced to learn discriminative representation. In this paper, we consider the attention selection in a natural way as like human moving attention on different parts of the visual field for person re-id. In concrete, we propose a Recurrent Deep Attention Network (RDAN) with an attention selection mechanism based on reinforcement learning. The RDAN aims to adaptively observe the identity-sensitive regions to build up the representation of individuals step by step. Extensive experiments on three person re-id benchmarks Market-1501, DukeMTMC-reID and CUHK03-NP demonstrate the proposed method can achieve competitive performance.

Video saliency detection is an important low-level task that has been used in a large range of high-level applications. In this paper, we proposed a three-stream multi-scale attentive network (TSMSAN) for saliency detection in dynamic scenes. TSMSAN integrates motion vector representation, static saliency map, and RGB information in multi-scales together into one framework on the basis of Fully Convolutional Network (FCN) and spatial attention mechanism. On the one hand, the respective motion features, spatial features, as well as the scene features can provide abundant information for video saliency detection. On the other hand, spatial attention mechanism can combine features with multi-scales to focus on key information in dynamic scenes. In this manner, the proposed TSMSAN can encode the spatiotemporal features of the dynamic scene comprehensively. We evaluate the proposed approach on two public dynamic saliency data sets. The experimental results demonstrate TSMSAN is able to achieve the state-of-the-art performance as well as the excellent generalization ability. Furthermore, the proposed TSMSAN can provide more convincing video saliency information, in line with human perception.
