Imagine yourself glancing at a busy street for a few moments, then trying to sketch the scene you saw from memory. Most people could draw the rough positions of the major objects like cars, people, and crosswalks, but almost no one can draw every detail with pixel-perfect accuracy. The same is true for most modern computer vision algorithms: They are fantastic at capturing high-level details of a scene, but they lose fine-grained details as they process information.
Now, MIT researchers have created a system called “FeatUp” that lets algorithms capture all of the high- and low-level details of a scene at the same time — almost like Lasik eye surgery for computer vision.
