DeDA is a general-purpose library tailored for differentiable image transformations, particularly suitable for operations involving integration or summing, such as Hough Transform, Radon Transform, and the creation of Bilateral Grids. It's designed to facilitate the development and experimentation of image processing tasks that benefit from the gradient-based learning.
The Deep Directed Accumulator (DeDA) establishes a complementary relationship with grid sampling (GS), where GS "pulls" values to each cell in the target feature map from the source, whereas DeDA "pushes" values from each cell in the source to the target feature map. Essentially, GS samples, while DeDA accumulates values from the source. DeDA, as a forward function, highlights key geometric structures like lines and circles in new representations.
