InstructMixup: Instruction-Guided Salient Patch Editing for Robust Data Augmentation
In image and video technologies, data augmentation is widely used to improve the generalization of deep visual models, and mixup-based strategies that interpolate between samples have become the dominant approach. However, computing informative mixing regions adds substantial overhead, and blending content across different images frequently disrupts the semantic integrity of the resulting sample. We propose \our, a data augmentation method that constructs challenging yet label-consistent training samples entirely within a single visual sample. Authors: Khawar Islam, Arif Mahmood, Xin Jin.
