The research encompasses novel methodologies and models that significantly advance existing techniques. This dissertation will not only provide valuable contributions to the academic community but also hold significant potential for practical applications in domains ranging from surveillance to autonomous systems.Consequently, this dissertation proposes three goals. First, we present new approaches for converting optical videos to infrared videos using deep learning. To apply powerful deep learning based algorithms for object detection and classification in infrared videos, it is necessary to have more training data in order to build high performance models. However, in many surveillance applications, one can have a lot more optical videos than infrared videos. This lack of IR video datasets can be mitigated if optical-to-infrared video conversion is possible. We have proposed Attention GAN and MWIRGAN for optical to MWIR conversion. We have shown that synthetic MWIR videos can improve target detection and classification performance at night. Second, we have proposed generative approaches for improved document enhancement and segmentation with small unpaired data. Scanned PDF documents, which serve as digital representations of these historical drawings, often suffer from inherent imperfections such as noise and artifacts introduced during the scanning process. These imperfections, compounded by the heavy and heterogeneous nature of the noise, render the documents unsuitable for seamless integration into modern computer-aided design (CAD) platforms like AutoCAD. Traditional denoising methods, designed to mitigate noise in images adhering to well-defined noise models, prove ineffective when confronted with the complex noise structures present in scanned shipbuilding drawings. To address these challenges, we developed a specialized document enhancement strategy designed specifically for shipbuilding drawings stored as scanned PDF files. Also, we have evaluated the use of the generative adversarial networks for ship deck segmentation in traditional engineering documents. We customized the Pix2pix GAN for our experiments. Moreover, we have used an instruction-based stable diffusion model and visual prompting to clean document images of ship drawing by removing texts and label-related information. Third, we propose the Adversarial Interpretation Mitigation (AIM) method, a novel method for detecting adversarial model manipulation targeted at fooling saliency map-based interpretations. Our approach leverages convolutional kernel responses to identify model manipulation attacks on interpretation methods. AIM needs only clean images to detect the manipulation in a model and proves to be highly efficacious in practical applications. Through extensive experiments, we demonstrate that AIM can identify a diversity of fooling attacks across various interpretation methods, network architectures, and datasets.
