Superpixels partition an image into perceptually coherent regions, reducing the cost of downstream vision tasks. Modern deep learning methods excel at superpixel generation but often yield irregular boundaries and isolated pixels, necessitating non-differentiable post-processing to enforce connectiv
Achieving robust generalization from limited data is a central challenge in embodied intelligence. Prevailing methods fail by regressing absolute coordinates, which violates the principle of general covariance. Theoretically, this conflates the intrinsic task geometry with rigid execution patterns, …
We formulate the learning of generalist Vision-Language-Action (VLA) models as a Gromov-Wasserstein alignment problem, aiming to map semantically similar VL embeddings to physically similar motion primitives. However, solving this is challenging due to the mathematical heterogeneity between the doma…
We present Prototypical Pair Network (ProtoPairNet), a novel interpretable architecture that combines deep learning with case-based reasoning to predict continuous targets. While prototype-based models have primarily addressed image classification with discrete outputs, extending these methods to co…
Few-Shot Class-Incremental Learning (FSCIL) studies how to empower the machine learning system to learn novel classes with only a few annotated examples continually. To tackle the FSCIL task, recent state-of-the-art methods propose to employ the meta-learning mechanism, which constructs the pseudo i…
Interpretability is critical for machine learning models in high-stakes settings because it allows users to verify the model's reasoning. In computer vision, prototypical part models (ProtoPNets) have become the dominant model type to meet this need. Users can easily identify flaws in ProtoPNets, bu…
We present ProtoViT, a method for interpretable image classification combining deep learning and case-based reasoning. This method classifies an image by comparing it to a set of learned prototypes, providing explanations of the form ``this looks like that.'' In our model, a prototype consists of **…
Recently, few-shot action recognition receives increasing attention and achieves remarkable progress. However, previous methods mainly rely on limited unimodal data (e.g., RGB frames) while the multimodal information remains relatively underexplored. In this paper, we propose a novel Active Multimod…
We present ProtoConcepts, a method for interpretable image classification combining deep learning and case-based reasoning using prototypical parts. Existing work in prototype-based image classification uses a "this looks like that'' reasoning process, which dissects a test image by finding prototyp…
We present a deformable prototypical part network (Deformable ProtoPNet), an interpretable image classifier that integrates the power of deep learning and the interpretability of case-based reasoning. This model classifies input images by comparing them with prototypes learned during training, yield…
Recently, the transductive graph-based methods have achieved great success in the few-shot classification task. However, most existing methods ignore exploring the class-level knowledge that can be easily learned by humans from just a handful of samples. In this paper, we propose an Explicit Class K…
When we are faced with challenging image classification tasks, we often explain our reasoning by dissecting the image, and pointing out prototypical aspects of one class or another. The mounting evidence for each of the classes helps us make our final decision. In this work, we introduce a deep netw…
A falling rule list is a probabilistic decision list for binary classification, consisting of a series of if-then rules with antecedents in the if clauses and probabilities of the desired outcome ("1") in the then clauses. Just as in a regular decision list, the order of rules in a falling rule list…
