While reasoning technology like Chain-of-Thought (CoT) has been widely adopted in Vision-Language-Action (VLA) models, it demonstrates promising capabilities in end-to-end autonomous driving. However, recent efforts to integrate CoT reasoning often fall short in simple scenarios, introducing unneces…
Perceiving and reconstructing 3D scene geometry from visual inputs is crucial for autonomous driving. However, there still lacks a driving-targeted dense geometry perception model that can adapt to different scenarios and camera configurations. To bridge this gap, we propose a Driving Visual Geometr
Self-supervised learning has made substantial strides in image processing, while visual pre-training for autonomous driving is still in its infancy. Existing methods often focus on learning geometric scene information while neglecting texture or treating both aspects separately, hindering comprehens…
Recent studies have explored leveraging the world knowledge and cognitive capabilities of Vision-Language Models (VLMs) to address the long-tail problem in end-to-end autonomous driving. However, existing methods typically formulate trajectory planning as a language modeling task, where physical act…
Understanding complex surgical scenes requires recognizing multiple interdependent entities--such as instruments, actions, and targets--and maintaining their relational consistency across time. Existing surgical triplet recognition methods struggle to jointly model intra-frame label dependencies and
Vision-Language-Action (VLA) models for autonomous driving often hit a performance plateau during Reinforcement Learning (RL) optimization. This stagnation arises from exploration capabilities constrained by previous Supervised Fine-Tuning (SFT), leading to "persistent failures" in long-tail scenari
The safe deployment of autonomous driving (AD) systems is fundamentally hindered by the long-tail problem, where rare yet critical driving scenarios are severely underrepresented in real-world data. Existing solutions including safety-critical scenario generation and closed-loop learning often rely
Active vision learning aims to develop intelligent systems capable of actively exploring and understanding their surroundings to optimize detection performance. Although current research has begun to explore how reinforcement learning can drive robots to actively perceive their environment, it often…
Image smoothing is a fundamental technique in image processing, designed to eliminate perturbations and textures while preserving dominant structures. It plays a pivotal role in numerous high-level computer vision tasks. More recently, both traditional and deep learning-based smoothing methods have…
Perception and interaction with articulated objects present a unique challenge for service robots. Although recent research has emphasized understanding articulated shapes and affordance proposals, existing methods only address isolated aspects, failing to develop comprehensive strategies for roboti…
Plug-and-play (PnP) methods with deep denoisers have shown impressive results in imaging problems. They typically require strong convexity or smoothness of the fidelity term and a (residual) non-expansive denoiser for convergence. These assumptions, however, are violated in Poisson inverse problems,…
In this paper, we investigate the problem of transmit beamforming design for massive multiple-input multiple-output integrated sensing and communications (MIMO-ISAC) systems, through sensing energy maximization. Most of existing methods for transmit beamforming design suffer from high computational…
Masked Autoencoders (MAE) demonstrated exceptional performance in natural language processing and 2D vision tasks and have now been introduced into point cloud representation learning. We propose Point-UMAE, a novel self-supervised learning method based on a Unet-like structure, designed to enhance…
In Partial Multi-Label Learning (PML), each instance is associated with a candidate label set containing multiple relevant labels along with other false positive labels. Currently, most PML methods directly extract instance correlation from instance features while ignoring the candidate labels, whic
Although COLMAP has long remained the predominant method for camera parameter optimization in static scenes, it is constrained by its lengthy runtime and reliance on ground truth (GT) motion masks for application to dynamic scenes. Many efforts attempted to improve it by incorporating more priors as…
Evaluating the ability of large language models (LLMs) to process lengthy contexts is critical, especially for retrieving query-relevant information embedded within them. We introduce Sequential-NIAH, a benchmark specifically designed to evaluate the capability of LLMs to extract sequential informat
Addressing Out-Of-Distribution (OOD) Segmentation and Zero-Shot Semantic Segmentation (ZS3) is challenging, necessitating segmenting unseen classes. Existing strategies adapt the class-agnostic Mask2Former (CA-M2F) tailored to specific tasks. However, these methods cater to singular tasks, demand tr…
3D Reconstruction of moving articulated objects without additional information about object structure is a challenging problem. Current methods overcome such challenges by employing category-specific skeletal models. Consequently, they do not generalize well to articulated objects in the wild. We tr…
Deep denoisers have shown excellent performance in solving inverse problems in signal and image processing. In order to guarantee the convergence, the denoiser needs to satisfy some Lipschitz conditions like non-expansiveness. However, enforcing such constraints inevitably compromises recovery perfo…
Precise perception of articulated objects is vital for empowering service robots. Recent studies mainly focus on point cloud, a single-modal approach, often neglecting vital texture and lighting details and assuming ideal conditions like optimal viewpoints, unrepresentative of real-world scenarios.…
Reconstructing dynamic articulated objects from a singular monocular video is challenging, requiring joint estimation of shape, motion, and camera parameters from limited views. Current methods typically demand extensive computational resources and training time, and require additional human annotat…
Existing arts have shown promising efforts to deal with the blind deblurring task. However, most of the recent works assume the additive noise involved in the blurring process to be simple-distributed (i.e. Gaussian or Laplacian), while the real-world case is proved to be much more complicated. In t…
