Advancing Off-Road Autonomous Driving: The Large-Scale ORAD-3D Dataset and Comprehensive Benchmarks

ICRA 2026poster

A major bottleneck in off-road autonomous driving research lies in the scarcity of large-scale, high-quality datasets and benchmarks. To bridge this gap, we present ORAD-3D, which, to the best of our knowledge, is the largest dataset specifically curated for off-road autonomous driving. ORAD-3D cove…

Beyond Speaker Identity: Text Guided Target Speech Extraction

ICASSP 2025accepted

Target Speech Extraction (TSE) traditionally relies on explicit clues about the speaker’s identity like enrollment audio, face images, or videos, which may not always be available. In this paper, we propose a text-guided TSE model StyleTSE that uses natural language descriptions of speaking style in…

Detect, Disambiguate, and Translate: On-Demand Visual Reasoning for Multimodal Machine Translation with Large Vision-Language Models

NAACL 2025long

Multimodal machine translation (MMT) aims to leverage additional modalities to assist in language translation. With limited parallel data, current MMT systems rely heavily on monolingual English captioning data. These systems face three key issues: they often overlook that visual signals are unneces…

Hyperbolic Learning with Synthetic Captions for Open-World Detection

CVPR 2024poster

Open-world detection poses significant challenges as it requires the detection of any object using either object class labels or free-form texts. Existing related works often use large-scale manual annotated caption datasets for training which are extremely expensive to collect. Instead we propose t…

Mitigating Test-Time Bias for Fair Image Retrieval

NeurIPS 2023poster

We address the challenge of generating fair and unbiased image retrieval results given neutral textual queries (with no explicit gender or race connotations), while maintaining the utility (performance) of the underlying vision-language (VL) model. Previous methods aim to disentangle learned represe…

Physics-Enhanced Machine Learning for Virtual Fluorescence Microscopy

ICCV 2021poster

This paper introduces a new method of data-driven microscope design for virtual fluorescence microscopy. We use a deep neural network (DNN) to effectively design optical patterns for specimen illumination that substantially improve upon the ability to infer fluorescence image information from unstai…
