HiERO: Understanding the Hierarchy of Human Behavior Enhances Reasoning on Egocentric Videos

ICCV 2025poster

Human activities are particularly complex and variable, and this makes challenging for deep learning models to reason about them. However, we note that such variability does have an underlying structure, composed of a hierarchy of patterns of related actions. We argue that such structure can emerge…

Rethinking Cross-Modal Interaction for Efficient Referring Image Segmentation

RA-L 2025

Referring Image Segmentation, the task of finding and segmenting objects in an image conditioned on a natural language description, is crucial for human-robot collaboration. However, current RIS methods often implement visual-text alignment relying on computationally intensive Transformer-based self

A Backpack Full of Skills: Egocentric Video Understanding with Diverse Task Perspectives

CVPR 2024poster

Human comprehension of a video stream is naturally broad: in a few instants we are able to understand what is happening the relevance and relationship of objects and forecast what will follow in the near future everything all at once. We believe that - to effectively transfer such an holistic percep…

PEM: Prototype-based Efficient MaskFormer for Image Segmentation

CVPR 2024poster

Recent transformer-based architectures have shown impressive results in the field of image segmentation. Thanks to their flexibility they obtain outstanding performance in multiple segmentation tasks such as semantic and panoptic under a single unified framework. To achieve such impressive performan…

Signal Compression via Neural Implicit Representations

ICASSP 2022accepted

Existing end-to-end signal compression schemes using neural networks are largely based on an autoencoder-like structure, where a universal encoding function creates a compact latent space and the signal representation in this space is quantized and stored. Recently, advances from the field of 3D gra…

Learning Graph-Convolutional Representations for Point Cloud Denoising

ECCV 2020poster

Point clouds are an increasingly relevant data type but they are often corrupted by noise. We propose a deep neural network based on graph-convolutional layers that can elegantly deal with the permutation-invariance problem encountered by learning-based point cloud processing methods. The network is…
