From stacking a tower of blocks to serving a cup of coffee, stable object placement is a crucial skill for future robots. It becomes particularly challenging under geometric uncertainties, e.g., when the object pose or shape is not known accurately. This work leverages a differentiable simulation mo…
Pansharpening aims to generate high-resolution multispectral (MS) images by fusing panchromatic (PAN) images with corresponding low-resolution MS images. However, many existing methods struggle to fully capture spatial and spectral interactions, limiting their effectiveness. To address this, we prop…
The Text-to-Video Retrieval (T2VR) task aims to retrieve unlabeled videos by textual queries with the same semantic meanings. Recent CLIP-based approaches have explored two frameworks: Two-Tower versus Single-Tower framework, yet the former suffers from low effectiveness, while the latter suffers fr…
With the rapid improvement of machine learning technology, leveraging machine learning methods for malware classification has emerged as a viable approach. However, under real-world circumstance, the imbalanced or long-tailed distribution among various malware families, poses a critical challenge to…
We present Jade, a differentiable physics engine for articulated rigid bodies. Jade models contacts as the Linear Complementarity Problem (LCP). Compared to existing differentiable simulations, Jade offers features including intersection-free collision simulation and stable LCP solutions for multipl…
This study introduces a new method for detecting and localizing image forgery by focusing on manipulation traces within the noise domain. We posit that nearly invisible noise in RGB images carries tampering traces, useful for distinguishing and locating forgeries. However, the advancement of tamperi…
To substantially enhance robot intelligence, there is a pressing need to develop a large model that enables general-purpose robots to proficiently undertake a broad spectrum of manipulation tasks, akin to the versatile task-planning ability exhibited by LLMs. The vast diversity in objects, robots, a…
"We present CLIP-IFDL, a novel image forgery detection and localization (IFDL) model that harnesses the power of Contrastive Language Image Pre-Training (CLIP). However, directly incorporating CLIP in forgery detection poses challenges, given its lack of specific prompts and forgery consciousness. T…
Differentiable physics simulation provides an avenue to tackle previously intractable challenges through gradient-based optimization, thereby greatly improving the efficiency of solving robotics-related problems. To apply differentiable simulation in diverse robotic manipulation scenarios, a key cha…

Pan-sharpening aims to generate a high-resolution multispectral (HRMS) image by integrating the spectral information of a low-resolution multispectral (LRMS) image with the texture details of a high-resolution panchromatic (PAN) image. It essentially inherits the ill-posed nature of the super-resolu…
Normalization techniques that capture image style by statistical representation have become a popular component in deep neural networks. Although image enhancement can be considered as a form of style transformation, there has been little exploration of how normalization affect the enhancement perfo…
Pan-sharpening aims to obtain high-resolution multispectral (MS) images for remote sensing systems and deep learning-based methods have achieved remarkable success.

Deep learning provides a new avenue for image restoration, which demands a delicate balance between fine-grained details and high-level contextualized information during recovering the latent clear image. In practice, however, existing methods empirically construct encapsulated end-to-end mapping ne…
This paper attacks the challenging problem of zero-example video retrieval. In such a retrieval paradigm, an end user searches for unlabeled videos by ad-hoc queries described in natural language text with no visual example provided. Given videos as sequences of frames and queries as sequences of wo…
Effective integration of contextual information is crucial for salient object detection. To achieve this, most existing methods based on 'skip' architecture mainly focus on how to integrate hierarchical features of Convolutional Neural Networks (CNNs). They simply apply concatenation or element-wise…
Magnetic resonant coupling (MRC) is an efficient method for realizing the near-field wireless power transfer (WPT). The use of multiple transmitters (TXs) each with one coil can be applied to enhance the WPT performance by coherently combining the magnetic fields induced by all TX coils in a beam to…
