The reliability of autonomous systems in real-world environments is mainly dependent on the robustness of their visual perception.Although recent studies have advanced the handling of visual degradations, physical contaminants that adhere to the camera lens--such as mud, water droplets, and condensa
Robotic manipulation in embodied AI critically depends on large-scale, high-quality datasets that reflect realistic object interactions and physical dynamics. However, existing data collection pipelines are often slow, expensive, and heavily reliant on manual efforts. We present DynScene, a diffusio…
Smartphone cameras are ubiquitous in daily life, yet their performance can be severely impacted by dirty lenses, leading to degraded image quality. This issue is often overlooked in image restoration research, which assumes ideal or controlled lens conditions. To address this gap, we introduced SI…
We aim to train accurate denoising networks for smartphone/digital cameras from single noisy images. Downscaling is commonly used as a practical denoiser for low-resolution images. Based on this processing, we found that the pixel variance of the natural images is more robust to downscaling than the…
Image restoration tasks have witnessed great performance improvement in recent years by developing large deep models. Despite the outstanding performance, the heavy computation demanded by the deep models has restricted the application of image restoration. To lift the restriction, it is required to…
"Despite breakthrough advances in image super-resolution (SR) with convolutional neural networks (CNNs), SR has yet to enjoy ubiquitous applications due to the high computational complexity of SR networks. Quantization is one of the promising approaches to solve this problem. However, existing metho…
In few-shot learning scenarios, the challenge is to generalize and perform well on new unseen examples when only very few labeled examples are available for each task. Model-agnostic meta-learning (MAML) has gained the popularity as one of the representative few-shot learning methods for its flexibi…
Video frame interpolation aims to synthesize accurate intermediate frames given a low-frame-rate video. While the quality of the generated frames is increasingly getting better, state-of-the-art models have become more and more computationally expensive. However, local regions with small or no motio…
We present a novel framework for controllable image restoration that can effectively restore multiple types and levels of degradation of a corrupted image. The proposed model, named TASNet, is automatically determined by our neural architecture search algorithm, which optimizes the efficiency-accura…
Despite its popularity, several recent works question the effectiveness of MAML when test tasks are different from training tasks, thus suggesting various task-conditioned methodology to improve the initialization. Instead of searching for better task-aware initialization, we focus on a complementar…
Image downscaling is one of the most classical problems in computer vision that aims to preserve the visual appearance of the original image when it is resized to a smaller scale. Upscaling a small image back to its original size is a difficult, ill-posed problem due to information loss that arises…
