Cause-and-effect reasoning in video is a significant challenge for Vision-Language Models (VLMs), as it requires going beyond surface-level perception to a deeper understanding of causal mechanisms. However, existing benchmarks rarely provide the fine-grained, grounded evidence needed to rigorously
Addressing pose ambiguity in 6D object pose estimation from single RGB images presents a significant challenge particularly due to object symmetries or occlusions. In response we introduce a novel score-based diffusion method applied to the SE(3) group marking the first application of diffusion mode…
"Scene coordinate regression (SCR) methods have emerged as a promising area of research due to their potential for accurate visual localization. However, many existing SCR approaches train on samples from all image regions, including dynamic objects and texture-less areas. Utilizing these areas for…
The challenge of navigation in environments with dynamic objects continues to be a central issue in the study of autonomous agents. While predictive methods hold promise, their reliance on precise state information makes them less practical for real-world implementation. This study presents visual f…
Understanding dense action in videos is a fundamental challenge towards the generalization of vision models. Several works show that compositionality is key to achieving generalization by combining known primitive elements, especially for handling novel composited structures. Compositional temporal…
In this paper, we introduce a new concept of incorporating factorized flow maps as mid-level representations, for bridging the perception and the control modules in modular learning based robotic frameworks. To investigate the advantages of factorized flow maps and examine their interplay with the o…
"In this work, we present a single-stage framework, named S2F2, for forecasting multiple human trajectories from raw video images by predicting future optical flows. S2F2 differs from the previous two-stage approaches in that it performs detection, Re-ID, and forecasting of multiple pedestrians at t…
In this paper, we focus on a prediction-based novelty estimation strategy upon the deep reinforcement learning (DRL) framework, and present a flow-based intrinsic curiosity module (FICM) to exploit the prediction errors from optical flow estimation as exploration bonuses. We propose the concept of…
In this paper, we present a detailed design of dynamic video segmentation network (DVSNet) for fast and efficient semantic video segmentation. DVSNet consists of two convolutional neural networks: a segmentation network and a flow network. The former generates highly accurate semantic segmentation…
