Accurate perception is critical for vehicle safety, with LiDAR as a key enabler in autonomous driving. To ensure robust performance across environments, sensor types, and weather conditions without costly re-annotation, domain generalization in LiDAR-based 3D semantic segmentation is essential. Howe…
Despite substantial progress in video understanding, most existing datasets are limited to Earth’s gravitational conditions.

Conventional document layout analysis (DLA) traditionally depends on empirical priors or a fixed set of learnable queries executed in a single forward pass. While sufficient for early-generation documents with a small, predetermined number of regions, this paradigm struggles with contemporary docume
Industrial workflows demand adaptive and trustworthy assistance that can operate under limited computing, connectivity, and strict privacy constraints.

3D semantic occupancy prediction is central to autonomous driving, yet current methods are vulnerable to long-tailed class bias and out-of-distribution (OOD) inputs, often overconfidently assigning anomalies to rare classes. We present ProOOD, a lightweight, plug-and-play method that couples prototy
Metric Cross-View Geo-Localization (MCVGL) aims to estimate the 3-DoF camera pose (position and heading) by matching ground and satellite images. In this work, instead of pinhole and satellite images, we study robust MCVGL using holistic panoramas and OpenStreetMap (OSM). To this end, we establish a
Cross-domain panoramic semantic segmentation has attracted growing interest as it enables comprehensive 360^ \circ scene understanding for real-world applications. However, it remains particularly challenging due to severe geometric Field of View (FoV) distortions and inconsistent open-set semantics
Embodied intelligence relies on accurately segmenting objects actively involved in interactions. Action-based video object segmentation addresses this by linking segmentation with action semantics, but it depends on large-scale annotations and prompts that are costly, inconsistent, and prone to mult…
Understanding and decoding human brain activity from electroencephalography (EEG) signals is a fundamental problem in neuroscience and artificial intelligence, with applications ranging from cognition and emotion recognition to clinical diagnosis and brain–computer interfaces. While recent EEG found…
Semantic scene understanding in bird-eye view (BEV) plays a crucial role in autonomous driving. A common approach to generating BEV maps from LiDAR point-cloud data involves constructing a pillar-level representation by projecting 3D point clouds onto a 2D plane. This process partially discards spat
When reading a document, glancing at the spatial layout of a document is an initial step to understand it roughly. Traditional document layout analysis (DLA) methods, however, offer only a superficial parsing of documents, focusing on basic instance detection and often failing to capture the nuanced…
Action segmentation is a core challenge in high-level video understanding, aiming to partition untrimmed videos into segments and assign each a label from a predefined action set.
