Monocular Normal Estimation via Shading Sequence Estimation

ICLR 2026oral

Monocular normal estimation aims to estimate normal map from a single RGB image of an object under arbitrary lighting. Existing methods rely on deep models to directly predict normal maps. However, they often suffer from 3D misalignment: while the estimated normal maps may appear to have an overall…

Semantix: An Energy-guided Sampler for Semantic Style Transfer

ICLR 2025poster

Recent advances in style and appearance transfer are impressive, but most methods isolate global style and local appearance transfer, neglecting semantic correspondence. Additionally, image and video tasks are typically handled in isolation, with little focus on integrating them for video transfer.…

Connecting Consistency Distillation to Score Distillation for Text-to-3D Generation

ECCV 2024poster

"Although recent advancements in text-to-3D generation have significantly improved generation quality, issues like limited level of detail and low fidelity still persist, which requires further improvement. To understand the essence of those issues, we thoroughly analyze current score distillation m…

One More Step: A Versatile Plug-and-Play Module for Rectifying Diffusion Schedule Flaws and Enhancing Low-Frequency Controls

CVPR 2024poster

It is well known that many open-released foundational diffusion models have difficulty in generating images that substantially depart from average brightness despite such images being present in the training data. This is due to an inconsistency: while denoising starts from pure Gaussian noise durin…

Class-Incremental Learning on Multivariate Time Series Via Shape-Aligned Temporal Distillation

ICASSP 2023accepted

Class-incremental learning (CIL) on multivariate time series (MTS) is an important yet understudied problem. Based on practical privacy-sensitive circumstances, we propose a novel distillation-based strategy using a single-headed classifier without saving historical samples. We propose to exploit So…

Cocktail: Mixing Multi-Modality Control for Text-Conditional Image Generation

NeurIPS 2023poster

Text-conditional diffusion models are able to generate high-fidelity images with diverse contents. However, linguistic representations frequently exhibit ambiguous descriptions of the envisioned objective imagery, requiring the incorporation of additional control signals to bolster the efficacy of t…

Unified Discrete Diffusion for Simultaneous Vision-Language Generation

ICLR 2023poster

The recently developed discrete diffusion model performs extraordinarily well in generation tasks, especially in the text-to-image task, showing great potential for modeling multimodal signals. In this paper, we leverage these properties and present a unified multimodal generation model, which can p…

Versatile LiDAR-Inertial Odometry With SE(2) Constraints for Ground Vehicles

RA-L 2023

LiDAR SLAM has become one of the major localization systems for ground vehicles since LiDAR Odometry And Mapping (LOAM). Many extension works on LOAM mainly leverage one specific constraint to improve the performance, e.g., information from on-board sensors such as loop closure and inertial state; p

Global Context With Discrete Diffusion in Vector Quantised Modelling for Image Generation

CVPR 2022poster

The integration of Vector Quantised Variational AutoEncoder (VQ-VAE) with autoregressive models as generation part has yielded high-quality results on image generation. However, the autoregressive models will strictly follow the progressive scanning order during the sampling phase. This leads the ex…
