Interpretable-by-design models are gaining traction in computer vision because they provide faithful explanations for their predictions. In image classification, these models typically recover human-interpretable concepts from an image and use them for classification. Sparse concept recovery methods
Flow matching (FM) has emerged as a powerful framework for learning dynamic transport maps between two empirical distributions. However, less explored is the setting with intermediate observed marginals that can help constrain the flows between the endpoints. This "multimarginal" regime is central t…
The intrinsic capability to continuously learn a changing data stream is a desideratum of deep neural networks (DNNs). However, current DNNs suffer from catastrophic forgetting, which interferes with remembering past knowledge. To mitigate this issue, existing Continual Learning (CL) approaches ofte…
Vision language models have played a key role in extracting meaningful features for various robotic applications. Among these, Contrastive Language-Image Pretraining (CLIP) is widely used in robotic tasks that require both vision and natural language understanding. However, CLIP was trained solely o
Grasp detection is a persistent and intricate challenge with various industrial applications. Recently many methods and datasets have been proposed to tackle the grasp detection problem. However most of them do not consider using natural language as a condition to detect the grasp poses. In this pap…
Language-driven grasp detection is a fundamental yet challenging task in robotics with various industrial applications. This work presents a new approach for language-driven grasp detection that leverages lightweight diffusion models to achieve fast inference time. By integrating diffusion processes
We propose the Nesterov neural ordinary differential equations (NesterovNODEs), whose layers solve the second-order ordinary differential equations (ODEs) limit of Nesterov's accelerated gradient (NAG) method, and a generalization called GNesterovNODEs. Taking the advantage of the convergence rate $…
This paper presents a novel approach for synthesizing automatically age-progressed facial images in video sequences using Deep Reinforcement Learning. The proposed method models facial structures and the longitudinal face-aging process of given subjects coherently across video frames. The approach i…
