Haptic Neural Fields: Bringing Tactile Interactions to 3D Rendered Scenes

CVPR 2026

We address the problem of making 3D scenes interactive by asking: what would objects feel like if touched in a virtual environment? While neural scene representations achieve high visual realism, they fall short in modeling physical interactions, such as the vibration patterns produced when surfaces

Lagrangian Hashing for Compressed Neural Field Representations

ECCV 2024poster

"We present Lagrangian Hashing, a representation for neural fields combining the characteristics of fast training NeRF methods that rely on Eulerian grids (i.e. InstantNGP), with those that employ points equipped with features as a way to represent information (e.g. 3D Gaussian Splatting or PointNeR…

MapFlow: Multi-Agent Pedestrian Trajectory Prediction Using Normalizing Flow

ICASSP 2024accepted

In the task of pedestrian trajectory prediction, multi-modal prediction has recently emerged, demonstrating how a good model should predict multiple socially acceptable futures. With this respect, Normalizing Flows (NFs) have shown remarkable generative capabilities that make them particularly suita…

Interpretable Part-Whole Hierarchies and Conceptual-Semantic Relationships in Neural Networks

CVPR 2022oral

Deep neural networks achieve outstanding results in a large variety of tasks, often outperforming human experts. However, a known limitation of current neural architectures is the poor accessibility to understand and interpret the network response to a given input. This is directly related to the hu…

DECA: Deep Viewpoint-Equivariant Human Pose Estimation Using Capsule Autoencoders

ICCV 2021poster

Human Pose Estimation (HPE) aims at retrieving the 3D position of human joints from images or videos. We show that current 3D HPE methods suffer a lack of viewpoint equivariance, namely they tend to fail or perform poorly when dealing with viewpoints unseen at training time. Deep learning methods of…

Out-of-Distribution Detection Using Union of 1-Dimensional Subspaces

CVPR 2021poster

The goal of out-of-distribution (OOD) detection is to handle the situations where the test samples are drawn from a different distribution than the training data. In this paper, we argue that OOD samples can be detected more easily if the training data is embedded into a low-dimensional space, such…

The S-Hock Dataset: Analyzing Crowds at the Stadium

CVPR 2015poster

The topic of crowd modeling in computer vision usually assumes a single generic typology of crowd, which is very simplistic. In this paper we adopt a taxonomy that is widely accepted in sociology, focusing on a particular category, the spectator crowd, which is formed by people "interested in watchi…
