Recent advancements in vision-language models have enabled multi-modal person re-identification (Re-ID), where the system takes both an image and a text query to identify matching individuals. While previous state-of-the-art methods perform well with detailed, sentence-level descriptions, we found t
Inferring rigid-body physical states and properties from monocular videos is a fundamental step toward physics-based perception and simulation. Existing approaches assume specific underlying physical systems, object types, and camera poses, which are unable to generalize to complex real-world settin
Multi-modal Large Language Models (MLLMs) show promise in video understanding. However, their reasoning often suffers from thinking drift and weak temporal comprehension, even when enhanced by Reinforcement Learning (RL) techniques like Group Relative Policy Optimization (GRPO). Moreover, existing R
In recent years, predicting Big Five personality traits from multimodal data has received significant attention in artificial intelligence (AI). However, existing computational models often fail to achieve satisfactory performance. Psychological research has shown a strong correlation between pose a…
Traditional Unsupervised Domain Adaptation (UDA) leverages the labeled source domain to tackle the learning tasks on the unlabeled target domain. It can be more challenging when a large domain gap exists between the source and the target domain. A more practical setting is to utilize a large-scale p…
"The lightweight nature of IoT devices makes it challenging to run deep neural networks (DNNs) locally for applications like augmented reality. Recent advances in IoT communication like LTE-M have significantly boosted the link bandwidth, enabling IoT devices to stream visual data to edge servers ru…
To leverage deep learning for image aesthetics assessment, one critical but unsolved issue is how to seamlessly incorporate the information of image aspect ratios to learn more robust models. In this paper, an adaptive fractional dilated convolution (AFDC), which is aspect-ratio-embedded, compositio…
