There has recently been a surge of interest in Wearable Assistant Agents: agents embodied in a wearable form factor such as smart glasses, who can take actions toward a user’s stated goal — a high-level language-expressed command such as “where did I leave my keys?”, “Text Alice I will be late”, or…
To enable progress towards egocentric agents capable of understanding everyday tasks specified in natural language, we propose a benchmark and a synthetic dataset called Egocentric Task Verification (EgoTV). The goal in EgoTV is to verify the execution of tasks from egocentric videos based on the na…
In our pursuit of advancing multi-modal AI assistants capable of guiding users to achieve complex multi-step goals, we propose the task of 'Visual Planning for Assistance (VPA)'. Given a succinct natural language goal, e.g., "make a shelf", and a video of the user's progress so far, the aim of VPA i…
Resource allocation for coverage of geographical spaces is a challenging problem in robotics, sensor networks and security domains. Conventional solution approaches either: (a) rely on exploiting spatio-temporal structure of specific coverage problems, or (b) use genetic algorithms when targeting ge…
Trajectory prediction for scenes with multiple agents and entities is a challenging problem in numerous domains such as traffic prediction, pedestrian tracking and path planning. We present a general architecture to address this challenge which models the crucial inductive biases of motion, namely,…
