Whole slide image (WSI) analysis in digital pathology presents unique challenges due to the gigapixel resolution of WSIs and the scarcity of dense supervision signals. While Multiple Instance Learning (MIL) is a natural fit for slide-level tasks, training robust models requires large and diverse dat…
Progress in a research field can be hard to assess, in particular when many concurrent methods are proposed in a short period of time. This is the case in digital pathology, where many foundation models have been released recently to serve as feature extractors for tile-level images, being used in a…
Implicit representations such as Neural Radiance Fields (NeRF) allow to map color, density and semantics in a 3D scene through a continuous neural function. However, these models typically require manual and careful human data collection for training. This paper addresses the problem of active explo
Successfully addressing a wide variety of tasks is a core ability of autonomous agents requiring flexibly adapting the underlying decision-making strategies and as we argue in this work also adapting the perception modules. An analogical argument would be the human visual system which uses top-down…
Understanding and mapping a new environment are core abilities of any autonomously navigating agent. While classical robotics usually estimates maps in a stand-alone manner with SLAM variants, which maintain a topological or metric representation, end-to-end learning of navigation keeps some form of…
In the context of visual navigation, the capacity to map a novel environment is necessary for an agent to exploit its observation history in the considered place and efficiently reach known goals. This ability can be associated with spatial rea-soning, where an agent is able to perceive spatial rela…
Digital artists often improve the aesthetic quality of digital photographs through manual retouching. Beyond global adjustments, professional image editing programs provide local adjustment tools operating on specific parts of an image. Options include parametric (graduated, radial filters) and unco…
