Video Question Answering (VideoQA) has made significant strides by leveraging multimodal learning to align visual and textual modalities. However, current benchmarks overwhelmingly focus on questions answerable through explicit visual content - actions, objects, and events - directly observable with
The task of video geolocalization aims to determine the precise GPS coordinates of a video's origin and map its trajectory; with applications in forensics, social media, and exploration. Existing classification-based approaches operate at a coarse city-level granularity and fail to capture fine-grai
Existing Large Multimodal Models (LMMs) generally focus on only a few regions and languages. As LMMs continue to improve, it is increasingly important to ensure they understand cultural contexts, respect local sensitivities, and support low-resource languages, all while effectively integrating corr…
Dilemma zones at signalized intersections present a commonly occurring yet unsolved challenge in traffic safety. The onsets of yellow-light prompts varied responses from drivers: some may brake abruptly, compromising ride comfort, while others may accelerate, increasing the likelihood of red-light v
Recent advances in multi-modal large language models (MLLMs) have demonstrated strong performance across various domains; however, their ability to comprehend driving scenes remains less proven. The complexity of driving scenarios, which includes multi-view information, poses significant challenges…
The rapid iteration of autonomous vehicle (AV) deployments leads to increasing needs for building realistic and scalable multi-agent traffic simulators for efficient evaluation. Recent advances in this area focus on closed-loop simulators that enable generating diverse and interactive scenarios. Thi
Autonomous driving (AD) has made significant strides in recent years. However existing frameworks struggle to interpret and execute spontaneous user instructions such as "overtake the car ahead." Large Language Models (LLMs) have demonstrated impressive reasoning capabilities showing potential to br…
The recent growth in the consumption of online media by children during early childhood necessitates data-driven tools enabling educators to filter out appropriate educational content for young learners. This paper presents an approach for detecting educational content in online videos. We focus on…
Contrastive self-supervised learning (CSL) has managed to match or surpass the performance of supervised learning in image and video classification. However, it is still largely unknown if the nature of the representations induced by the two learning paradigms is similar. We investigate this under t…
Driving automation is gradually replacing human driving maneuvers in different applications such as adaptive cruise control and lane keeping. However, contemporary driving automation applications based on expert systems or prede-fined control strategies are not in line with individual human driver's…
