In this work, we highlight vulnerabilities in robotic systems integrating large language models (LLMs) and vision-language models (VLMs) due to input modality sensitivities. While LLM/VLM-controlled robots show impressive performance across various tasks, their reliability under slight input variati
We present a novel autonomous robot navigation algorithm for outdoor environments that is capable of handling diverse terrain traversability conditions. Our approach, VLM-GroNav, uses vision-language models (VLMs) and integrates them with physical grounding that is used to assess intrinsic terrain p
We present AGL-NET, a novel learning-based method for global localization using LiDAR point clouds and satellite maps. AGL-Net tackles two critical challenges: bridging the representation gap between image and points modalities for robust feature matching, and handling inherent scale discrepancies b…
Large vision-language models (LVLMs) are prone to hallucinations, where certain contextual cues in an image can trigger the language module to produce overconfident and incorrect reasoning about abnormal or hypothetical objects. While some benchmarks have been developed to investigate LVLM hallucina…
We introduce "HallusionBench" a comprehensive benchmark designed for the evaluation of image-context reasoning. This benchmark presents significant challenges to advanced large visual-language models (LVLMs) such as GPT-4V(ision) Gemini Pro Vision Claude 3 and LLaVA-1.5 by emphasizing nuanced unders…
We present a new learning approach, Soft Conditional Prompt Learning (SCP), which leverages the strengths of prompt learning for aerial video action recognition. Our approach is designed to predict the action of each agent by helping the models focus on the descriptions or instructions associated wi…
We propose a novel approach for aerial video action recognition. Our method is designed for videos captured using UAVs and can run on edge or mobile devices. We present a learning-based approach that uses customized auto zoom to automatically identify the human target and scale it appropriately. Thi…
