ThinkingViT: Matryoshka Thinking Vision Transformer for Elastic Inference

CVPR 2026

ViTs deliver SOTA performance, yet their fixed computational budget prevents scalable deployment across heterogeneous hardware. Recent Matryoshka-style Transformer architectures mitigate this by embedding nested subnetworks within a single model to enable scalable inference. However, these models al

Carve3D: Improving Multi-view Reconstruction Consistency for Diffusion Models with RL Finetuning

CVPR 2024poster

Multi-view diffusion models obtained by applying Supervised Finetuning (SFT) to text-to-image diffusion models have driven recent breakthroughs in text-to-3D research. However due to the limited size and quality of existing 3D datasets they still suffer from multi-view inconsistencies and Neural Rad…

3DMiner: Discovering Shapes from Large-Scale Unannotated Image Datasets

ICCV 2023poster

We present 3DMiner -- a pipeline for mining 3D shapes from challenging large-scale unannotated image datasets. Unlike other unsupervised 3D reconstruction methods, we assume that, within a large-enough dataset, there must exist images of objects with similar shapes but varying backgrounds, textures,…

Instance Segmentation with Cross-Modal Consistency

IROS 2022poster

Segmenting object instances is a key task in machine perception, with safety-critical applications in robotics and autonomous driving. We introduce a novel approach to instance segmentation that jointly leverages measurements from multiple sensor modalities, such as cameras and LiDAR. Our method lea…

Socially CompliAnt Navigation Dataset (SCAND): A Large-Scale Dataset of Demonstrations for Social Navigation

RA-L 2022

Social navigation is the capability of an autonomous agent, such as a robot, to navigate in a “socially compliant” manner in the presence of other intelligent agents such as humans. With the emergence of autonomously navigating mobile robots in human-populated environments (e.g., domestic service ro

Online Learning of Object Representations by Appearance Space Feature Alignment

ICRA 2020poster

We propose a self-supervised approach for learning representations of objects from monocular videos and demonstrate it is particularly useful for robotics. The main contributions of this paper are: 1) a self-supervised model called Object-Contrastive Network (OCN) that can discover and disentangle o…
