4D point cloud segmentation is crucial for autonomous driving with continuous LiDAR streams. While test-time adaptation (TTA) is the standard approach for handling dynamic environments, current methods suffer from catastrophic error accumulation due to over-reliance on pseudo-labels. Active learning
Precise Event Spotting aims to localize fast-paced actions or events in videos with high temporal precision, a key task for applications in sports analytics, robotics, and autonomous systems. Existing methods typically process all frames uniformly, overlooking the inherent spatio-temporal redundancy
Current Video Moment Retrieval (VMR) models are trained on videos paired with captions, which are written by annotators after watching the videos. These captions are used as textual queries---which we term caption-based queries. This annotation process induces a visual bias, leading to overly descri
Generating realistic human-human interactions is a challenging task that requires not only high-quality individual body and hand motions, but also coherent coordination among all interactants. Due to limitations in available data and increased learning complexity, previous methods tend to ignore han
Existing 4D human datasets fall short for fashion-specific research, lacking either realistic garment dynamics or task-specific annotations. Synthetic datasets suffer from a realism gap, whereas real-world captures lack the detailed annotations and paired data required for virtual try-on (VTON) and
In extended reality (XR), generating full-body motion of the users is important to understand their actions, drive their virtual avatars for social interaction, and convey a realistic sense of presence. While prior works focused on spatially sparse and always-on input signals from motion controllers…
Training-free Neural Architecture Search (NAS) efficiently identifies high-performing neural networks using zero-cost (ZC) proxies. Unlike multi-shot and one-shot NAS approaches, ZC-NAS is both (i) time-efficient, eliminating the need for model training, and (ii) interpretable, with proxy designs of…
The rising interest in leveraging higher-order interactions present in complex systems has led to a surge in more expressive models exploiting higher-order structures in the data, especially in topological deep learning (TDL), which designs neural networks on higher-order domains such as simplicial…
Generating human motion guided by conditions such as textual descriptions is challenging due to the need for datasets with pairs of high-quality motion and their corresponding conditions. The difficulty increases when aiming for finer control in the generation. To that end, prior works have proposed…
Unified detection of digital and physical attacks in facial recognition systems has become a focal point of research in recent years. However, current multi-modal methods typically ignore the intra-class and inter-class variability across different types of attacks, leading to degraded performance.…
Video Temporal Grounding (VTG) involves Moment Retrieval (MR) and Highlight Detection (HD) based on textual queries. For this, most methods rely solely on final-layer features of frozen large pre-trained backbones, limiting their adaptability to new domains. While full fine-tuning is often impractic…
The ability to detect unfamiliar or unexpected images is essential for safe deployment of computer vision systems. In the context of classification the task of detecting images outside of a model's training domain is known as out-of-distribution (OOD) detection. While there has been a growing resear…
"We present Agglomerative Token Clustering (ATC), a novel token merging method that consistently outperforms previous token merging and pruning methods across image classification, image synthesis, and object detection & segmentation tasks. ATC merges clusters through bottom-up hierarchical clusteri…
Domain generalization (DG) based Face Anti-Spoofing (FAS) aims to improve the model's performance on unseen domains. Existing methods either rely on domain labels to align domain-invariant feature spaces or disentangle generalizable features from the whole sample which inevitably lead to the distort…
Conditional human motion generation is an important topic with many applications in virtual reality gaming and robotics. While prior works have focused on generating motion guided by text music or scenes these typically result in isolated motions confined to short durations. Instead we address the g…
Face Recognition (FR) systems can suffer from physical (i.e., print photo) and digital (i.e., DeepFake) attacks. However, previous related work rarely considers both situations at the same time. This implies the deployment of multiple models and thus more computational burden. The main reasons for t…
The landscape of deep learning research is moving towards innovative strategies to harness the true potential of data. Traditionally emphasis has been on scaling model architectures resulting in large and complex neural networks which can be difficult to train with limited computational resources. H…
Stochastic human motion prediction (HMP) has generally been tackled with generative adversarial networks and variational autoencoders. Most prior works aim at predicting highly diverse motion in terms of the skeleton joints' dispersion. This has led to methods predicting fast and divergent movements…
Cinemagraphs are short looping videos created by adding subtle motions to a static image. This kind of media is popular and engaging. However, automatic generation of cinemagraphs is an underexplored area and current solutions require tedious low-level manual authoring by artists. In this paper, we…
Sign Language Translation (SLT) is a challenging task due to its cross-domain nature, involving the translation of visual-gestural language to text. Many previous methods employ an intermediate representation,i.e., gloss sequences, to facilitate SLT, thus transforming it into a two-stage task of sig…

The flexibility and high-accuracy of Deep Neural Networks (DNNs) has transformed computer vision. But, the fact that we do not know when a specific DNN will work and when it will fail has resulted in a lack of trust. A clear example is self-driving cars; people are uncomfortable sitting in a car dri…
