Our statistical analysis reveals a complementary phenomenon between large language model-based question answering (QA) and small model-based QA. To facilitate dual knowledge transfer between these two paradigms, this paper introduces a collaborative enhancement method of large and small models for q
Humans constantly reason about 3D proximity, the relations between their body and surrounding objects, to guide perception and action in daily life. Whether multimodal large language models (MLLMs) can perform such embodied 3D reasoning remains unclear. To this end, we introduce EgoProx, a benchmark
Annotated 3D scene data is scarce and expensive to acquire, while abundant unlabeled videos are readily available on the internet. In this paper, we demonstrate that carefully designed data engines can leverage web-curated, unlabeled videos to automatically generate training data, to facilitate end-
Recent Large Reasoning Models (LRMs) have demonstrated the ability to generate long chains of thought (LongCoT) before arriving at a final conclusion. Despite remarkable breakthroughs in complex reasoning capabilities, LongCoT still faces challenges such as redundancy and logical incoherence. To add
We introduce an approach that creates animatable human avatars from monocular videos using 3D Gaussian Splatting (3DGS). Existing methods based on neural radiance fields (NeRFs) achieve high-quality novel-view/novel-pose image synthesis but often require days of training and are extremely slow at in…
We present IntrinsicAvatar a novel approach to recovering the intrinsic properties of clothed human avatars including geometry albedo material and environment lighting from only monocular videos. Recent advancements in human-based neural rendering have enabled high-quality geometry and appearance re…
Recent advances in generative diffusion models have enabled the previously unfeasible capability of generating 3D assets from a single input image or a text prompt. In this work we aim to enhance the quality and functionality of these models for the task of creating controllable photorealistic human…
We present a novel method for populating 3D indoor scenes with virtual humans that can navigate in the environment and interact with objects in a realistic manner. Existing approaches rely on high-quality training sequences that contain captured human motions and the 3D scenes they interact with. Ho…
"Combining human body models with differentiable rendering has recently enabled animatable avatars of clothed humans from sparse sets of multi-view RGB videos. While state-of-the-art approaches achieve a realistic appearance with neural radiance fields (NeRF), the inferred geometry often lacks detai…
"Synthesizing natural interactions between virtual humans and their 3D environments is critical for numerous applications, such as computer games and AR/VR experiences. Recent methods mainly focus on modeling geometric relations between 3D environments and humans, where the high-level semantics of t…
Registering point clouds of dressed humans to parametric human models is a challenging task in computer vision. Traditional approaches often rely on heavily engineered pipelines that require accurate manual initialization of human poses and tedious post-processing. More recently, learning-based meth…
In this paper, we aim to create generalizable and controllable neural signed distance fields (SDFs) that represent clothed humans from monocular depth observations. Recent advances in deep learning, especially neural implicit representations, have enabled human shape reconstruction and controllable…
We present a novel approach to solve dynamic programs (DP), which are frequent in computer vision, on tree-structured graphs with exponential node state space. Typical DP approaches have to enumerate the joint state space of two adjacent nodes on every edge of the tree to compute the optimal message…
We study the problem of multi-target tracking and data association in video. We formulate this in terms of selecting a subset of high-quality tracks subject to the constraint that no pair of selected tracks is associated with a common detection (of an object). This objective is equivalent to the cla…
