Given the remarkable performance of diffusion models in image generation, recent research has been exploring their adaptation to style transfer. However, current diffusion-based approaches encounter persistent challenges, such as style distortions and the reliance on textual prompts for content pres
"WiFi-based human sensing has exhibited remarkable potential to analyze user behaviors in a non-intrusive and device-free manner, benefiting applications as diverse as smart homes and healthcare. However, most previous works focus on single-user sensing, which has limited practicability in scenarios…
Weakly-supervised Temporal Action Localization (WTAL) aims at localizing actions in untrimmed videos with only video-level labels. Most existing methods embrace a "localization by classification" paradigm and adopt a model that pre-trained with recognition task for feature extraction. The gap betwee…
Event cameras produce streams of events with high temporal resolution which do not suffer from motion blur. Current deep networks achieve high-quality video reconstruction from events, but most of them are large and difficult to interpret. In this work, we present a solution to this problem by syste…
"Unsupervised anomaly detection on image data is notoriously unstable. We believe this is because many classical anomaly detectors implicitly assume data is low dimensional. However, image data is always high dimensional. Images can be projected to a low dimensional embedding but such projections re…
SLAM (Simultaneous Localization And Mapping) seeks to provide a moving agent with real-time self-localization. To achieve real-time speed, SLAM incrementally propagates position estimates. This makes SLAM fast but also makes it vulnerable to local pose estimation failures. As local pose estimation i…
Many high dimensional vector distances tend to a constant. This is typically considered a negative “contrast-loss” phenomenon that hinders clustering and other machine learning techniques. We reinterpret “contrast-loss” as a blessing. Re-deriving “contrast-loss” using the law of large numbers, we sh…
In this work, we investigate the problem of automatically inferring the lattice structure of near-regular textures (NRT) in real-world images. Our technique leverages the PatchMatch algorithm for finding k-nearest-neighbor (kNN) correspondences in an image. We use these kNNs to recover an initial es…
