Recent adapter-based CLIP tuning (e.g., Tip-Adapter) is a strong few-shot learner, achieving efficiency by caching support features for fast prototype matching. However, these methods rely on global uni-modal feature vectors, overlooking fine-grained patch relations and their structural alignment wi
The ability to apply a previously-learned skill (e.g., pushing) to a new task (context or object) is an important requirement for new-age robots. An attempt is made to solve this problem in this paper by proposing a deep meta-imitation learning framework comprising of an attentive-embedding net-work…
Human activity/behaviour monitoring and recognition is a key for facilitating humans robot interaction, and allows robots for a better scheduling of future operations. It is challenging and often addressed at different levels, such as human activity classification, future activity prediction and mon…
This paper proposes an end-to-end self-supervised feature representation network named Attentive Task-Net or AT-Net for video-based task imitation. The proposed AT-Net incorporates a novel multi-level spatial attention module to highlight spatial features corresponding to the intended task demonstra…
In this paper, we propose an unsupervised deep learning framework with Bayesian inference for improving the accuracy of per-pixel depth prediction from monocular RGB images. The proposed framework predicts confidence map along with depth and pose information for a given input image. The depth hypoth…
In this paper, we look into the problem of estimating per-pixel depth maps from unconstrained RGB monocular night-time images which is a difficult task that has not been addressed adequately in the literature. The state-of-the-art day-time depth estimation methods fail miserably when tested with nig…
Visual place recognition (VPR) - the act of recognizing a familiar visual place - becomes difficult when there is extreme environmental appearance change or viewpoint change. Particularly challenging is the scenario where both phenomena occur simultaneously, such as when returning for the first time…
This paper presents a deep network based unsupervised visual odometry system for 6-DoF camera pose estimation and finding dense depth map for its monocular view. The proposed network is trained using unlabeled binocular stereo image pairs and is shown to provide superior performance in depth and ego…
The place recognition problem comprises two distinct subproblems; recognizing a specific location in the world (“specific” or “ordinary” place recognition) and recognizing the type of place (place categorization). Both are important competencies for mobile robots and have each received significant a…
