The ability to handle contact makes robots qualified for many complicated tasks, such as welding, hammering, and wiping. Robot cameras facilitate position planning and control without the geometric knowledge of contact surfaces since they can project contact surfaces onto a 2-dimensional image plane…
Weight initialization plays an important role in neural network training. Widely used initialization methods are proposed and evaluated for networks that are trained from scratch. However, the growing number of pretrained models now offers new opportunities for tackling this classical problem of wei…
Referring expression comprehension aims to localize the object instance described by a natural language expression. Current referring expression methods have achieved good performance. However, none of them is able to achieve real-time inference without accuracy drop. The reason for the relatively s…
We propose a single-stage Human-Object Interaction (HOI) detection method that has outperformed all existing methods on HICO-DET dataset at 37 fps on a single Titan XP GPU. It is the first real-time HOI detection method. Conventional HOI detection methods are composed of two stages, i.e., human-obje…
The growing scale of face recognition datasets empowers us to train strong convolutional networks for face recognition. While a variety of architectures and loss functions have been devised, we still have a limited understanding of the source and consequence of label noise inherent in existing datas…
Flexible serpentine manipulators are widely used in surgical robots as it can be operated inside the patient's body cavity by backbone bending. However, during the bending the manipulator sweeps over a region, where sensitive organs may locate. This raises the safety concern. In this paper, a motion…
