DualMap: Online Open-Vocabulary Semantic Mapping for Natural Language Navigation in Dynamic Changing Scenes

ICRA 2026poster

We introduce DualMap, an online open-vocabulary mapping system that enables robots to understand and navigate dynamically changing environments through natural language queries. Designed for efficient semantic mapping and adaptability to changing environments, DualMap meets the essential requirement…

PBCAT: Patch-Based Composite Adversarial Training against Physically Realizable Attacks on Object Detection

ICCV 2025poster

Object detection plays a crucial role in many security-sensitive applications, such as autonomous driving and video surveillance. However, several recent studies have shown that object detectors can be easily fooled by physically realizable attacks, e.g., adversarial patches and recent adversarial t…

Blind Face Restoration under Extreme Conditions: Leveraging 3D-2D Prior Fusion for Superior Structural and Texture Recovery

AAAI 2024technical

Blind face restoration under extreme conditions involves reconstructing high-quality face images from severely degraded inputs. These input images are often in poor quality and have extreme facial poses, leading to errors in facial structure and unnatural artifacts within the restored images. In thi…

Make Encoder Great Again in 3D GAN Inversion through Geometry and Occlusion-Aware Encoding

ICCV 2023poster

3D GAN inversion aims to achieve high reconstruction fidelity and reasonable 3D geometry simultaneously from a single image input. However, existing 3D GAN inversion methods rely on time-consuming optimization for each individual case. In this work, we introduce a novel encoder-based inversion frame…

ER-PIQA: A Task-Guided Pedestrian Image Quality Assessment Via Embedding Reconstruction

ICASSP 2022accepted

Image quality is an important factor for pedestrian recognition systems. Pedestrian image quality assessment aims at evaluating images in order to provide more reliable and stable images for the following analysis process. Previous work proposed supervised solutions that require artificially or manu…

One Model to Edit Them All: Free-Form Text-Driven Image Manipulation with Semantic Modulations

NeurIPS 2022accept

Free-form text prompts allow users to describe their intentions during image manipulation conveniently. Based on the visual latent space of StyleGAN[21] and text embedding space of CLIP[34], studies focus on how to map these two latent spaces for text-driven attribute manipulations. Currently, the l…
