Existing 3D Visual Question Answering (3D-VQA) methods rely on generative paradigms, producing ambiguous descriptions that hinder deterministic decision-making. We introduce 3D Scene Assertion Verification, a task requiring models to verify natural language assertions in 3D scenes with strict binary…
Aerial manipulator systems (AMSs) have significantly progressed in air-ground collaborative tasks. Deploying high-stiffness and high-torque manipulators in AMSs can enhance operational robustness, enabling the execution of more demanding tasks such as high-altitude platforms operation, post-disaster
Dexterous grasping remains a fundamental yet challenging problem in robotics. A general-purpose robot must be capable of grasping diverse objects in arbitrary scenarios. However, existing research typically relies on restrictive assumptions, such as single-object settings or limited environments, sh
Basketball players catch fast passes, and porters unload goods with apparent ease. These actions demonstrate how humans rely on intelligent regulation strategies to drive muscle activity. Replicating similar dynamic responses and strong impact absorption in robotics, however, remains a major challen…
Abstraction is an important and useful concept in the field of artificial intelligence. To the best of our knowledge, there is no syntactic method to compute a sound and complete abstraction from a given low-level basic action theory and a refinement mapping. This paper aims to address this issue. T…
Drifting is an advanced driving technique where the wheeled robot’s tire-ground interaction breaks the common non-holonomic pure rolling constraint. This allows high-maneuverability tasks like quick cornering, and steady-state drifting control enhances motion stability under lateral slip conditions.
Novel view synthesis of dynamic scenes has been an intriguing yet challenging problem. Despite recent advancements simultaneously achieving high-resolution photorealistic results real-time rendering and compact storage remains a formidable task. To address these challenges we propose Spacetime Gauss…
Despite the impressive performance obtained by recent single-image hand modeling techniques, they lack the capability to capture sufficient details of the 3D hand mesh. This deficiency greatly limits their applications when high fidelity hand modeling is required, e.g., personalized hand modeling. T…
We present a novel type of neural fields that uses general radial bases for signal representation. State-of-the-art neural fields typically rely on grid-based representations for storing local neural features and N-dimensional linear kernels for interpolating features at continuous query points. The…
Recently, many excellent weakly supervised semantic segmentation (WSSS) works are proposed based on class activation mapping (CAM). However, there are few works that consider the characteristics of medical images. In this paper, we find that there are mainly two challenges of medical images in WSSS:…
Keeping balance is one of the most important tasks of a motorcycle. The steady-state manifold is proposed in this paper to explore the inherent dynamics and the balance properties of a riderless motorcycle. The dynamic and kinematic characteristics are analyzed based on the manifold and are validate…
This letter studies the problem of air-to-air visual detection of micro unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) by monocular cameras. This problem is important for many applications such as vision-based swarming of UAVs, malicious UAV detection, and see-and-avoid systems for UAVs. Although deep learning met
We introduce Multiresolution Deep Implicit Functions (MDIF), a hierarchical representation that can recover fine geometry detail, while being able to perform global operations such as shape completion. Our model represents a complex 3D shape with a hierarchy of latent grids, which can be decoded int…
We present a novel Relightable Neural Renderer (RNR) for simultaneous view synthesis and relighting using multi-view image inputs. Existing neural rendering (NR) does not explicitly model the physical rendering process and hence has limited capabilities on relighting. RNR instead models image format…
We present a single-image 3D face synthesis technique that can handle challenging facial expressions while recovering fine geometric details. Our technique employs expression analysis for proxy face geometry generation and combines supervised and unsupervised learning for facial detail synthesis. On…
We present a novel 3D face reconstruction technique that leverages sparse photometric stereo (PS) and latest advances on face registration / modeling from a single image. We observe that 3D morphable faces approach provides a reasonable geometry proxy for light position calibration. Specifically, we…
