Class distribution mismatch (CDM) refers to the discrepancy between class distributions in training data and target tasks. Previous methods address this by designing classifiers to categorize classes known during training, while grouping unknown or new classes into an "other" category. However, they…
Hot-NetVLAD implements a hot-spot detector on a learned local key-patch descriptor algorithm for Visual Place Recognition (VPR), thereby greatly cutting down the size of features extracted. The hot-spots pinpoint which regions are crucial for comparison when performing VPR. As hot-spots land on only

Post-training quantization (PTQ), which only requires a tiny dataset for calibration without end-to-end retraining, is a light and practical model compression technique. Recently, several PTQ schemes for vision transformers (ViTs) have been presented; unfortunately, they typically suffer from non-tr…
"Vision transformers have recently gained great success on various computer vision tasks; nevertheless, their high model complexity makes it challenging to deploy on resource-constrained devices. Quantization is an effective approach to reduce model complexity, and data-free quantization, which can…
Many indoor spaces have constantly changing layouts and may not be mapped by an autonomous vehicle, yet maps such as floor plans or evacuation maps of these places are common. We propose a method for an autonomous robot to localize itself on such maps with inconsistent scale using Stochastic Gradien…
