Many advanced driver assistance schemes or autonomous vehicle controllers are based on a motion model of the vehicle behavior, i.e., a function predicting how the vehicle will react to a given control input. Data-driven models, based on…

Latent traversal is a popular approach to visualize the disentangled latent representations. Given a bunch of variations in a single unit of the latent representation, it is expected that there is a change in a single factor of variation of…

An "elephant in the room" for most current object detection and localization methods is the lack of explicit modelling of partial visibility due to occlusion by other objects or truncation by the image boundary. Based on a sliding window…

Roughly speaking, Buckingham's $\Pi$-Theorem provides a method to "guess" the structure of physical formulas simply by studying the dimensions (the physical units) of the involved quantities. Here we will prove a quantitative version of…
