The task of talking head generation is to synthesize a lip synchronized talking head video by inputting an arbitrary face image and audio clips. Most existing methods ignore the local driving information of the mouth muscles. In this paper,…
Typical end-to-end formulations for learning robotic navigation involve predicting a small set of steering command actions (e.g., step forward, turn left, turn right, etc.) from images of the current state (e.g., a bird's-eye view of a SLAM…
To have a robot actively supporting a human during a collaborative task, it is crucial that robots are able to identify the current action in order to predict the next one. Common approaches make use of high-level knowledge, such as object…
