Detecting anomalies in human-related videos is crucial for surveillance applications. Current methods primarily include appearance-based and action-based techniques. Appearance-based methods rely on low-level visual features such as color,…
We introduce the task of weakly supervised learning for detecting human and object interactions in videos. Our task poses unique challenges as a system does not know what types of human-object interactions are present in a video or the…
In this work, we propose an approach for detecting conversation groups in social scenarios like cocktail parties and networking events, from overhead camera recordings. We posit the detection of conversation groups as a learning problem…
Event camera is an asynchronous, high frequency vision sensor with low power consumption, which is suitable for human action understanding task. It is vital to encode the spatial-temporal information of event data properly and use standard…
Videos provide a rich source of information, but it is generally hard to extract dynamical parameters of interest. Inferring those parameters from a video stream would be beneficial for physical reasoning. Robots performing tasks in dynamic…
Distilling knowledge from human demonstrations is a promising way for robots to learn and act. Existing methods, which often rely on coarsely-aligned video pairs, are typically constrained to learning global or task-level features. As a…

Humans effortlessly identify objects by leveraging a rich understanding of the surrounding scene, including spatial relationships, material properties, and the co-occurrence of other objects. In contrast, most computational object…
Humans can easily segment moving objects without knowing what they are. That objectness could emerge from continuous visual observations motivates us to model grouping and movement concurrently from unlabeled videos. Our premise is that a…
Studies in human human interaction have introduced the concept of F formation to describe the spatial arrangement of participants during social interactions. This paper has two objectives. It aims at detecting F formations in video…
This paper addresses the task of segmenting moving objects in unconstrained videos. We introduce a novel two-stream neural network with an explicit memory module to achieve this. The two streams of the network encode spatial and temporal…
Amodal perception terms the ability of humans to imagine the entire shapes of occluded objects. This gives humans an advantage to keep track of everything that is going on, especially in crowded situations. Typical perception functions,…
