Most models tasked to ground referential utterances in 2D and 3D scenes learn to select the referred object from a pool of object proposals provided by a pre-trained detector. This is limiting because an utterance may refer to visual…
Text image machine translation (TIMT) aims to translate texts embedded in images from one source language to another target language. Existing methods, both two-stage cascade and one-stage end-to-end architectures, suffer from different…
Reasoning machine reading comprehension (R-MRC) aims to answer complex questions that require discrete reasoning based on text. To support discrete reasoning, evidence, typically the concise textual fragments that describe question-related…
Traditional semantic image search methods aim to retrieve images that match the meaning of the text query. However, these methods typically search for objects on the whole image, without considering the localization of objects within the…
In this paper, we propose a novel query design for the transformer-based object detection. In previous transformer-based detectors, the object queries are a set of learned embeddings. However, each learned embedding does not have an…
Continual learning allows a model to learn multiple tasks sequentially while retaining the old knowledge without the training data of the preceding tasks. This paper extends the scope of continual learning research to class-incremental…
Multimodal Large Language Models have advanced visual reasoning, yet a purely textual chain of thought remains a bottleneck for questions that require fine-grained focus or view transformations. The ''think with images'' paradigm narrows…
