While users tend to perceive instructional videos as an experience rather than a lesson with a set of instructions, instructional videos are more effective and appealing than textual user manuals and eliminate the ambiguity in text-based…
Creating a vivid video from the event or scenario in our imagination is a truly fascinating experience. Recent advancements in text-to-video synthesis have unveiled the potential to achieve this with prompts only. While text is convenient…
Many everyday tasks, ranging from appliance repair and cooking to car maintenance, require expert knowledge, particularly for complex, multi-step procedures. Despite growing interest in AI agents for augmented reality (AR) assistance,…
The goal of this work is to generate step-by-step visual instructions in the form of a sequence of images, given an input image that provides the scene context and the sequence of textual instructions. This is a challenging problem as it…
Many everyday tasks ranging from fixing appliances, cooking recipes to car maintenance require expert knowledge, especially when tasks are complex and multi-step. Despite growing interest in AI agents, there is a scarcity of dialogue-video…
Tutorial videos are a valuable resource for people looking to learn new tasks. People often learn these skills by viewing multiple tutorial videos to get an overall understanding of a task by looking at different approaches to achieve the…
Many everyday tasks rely on external tutorials such as manuals and videos, requiring users to constantly switch between reading instructions and performing actions, which disrupts workflow and increases cognitive load. Augmented reality…
Virtual Reality (VR) has emerged as a powerful tool for workforce training, offering immersive, interactive, and risk-free environments that enhance skill acquisition, decision-making, and confidence. Despite its advantages, developing VR…
Excel is one of the most widely used productivity tools across domains, offering rich functionality but also overwhelming users with its complexity. This creates a persistent demand for tutorials to support effective usage. However, while…
This paper presents a versatile image-to-image visual assistant, PixWizard, designed for image generation, manipulation, and translation based on free-from language instructions. To this end, we tackle a variety of vision tasks into a…
Many application areas ranging from serious games for health to learning by demonstration in robotics, could benefit from large body movement datasets extracted from textual instructions accompanied by images. The interpretation of…
We introduce Goal-Conditioned Visual Navigation Instruction Generation (GoViG), a new task that aims to generate contextually coherent navigation instructions solely from egocentric visual observations of initial and goal states. Unlike…
Modern visual effects (VFX) software has made it possible for skilled artists to create imagery of virtually anything. However, the creation process remains laborious, complex, and largely inaccessible to everyday users. In this work, we…
Videos for mobile devices become the most popular access to share and acquire information recently. For the convenience of users' creation, in this paper, we present a system, namely MobileVidFactory, to automatically generate vertical…
We introduce $\textit{InteractiveVideo}$, a user-centric framework for video generation. Different from traditional generative approaches that operate based on user-provided images or text, our framework is designed for dynamic interaction,…
YouTube users looking for instructions for a specific task may spend a long time browsing content trying to find the right video that matches their needs. Creating a visual summary (abridged version of a video) provides viewers with a quick…
We present a new problem: grounding natural language instructions to mobile user interface actions, and create three new datasets for it. For full task evaluation, we create PIXELHELP, a corpus that pairs English instructions with actions…
Tutorial videos of mobile apps have become a popular and compelling way for users to learn unfamiliar app features. To make the video accessible to the users, video creators always need to annotate the actions in the video, including what…
Recent advances in generative diffusion models have enabled text-controlled synthesis of realistic and diverse images with impressive quality. Despite these remarkable advances, the application of text-to-image generative models in computer…
Generating videos for visual storytelling can be a tedious and complex process that typically requires either live-action filming or graphics animation rendering. To bypass these challenges, our key idea is to utilize the abundance of…
