Recent advances in multimodal agents have improved computer-use interaction and tool-usage, yet most existing systems remain reactive, optimizing actions in isolation without reasoning about future states or long-term goals. This limits…
In highway scenarios, an alert human driver will typically anticipate early cut-in/cut-out maneuvers of surrounding vehicles using visual cues mainly. Autonomous vehicles must anticipate these situations at an early stage too, to increase…
We propose to learn tasks directly from visual demonstrations by learning to predict the outcome of human and robot actions on an environment. We enable a robot to physically perform a human demonstrated task without knowledge of the…
Human action-anticipation methods predict what is the future action by observing only a few portion of an action in progress. This is critical for applications where computers have to react to human actions as early as possible such as…
Actions are more than just movements and trajectories: we cook to eat and we hold a cup to drink from it. A thorough understanding of videos requires going beyond appearance modeling and necessitates reasoning about the sequence of…
Predicting future human behavior is an increasingly popular topic in computer vision, driven by the interest in applications such as autonomous vehicles, digital assistants and human-robot interactions. The literature on behavior prediction…

In this paper, we introduce the concept of learning latent super-events from activity videos, and present how it benefits activity detection in continuous videos. We define a super-event as a set of multiple events occurring together in…
Future human action forecasting from partial observations of activities is an important problem in many practical applications such as assistive robotics, video surveillance and security. We present a method to forecast actions for the…
Early action prediction seeks to anticipate an action before it fully unfolds, but limited visual evidence makes this task especially challenging. We introduce EAST, a simple and efficient framework that enables a model to reason about…
