Nearly all existing counting methods are designed for a specific object class. Our work, however, aims to create a counting model able to count any class of object. To achieve this goal, we formulate counting as a matching problem, enabling…
Object counting, whose aim is to estimate the number of objects from a given image, is an important and challenging computation task. Significant efforts have been devoted to addressing this problem and achieved great progress, yet counting…

We introduce the new setting of open-vocabulary object 6D pose estimation, in which a textual prompt is used to specify the object of interest. In contrast to existing approaches, in our setting (i) the object of interest is specified…
This paper aims to tackle the challenging task of one-shot object counting. Given an image containing novel, previously unseen category objects, the goal of the task is to count all instances in the desired category with only one supporting…
How can a robot quickly identify and recognize new objects shown to it during a human demonstration? Existing closed-set object detectors frequently fail at this because the objects are out-of-distribution. While open-set detectors (e.g.,…
Common object counting in a natural scene is a challenging problem in computer vision with numerous real-world applications. Existing image-level supervised common object counting approaches only predict the global object count and rely on…
