Neural implicit surface reconstruction has become a new trend in reconstructing a detailed 3D shape from images. In previous methods, however, the 3D scene is only encoded by the MLPs which do not have an explicit 3D structure. To better…

Swarm robotics promises adaptability to unknown situations and robustness against failures. However, it still struggles with global tasks that require understanding the broader context in which the robots operate, such as identifying the…

The safe operation of autonomous vehicles (AVs) is highly dependent on their understanding of the surroundings. For this, the task of 3D semantic occupancy prediction divides the space around the sensors into voxels, and labels each voxel…
