A recent class of hyperspectral anomaly detection methods can be trained once on background datasets and then deployed universally without per-scene retraining or parameter tuning, showing strong efficiency and robustness. Building upon…
Scratch is the most popular programming environment for novices, with over 1.15 billion projects created worldwide. Unlike traditional languages, correctness in Scratch is defined by visible behavior on the stage rather than by code…
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…
The development of video large multimodal models (LMMs) has been hindered by the difficulty of curating large amounts of high-quality raw data from the web. To address this, we propose an alternative approach by creating a high-quality…
Scribble-guided image editing allows users to combine simple scribble annotations with text prompts to specify both where and how an image should be edited, enabling flexible interaction with precise spatial control. However, existing…
Change detection has been a challenging visual task due to the dynamic nature of real-world scenes. Good performance of existing methods depends largely on prior background images or a long-term observation. These methods, however, suffer…
The convergence of 3D geometric perception and video synthesis has created an unprecedented demand for large-scale video data that is rich in both semantic and spatio-temporal information. While existing datasets have advanced either 3D…
