Adapting Depth Anything to Adverse Imaging Conditions with Events

Robust depth estimation under dynamic and adverse lighting conditions is essential for robotic systems. Currently, depth foundation models, such as Depth Anything, achieve great success in ideal scenes but remain challenging under adverse imaging conditions such as extreme illumination and motion blur. These degradations corrupt the visual signals of frame cameras, weakening the discriminative features of frame-based depths across the spatial and temporal dimensions. Typically, existing approaches incorporate event cameras to leverage their high dynamic range and temporal resolution, aiming to compensate for corrupted frame features. However, such specialized fusion models are predominantly trained from scratch on domain-specific datasets, thereby failing to inherit the open-world knowledge and robust generalization inherent to foundation models. In this work, we propose ADAE, an event-guided spatiotemporal fusion framework for Depth Anything in degraded scenes. Our design is guided by two key insights: 1) Entropy-Aware Spatial Fusion. We adaptively merge frame-based and event-based features using an information entropy strategy to indicate illumination-induced degradation. 2) Motion-Guided Temporal Correction. We resort to the event-based motion cue to recalibrate ambiguous features in blurred regions. Under our unified framework, the two components are complementary to each other and jointly enhance Depth Anything under adverse imaging conditions. Extensive experiments have been performed to verify the superiority of the proposed method. Our code will be released upon acceptance.

ST-Gen4D: Embedding 4D Spatiotemporal Cognition into World Model for 4D Generation

Generative models have achieved success in producing apparently coherent 2D videos, but remain challenging in the physical world due to lack of 4D spatiotemporal scale. Typically, existing 4D generative models directly embed macro scale constraints to enhance overall spatiotemporal consistency. However, these methods only ensure global appearance coherence and fail to reveal the local dynamics of the physical world. Our insight is that global appearance structure and local dynamic topology empower 4D spatiotemporal cognition, thereby enabling 4D generation with spatiotemporal regularities. In this work, we propose ST-Gen4D, a 4D generation framework with 4D spatiotemporal cognition-based world model. Our model is guided by four key designs: 1) Spatiotemporal representation. We encode various modalities into multiple representations as a feature basis. 2) Spatiotemporal cognition. We sculpture these representations into global appearance graph and local dynamic graph, and fuse them via semantic-bridged spatiotemporal fusion to obtain a 4D cognition graph. 3) Spatiotemporal reasoning. We utilize a world model to derive future state based on the 4D cognition. 4) Spatiotemporal generation. We leverage the derived cognition as condition to guide latent diffusion for 4D Gaussian generation. By deeply integrating 4D intrinsic cognition with generative priors, our model guarantees the structural rationality and topological consistency of 4D generation. Moreover, we propose ST-4D datasets by aggregating public 4D datasets and self-built subset. Extensive experiments demonstrate the superiority of our ST-Gen4D across 3D and 4D generation tasks.

Category-Aware Transformer Network for Better Human-Object Interaction Detection

Human-Object Interactions (HOI) detection, which aims to localize a human and a relevant object while recognizing their interaction, is crucial for understanding a still image. Recently, transformer-based models have significantly advanced the progress of HOI detection. However, the capability of these models has not been fully explored since the Object Query of the model is always simply initialized as just zeros, which would affect the performance. In this paper, we try to study the issue of promoting transformer-based HOI detectors by initializing the Object Query with category-aware semantic information. To this end, we innovatively propose the Category-Aware Transformer Network (CATN). Specifically, the Object Query would be initialized via category priors represented by an external object detection model to yield better performance. Moreover, such category priors can be further used for enhancing the representation ability of features via the attention mechanism. We have firstly verified our idea via the Oracle experiment by initializing the Object Query with the groundtruth category information. And then extensive experiments have been conducted to show that a HOI detection model equipped with our idea outperforms the baseline by a large margin to achieve a new state-of-the-art result.

Effective Actor-centric Human-object Interaction Detection

While Human-Object Interaction(HOI) Detection has achieved tremendous advances in recent, it still remains challenging due to complex interactions with multiple humans and objects occurring in images, which would inevitably lead to ambiguities. Most existing methods either generate all human-object pair candidates and infer their relationships by cropped local features successively in a two-stage manner, or directly predict interaction points in a one-stage procedure. However, the lack of spatial configurations or reasoning steps of two- or one- stage methods respectively limits their performance in such complex scenes. To avoid this ambiguity, we propose a novel actor-centric framework. The main ideas are that when inferring interactions: 1) the non-local features of the entire image guided by actor position are obtained to model the relationship between the actor and context, and then 2) we use an object branch to generate pixel-wise interaction area prediction, where the interaction area denotes the object central area. Moreover, we also use an actor branch to get interaction prediction of the actor and propose a novel composition strategy based on center-point indexing to generate the final HOI prediction. Thanks to the usage of the non-local features and the partly-coupled property of the human-objects composition strategy, our proposed framework can detect HOI more accurately especially for complex images. Extensive experimental results show that our method achieves the state-of-the-art on the challenging V-COCO and HICO-DET benchmarks and is more robust especially in multiple persons and/or objects scenes.

High-Fidelity Variable-Rate Image Compression via Invertible Activation Transformation

Learning-based methods have effectively promoted the community of image compression. Meanwhile, variational autoencoder (VAE) based variable-rate approaches have recently gained much attention to avoid the usage of a set of different networks for various compression rates. Despite the remarkable performance that has been achieved, these approaches would be readily corrupted once multiple compression/decompression operations are executed, resulting in the fact that image quality would be tremendously dropped and strong artifacts would appear. Thus, we try to tackle the issue of high-fidelity fine variable-rate image compression and propose the Invertible Activation Transformation (IAT) module. We implement the IAT in a mathematical invertible manner on a single rate Invertible Neural Network (INN) based model and the quality level (QLevel) would be fed into the IAT to generate scaling and bias tensors. IAT and QLevel together give the image compression model the ability of fine variable-rate control while better maintaining the image fidelity. Extensive experiments demonstrate that the single rate image compression model equipped with our IAT module has the ability to achieve variable-rate control without any compromise. And our IAT-embedded model obtains comparable rate-distortion performance with recent learning-based image compression methods. Furthermore, our method outperforms the state-of-the-art variable-rate image compression method by a large margin, especially after multiple re-encodings.

Unsupervised Image Deraining: Optimization Model Driven Deep CNN

The deep convolutional neural network has achieved significant progress for single image rain streak removal. However, most of the data-driven learning methods are full-supervised or semi-supervised, unexpectedly suffering from significant performance drops when dealing with real rain. These data-driven learning methods are representative yet generalize poor for real rain. The opposite holds true for the model-driven unsupervised optimization methods. To overcome these problems, we propose a unified unsupervised learning framework which inherits the generalization and representation merits for real rain removal. Specifically, we first discover a simple yet important domain knowledge that directional rain streak is anisotropic while the natural clean image is isotropic, and formulate the structural discrepancy into the energy function of the optimization model. Consequently, we design an optimization model-driven deep CNN in which the unsupervised loss function of the optimization model is enforced on the proposed network for better generalization. In addition, the architecture of the network mimics the main role of the optimization models with better feature representation. On one hand, we take advantage of the deep network to improve the representation. On the other hand, we utilize the unsupervised loss of the optimization model for better generalization. Overall, the unsupervised learning framework achieves good generalization and representation: unsupervised training (loss) with only a few real rainy images (input) and physical meaning network (architecture). Extensive experiments on synthetic and real-world rain datasets show the superiority of the proposed method.
