Feb 2025 New release from the team: VaViM & VaVAM. VaViM is a 1.2B parameter video generative model trained on 1,800+ hours of raw Youtube videos. Its derived video-action model, VaVAM, achieves state-of-the-art results on NeuroNCAP driving benchmark. We open-source code, model weights, training recipes and scaling laws.
Feb 2025 New preprint: GaussRender. A plug-and-play 3D-to-2D reprojection loss using Gaussian splatting enhances 3D semantic occupancy learning from multiple cameras.
Jan 2025 Annealed Winner-Takes-All for Motion Forecasting is accepted at ICRA 2025. We show that using an annealing loss enhances training stability and performance of state-of-the-art trajectory prediction models.
Jan 2025 LLM-wrapper is accepted at ICLR 2025. It shows that LLMs can learn to adapt black-box VLMs for new tasks and domains, by wrapping and reasoning on the vision models’ outputs.
Dec 2024 New preprint: PPT. Pre-training trajectory prediction models with pseudo-labeled trajectories improves performance, efficiency, and generalization.
Nov 2024 New preprint :gift:: GIFT. A framework for generating global, interpretable textual explanations of vision classifiers, combining counterfactual visual explanations with VLMs and LLMs.
