What roles can "Geometry" play nowadays in this large model era? What are the current difficulties and future opportunities? Check out ECCV 2024 workshop "Geometry in Large Model Era"! 📍 Sep. 30 PM, Brown 3 🔗 geo-lme.github.io

Excited to see the latest research in visual computing European Conference on Computer Vision #ECCV2026? Our team from the GrUVi lab will once again have a good show at #ECCV, with 9 technical papers! Don't miss their workshops too! See you in Milan. eccv2024.ecva.net gruvi.cs.sfu.ca #ECCV2024 #SFU

LMs are costly, still lacking “geometry” (spatial) intelligence, unless cleverly prompted or CoTed. Their success should not tame our desire to seek better 3D reps. Babies do not learn by only seeing photos+caps; they learn by interacting in 3D. Smartize w/ few 3D training data.

Learning part motions from real images is challenging due to data limitation. Today at #ECCV2024 (10/3, 4:30PM, #41) I will present our work, Active Coarse-to-Fine Segmentation of Moveable Parts from Real Images. Hao (Richard) Zhang

For the first time in my life I can explain what the physics The Nobel Prize is about! In fact, if you’d like to learn what is a Hopfield net and how it relates to NP hard satisfiability, Boltzmann machines, autoencoders, score matching, Maxwell demons, maximum likelihood,

We invite applications for two tenure-track faculty positions at the rank of Assistant or Associate Professor. The School has preference for candidates specializing in these areas: cybersecurity, natural language processing, and software engineering. ow.ly/PvmQ50U2Amj

Looking forward to #NeurIPS2024, happening right here in #Vancouver, BC, from Dec. 10-15. Simon Fraser University Computing Science is proud to have 7 papers at this year's conference! ow.ly/jqaN50UnYxy

#SIGGRAPH2025 Technical Papers deadline (Jan. 23) is fast approaching. New this year, compared to 2024, is the mandatory abstract and submission form deadline of Jan. 16. No new submissions can be created after this date. Please do not miss it! I look forward to your submissions!

In the past, we extended the convolution operator to go from low-level image processing to high-level visual reasoning. Can we also extend physical operators for more high-level physical reasoning? Introducing the Denoising Hamiltonian Network (DHN): arxiv.org/pdf/2503.07596

AI Agents vs. Agentic AI Interesting paper summarizing distinctions between AI Agents and Agentic AI. It also talks about the key ideas, solutions, and the future. Here are my notes:

🚨 BREAKING: NVIDIA JUST announced roadmap for physical AI, robotics and national-scale AI factories. Here’s a breakdown of the top important announcements: 🧵👇 1. DeepSeek R1 is now 4x faster, setting the standard for AI in inference and reasoning.

Professor Richard Zhang has been inducted into the Association for Computing Machinery's ACM SIGGRAPH Academy! This prestigious recognition honors individuals who have made outstanding contributions to the field of computer graphics and interactive techniques. Congrats, Richard! ow.ly/bp5V50VYSpn
