Abstract:  Humans are incredibly dexterous. We interact with and manipulate tools effortlessly, leveraging touch without a second thought. Yet, replicating this level of dexterity in robots is a major challenge. While the robotics community, recognizing the importance of touch in fine manipulation, has developed a wide variety of tactile sensors, how best to leverage these [...]

Abstract:  While image understanding, generation, and manipulation have matured rapidly in recent years, video remains challenging due to the significantly larger input size. As a result, tasks such as generating long videos or understanding extended video sequences remain out of reach for current models due to their computational cost. This talk presents a series of [...]
