Zero-Shot Compositional Image Retrieval (ZS-CIR) requires both preserving the visual continuity of the reference image and faithfully executing the semantic variables specified in the modification text, which constitutes the core challenge of the tas... read more
Vision-Language Models (VLMs) excel at tasks like zero-shot classification and cross-modal retrieval by mapping images and text to a shared space, but this requires expensive end-to-end training with massive paired datasets. Current post-hoc alignmen... read more
Fine-grained semantic segmentation requires both precise localization and discrimination between visually similar classes. In FungiTastic, this problem is further complicated by a long-tailed distribution and strong variation in image acquisition con... read more
Multimodal Large Language Models (MLLMs) have made rapid progress in spatial intelligence, yet existing spatial reasoning benchmarks largely assume pristine visual inputs and overlook the degradations that commonly occur in real-world deployment, suc... read more
Deep learning has brought significant progress to medical image classification, yet most existing methods still rely on isolated visual evidence and cannot effectively leverage similar cases or external knowledge. In clinical practice, diagnosis is t... read more
Fashion image retrieval is a cornerstone of modern e-commerce systems. A unified framework that supports diverse query formats and search intentions is highly desired in practice. However, existing approaches focus on narrow retrieval tasks and do no... read more
Training Deep Neural Networks for tracking individual cells in biomedical videos requires a large amount of annotated data. The annotation of videos for cell tracking is very time consuming and often requires domain expertise; this explains the limit... read more
Spatio-temporal reasoning is a core capability for Multimodal Large Language Models (MLLMs) operating in the real world. As such, evaluating it precisely has become an essential challenge. However, existing spatio-temporal reasoning benchmark dataset... read more
Accurate segmentation of brain tumour sub-regions from multi-parametric MRI is critical for treatment planning yet remains challenging due to morphological variability, class imbalance, and overlapping appearances of tumour regions across imaging seq... read more
Many public buildings provide floorplans with a "you are here" indicator to help visitors orient themselves. Floorplan localization seeks to computationally replicate this capability by determining where visual observations were captured within a flo... read more
