I am in Vancouver at ICML, and tomorrow I will present our newest paper "Partially Observable Reinforcement Learning with Memory Traces". We argue that eligibility traces are more effective than sliding windows as a memory mechanism for RL in POMDPs. ๐งต

Excited to present our #CVPR2025 paper DepthSplat next week! DepthSplat is a feed-forward model that achieves high-quality Gaussian reconstruction and view synthesis in just 0.6 seconds. Looking forward to great conversations at the conference!
๐ Introducing DepthSplat: a framework that connects Gaussian splatting with single- and multi-view depth estimation. This enables robust depth modeling and high-quality view synthesis with state-of-the-art results on ScanNet, RealEstate10K, and DL3DV. ๐ haofeixu.github.io/depthsplat/
๐ Pseudo-simulation combines the efficiency of open-loop and robustness of closed-loop evaluation. It uses real data + 3D Gaussian Splatting synthetic views to assess error recovery, achieving strong correlation with closed-loop simulations while requiring 6x less compute. arxiv.org/abs/2506.04218
