In my recent blog post, I argue that "vision" is only well-defined as part of perception-action loops, and that the conventional view of computer vision - mapping imagery to intermediate representations (3D, flow, segmentation...) is about to go away. www.vincentsitzmann.com/blog/bitter_...

Announcing Diffusion Forcing Transformer (DFoT), our new video diffusion algorithm that generates ultra-long videos of 800+ frames. DFoT enables History Guidance, a simple add-on to any existing video diffusion models for a quality boost. Website: boyuan.space/history-guidance (1/7)

hey everyone - I am now also active here and excited about computer vision and machine learning stuff. 🎉

Friends in industry: As 2024 comes to a close, if your budget has room, consider joining the sponsors of the Summer Geometry Initiative (SGI)! SGI is entering year 5 with a proven track record bringing a diverse set of brilliant students into graphics/vision/ML/math research.

Hi NeurIPS crowd! Meet Boyuan Chen and I at the Diffusion Forcing poster today at 11 am, East Exhibit Hall A-C #2701! Concurrently, @justinmsolomon.bsky.social is jumping in for our student Artem to present "Score Distillation via Reparametrized DDIM" at #2402! - Artem had visa issues :(

If you are looking to do a PhD on inverse graphics, 3D computer vision, differentiable rendering, etc, please apply to Ayush's lab at the University of Cambridge! He is brilliant, very patient, and a kind human :)
