π Too many links?! I created a database for all links mentioned in these emails. Refer 1 friend using this link and I'll send over the link database.
π Learn
- Learn Prompting - A documentation site teaching how to use prompts. (link)
π¬ Research
- Music2Vec - a self-supervised learning framework for learning useful representations of raw music waveforms. (link)
- NeuralUDF - for reconstructing surfaces with arbitrary topologies from 2D images via volume rendering. (link)
- Spatial diffusion model (SDM) for image inpainting uses a few iterations to deliver informative pixels to the entire image. (link)
- Adaptive Diffusion for Image Reconstruction (ADIR) exploits the prior learned by diffusion models while retaining agreement with the observations. (link)
- Universal Document Processing (UDOP), a foundation Document AI model that unifies text, image, and layout modalities with varied task formats. (link)
- M-VADER - a diffusion model for image generation that can be specified using arbitrary combinations of images and text. (link)
- How machine learning models can learn shortcuts to make correct predictions, and how input salience methods can be used to verify that models are not relying on such shortcuts. (link)
- RANA - photorealistic synthesis of humans under arbitrary viewpoints, body poses, and lighting. (link)
- A self-supervised approach for correspondence estimation that learns from multiview consistency in short RGB-D video sequences, which allows for correspondences to be obtained over longer time frames, increasing both the diversity and difficulty of sampled pairs. (link)
- A new approach to video understanding using a self-supervised learning method called InternVideo. (link)
- Reference-Based Non-Photorealistic Radiance Fields (Ref-NPR) is a controllable scene stylisation method that uses radiance fields and a stylised 2D view taken as reference to generate non-photorealistic and continuous novel view sequences with reasonable stylisation in occluded regions. (link)
- MoFusion - a framework for unified motion synthesis, which uses a Transformer backbone to ease the inclusion of diverse control signals and pretrains the backbone as a diffusion model. (link)
π€ Everything else
