Over the past few years, there has been a rapid increase in several computer vision and computer graphics-related fields, especially surface reconstruction. The primary goal of this ever-changing field in 3D scanning is to efficiently recreate surfaces from given point clouds while meeting specific quality criteria. These algorithms aim to estimate the underlying geometry of…

Open-vocabulary object detection is a critical aspect of various real-world computer vision tasks. However, the limited availability of detection training data and the fragility of pre-trained models often lead to subpar performance and scalability issues. To tackle this challenge, the DeepMind research team introduces the OWLv2 model in their latest paper, “Scaling Open-Vocabulary Object Detection.”…

Artificial Intelligence is evolving with the introduction of Generative AI and Large Language Models (LLMs). Well-known models like GPT, BERT, PaLM, etc., are some great additions to the long list of LLMs that are transforming how humans and computers interact. In image generation, diffusion models have gained significant attention from researchers as these models capture…

ChatHN, driven by AI, has recently been launched in the Hacker News Feed. ChatHN is a free and open-source artificial intelligence (AI) chatbot built with OpenAI Functions and the Vercel AI SDK for conversational interactions with the Hacker News API. Using the instructions at https://github.com/steven-tey/chathn, anyone may deploy their instance of ChatHN with a single…

These days, we can’t imagine life without email. Learning about the various trustworthy email service providers is crucial. People spend hours a day checking business and personal email. Despite its usefulness and efficiency, email has serious security flaws. Not if you’re working with a mainstream service like Gmail or Outlook. Email is a major entry…

Large Language Models have transformed Natural Language Processing by showcasing amazing skills like emergence and grokking and driving model size to increase continually. The bar for NLP research is raised by training these models with billions of parameters, such as those with 30B to 175B parameters. It is challenging for small labs and businesses to…

With its release in November 2022, ChatGPT has completely changed how we interact with and use AI models. Its use cases range from biotechnology and drug development all the way to marketing. Needless to say, ChatGPT has had an impact on almost every field since its inception. This article talks about some use cases of…

Telepresence, virtual try-on, video games, and many more applications that depend on high-fidelity digital humans require the ability to simulate appealing and realistic clothing behavior. Using simulations based on physical laws is a popular method for producing natural dynamic movements. While physical simulation may provide amazing results, it is expensive to compute, sensitive to beginning…

Meta AI, a leading artificial intelligence (AI) research organization, has recently unveiled a groundbreaking algorithm that promises to revolutionize the field of robotics. In their research paper titled “Affordances from Human Videos as a Versatile Representation for Robotics,” the authors explore the application of YouTube videos as a powerful training tool for robots to learn…
