VastTrack: Vast Category Visual Object Tracking
V astTrack consists of a few attractive properties: (1) V ast Object Category . In particular, it covers targets from 2,115 categories, significantly surpassing object classes of existing popular benchmarks ( e.g ., GOT -10k with 563 classes and LaSOT with 70 categories). Through providing such vast object classes, we expect to learn more general object tracking.
B'MOJO: Hybrid State Space Realizations of Foundation Models with Eidetic and Fading Memory
We leverage ideas from Stochastic Realization Theory to develop a class of models called B'MOJO to seamlessly combine eidetic and fading memory within an elementary composable module. The overall architecture can be used to implement models that can access short-term eidetic memory "in-context," permanent structural memory "in-weights,"
The tiny tuxedo cat who became a naval hero
A 17-year-old British sailor saved Simon from the Hong Kong docks when he was likely a year old. Breakthroughs, discoveries, and DIY tips sent six days a week. One day in March of 1948, George Hickinbottom, a British sailor, was walking around the docks of Stonecutters Island in Hong Kong. When the 17-year-old spotted a small black-and-white tuxedo cat, barely out of kittenhood, he decided to smuggle the hungry, scrawny animal aboard his ship, the HMS . Hickinbottom didn't get in trouble.
