The paper introduces SCARF, a real‑time velocity‑invariant representation for event cameras that preserves raw events while handling fast motion, stationary scenes, and independently moving objects. Unlike previous methods that convert events into image‑like forms and lose temporal detail, SCARF maintains temporal information and achieves state‑of‑the‑art performance in computational efficiency and representation quality.
Event cameras offer microsecond temporal resolution, low latency, and high dynamic range, making them attractive for robotics. However, labeled event-camera data for a specific robot and scene is scarce and expensive to collect, which slows the development of event-based perception and control.
The paper introduces a confidence‑normalized continuous multi‑timescale representation for event cameras, using logarithmic B‑spline temporal encoding and a geometry‑aware local confidence mechanism. When paired with a fixed feed‑forward EventCenterNet detector, this representation outperforms the compact CSTR representation on the PEDRo and Gen1 datasets. Additionally, a recursive exponential‑polynomial approximation is proposed to allow efficient event‑by‑event updates while maintaining detection performance.

The paper presents a new multi-frame representation for event-based action recognition that outperforms single-frame approaches, especially on long and complex event sequences. It employs a masked auto-encoding framework to pre-train a Vision Transformer, using a sparsity-aware masking algorithm, token selection, and multiple mask tokens with position-aware attention to boost performance while managing computational cost. The method achieves state‑of‑the‑art results on the THU‑EACT‑50 CHL and DailyDVS‑200 benchmarks.
The paper presents a method for tracking insects in the field using a stereoscopic event-based camera setup. By converting asynchronous events into conventional video formats, the authors combine the high temporal resolution of event cameras with standard video processing techniques to capture detailed insect flight movements. The stereoscopic configuration enables continuous, low‑latency 3D tracking, reducing motion blur and improving accuracy in natural environments.
The paper proposes a confidence‑normalized continuous multi‑timescale event representation that encodes temporal information directly into event data using logarithmic B‑spline temporal encoding and a geometry‑aware local confidence mechanism. When applied to a fixed feed‑forward EventCenterNet detector, this representation outperforms the compact CSTR representation on the PEDRo and Gen1 datasets. Additionally, a recursive exponential‑polynomial approximation is introduced to allow efficient event‑by‑event updates while largely preserving detection performance.

The paper presents a lightweight extension to the Monst3R 4D reconstruction model by adding an event-camera input branch while keeping the rest of the architecture unchanged. Across three benchmark datasets, this RGB‑event fusion reduces absolute relative error by an average of 3.4% compared to the RGB‑only baseline, with the largest gains occurring under high object motion where RGB‑only methods falter. The study demonstrates that incorporating event data can meaningfully improve 4D reconstruction robustness without a full architectural redesign.
