The paper introduces Event-guided Neural Video Codec (ENVC), a neural video compression method that incorporates event streams—capturing brightness changes between frames—into both motion and frame coding stages. By using event-guided motion priors and event-conditioned predictors, ENVC improves RGB compression efficiency, achieving significant BD-rate savings across six benchmarks. The authors also synthesize paired RGB-event data for training and demonstrate that the gains persist on large-motion sequences, highlighting events as a valuable complementary modality for video coding.

arXiv:2605. 00271v3 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Event cameras provide several unique advantages over standard frame-based sensors, including high temporal resolution, low latency, and robustness to extreme lighting.

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 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.
Hyper-RED introduces a scalable image-to-event pretraining framework that transfers high‑order semantic structures via hypergraphs, avoiding rigid pixel‑wise alignment. By constructing image, event, and cross‑modal hypergraphs and applying a hypergraph relational distillation loss, the method preserves local relational consistency and event‑specific characteristics while inheriting image‑derived semantic organization. Experiments across five event datasets show consistent scaling from ViT‑S to ViT‑L and state‑of‑the‑art performance.

Event cameras, also known as neuromorphic cameras, have gained significant attention in recent years due to their high temporal resolution, high dynamic range, and low power consumption. While many studies and datasets in neuromorphic vision have focused on automotive and drone applications, human-centric daily-life scenarios remain largely underrepresented, despite their importance for developing and benchmarking event-based perception systems.
Neuromorphic vision systems operate under strict constraints on bandwidth, memory, and energy, particularly at the edge, motivating early mechanisms for data reduction and selective processing. In thi...

The paper introduces ETHEREAL, the first accelerator for event-driven graph neural networks (EV‑GNNs) that can handle 640×480 resolution inputs. It achieves this through a neighbor‑parallel spline convolution engine and a 2D/3D‑split memory hierarchy that includes a novel region‑of‑interest spatiotemporal caching mechanism. Measurements show end‑to‑end inference latency of 25.6 µs and energy consumption of 1.7 µJ per event on state‑of‑the‑art workloads.
