Efficient Multi-Timescale Event Representations for Feed-Forward Object Detection

Read the original on arXiv Computer Vision →

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.

Efficient Multi-Timescale Event Representations for Feed-Forward Object Detection

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.

Cooking beyond Frames: A Stereo Event Camera Dataset in the Kitchen

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.

Low-Latency Event-Based Object Detection with Spatially-Sparse Linear Attention

The paper introduces Spatially‑Sparse Linear Attention (SSLA), a novel attention mechanism that activates only a sparse subset of spatial states, enabling efficient parallel training and inference for event‑based vision. Building on SSLA, the authors present SSLA‑Det, an end‑to‑end asynchronous linear attention model that achieves state‑of‑the‑art accuracy on Gen1 and N‑Caltech101 while reducing per‑event computation by more than 20× compared to the strongest prior asynchronous baseline.

Temporal Preservation over Processing: Diagnosing and Designing Spatiotemporal Single-Stage Video Detectors

arXiv:2606. 31421v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Single-stage video object detectors are increasingly deployed in time-critical applications, yet it remains unclear whether these models genuinely reason over temporal context or merely exploit a single informative frame-a gap hidden by standard metrics, which reward correct predictions regardless of how they are reached.

FLEET: Token-Based Feature Extraction for Event Camera-based Reinforcement Learning

FLEET is a token‑based feature extractor that processes event camera data directly, using random Fourier features and cross‑attention to compress variable‑length event streams into fixed‑size latent representations. By decoupling inference cost from sensor resolution, it avoids the high compute and temporal blurring associated with CNN‑based grid aggregation. Experiments on a new high‑throughput benchmark show that FLEET outperforms state‑of‑the‑art methods and remains robust across different observation frequencies.
