Text-to-image diffusion transformers learn about objects and scenes by learning to generate them, making them strong candidates for training-free zero-shot open-vocabulary semantic segmentation. State-of-the-art attribution methods score each pixel independently, comparing its features against a fixed text-derived class representation, whether as an output-space similarity or as a cross-attention weight.

Can computer vision help make classrooms safer? In this pilot study, we investigate privacy-aware and computationally efficient classroom incident recognition from CCTV-style observations.
Animal pose estimation and tracking is important for wildlife monitoring and conservation research, and with limited expert time for labelling automated approaches are imperative. While human pose estimation and tracking has seen rapid progress thanks to large annotated datasets, animal pose remain challenging, due to large morphological and behavioural differences between species and limited annotated data.
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.
