Projector-camera (ProCams) systems achieve active scene perception and controllable appearance manipulation via structured illumination, serving as a core infrastructure for spatial augmented reality, projection mapping, and surface reflectance acquisition. Existing inverse-rende…
Cloud removal (CR) is essential for optical remote sensing, serving as a prerequisite for reliable downstream interpretation, such as semantic segmentation and change detection. However, existing CR approaches often prioritize visual realism while overlooking their impact on subs…
Touch resolves the physical-property ambiguity left by vision: exploratory contact recovers shape, texture, compliance, and material, and visuo-haptic object representations converge in ventral visual cortex. We ask whether representation learning can reproduce this grounding. Ta…
Vision-Language-Action (VLA) models enable instruction-driven robotic manipulation, but they inherit oversized language backbones from pretrained VLMs whose capacity far exceeds what is needed for short robotic instructions. This raises a basic question: how much of a VLA model i…
