Omnidata: A Scalable Pipeline for Making Multi-Task Mid-Level Vision Datasets from 3D Scans

Ainaz Eftekhar, Alexander Sax, Roman Bachmann +2

This paper introduces a pipeline to parametrically sample and render multi-task vision datasets from comprehensive 3D scans from the real world. Changing the sampling parameters al…

Robust Policies via Mid-Level Visual Representations: An Experimental Study in Manipulation and Navigation

Bryan Chen, Alexander Sax, Gene Lewis +5

Vision-based robotics often separates the control loop into one module for perception and a separate module for control. It is possible to train the whole system end-to-end (e.g. w…

Robust Learning Through Cross-Task Consistency

Amir Zamir, Alexander Sax, Teresa Yeo +6

Visual perception entails solving a wide set of tasks, e.g., object detection, depth estimation, etc. The predictions made for multiple tasks from the same image are not independen…

Learning to Navigate Using Mid-Level Visual Priors

Alexander Sax, Jeffrey O. Zhang, Bradley Emi +4

How much does having visual priors about the world (e.g. the fact that the world is 3D) assist in learning to perform downstream motor tasks (e.g. navigating a complex environment)…

Side-Tuning: A Baseline for Network Adaptation via Additive Side Networks

Jeffrey O Zhang, Alexander Sax, Amir Zamir +2

When training a neural network for a desired task, one may prefer to adapt a pre-trained network rather than starting from randomly initialized weights. Adaptation can be useful in…

Mid-Level Visual Representations Improve Generalization and Sample Efficiency for Learning Visuomotor Policies

Alexander Sax, Bradley Emi, Amir R. Zamir +3

How much does having visual priors about the world (e.g. the fact that the world is 3D) assist in learning to perform downstream motor tasks (e.g. delivering a package)? We study t…
