Geometry Beats Estimated Depth: RGB-Only Multi-Camera 3D Tracking under Sim2Real
Abdullah Naeem, Anav Katwal, Ayon Dey +2
The AI City Challenge 2026 Track 1 evaluates multi-camera 3D perception in large indoor warehouses under a synthetic-to-real (Sim2Real) setting; depth is available only for trainin…
Leak-Free Cross-Validated Stacking with Per-Architecture Calibration for Sand-Boil Segmentation in Earthen Levees
Padam Jung Thapa, Anav Katwal, Ayon Dey +4
Sand boils, points where water seeping beneath an earthen levee re-emerges at the surface, are early warnings of internal erosion, and deep segmentation networks are increasingly u…
Multi-Conditioned Diffusion Synthesis of Sand Boils for Low-Resource Earthen-Levee Inspection
Padam Jung Thapa, Abdullah Bin Naeem, Ayon Dey +2
Sand boils on earthen levees are safety-critical defects, but pixel-level detection is limited by scarce annotations. We present a diffusion-based synthesis pipeline for low-resour…
Energy-Efficient Multi-Robot Coverage Path Planning of Non-Convex Regions of Interests
Sourav Raxit, Jose Fuentes, Paulo Padrao +4
This letter presents an energy-efficient multi-robot coverage path planning (MRCPP) framework for large, nonconvex Regions of Interest (ROI) containing obstacles and no-fly zones (…
NTIRE 2026 Rip Current Detection and Segmentation (RipDetSeg) Challenge Report
Andrei Dumitriu, Aakash Ralhan, Florin Miron +32
This report presents the NTIRE 2026 Rip Current Detection and Segmentation (RipDetSeg) Challenge, which targets automatic rip current understanding in images. Rip currents are haza…
