MV2: Multi-View Multi-Vehicle Driving Dataset for Novel View Synthesis
Sanjay Bhargav Dharavath, Hanvitha Saraswathi Mukkamala, Faizan Farooq Khan +4
Differentiable rendering has advanced novel view synthesis (NVS), yet applying it to real-world driving remains difficult due to sparse capture viewpoints, dynamic objects, and lim…
ReefNet: A Large-Scale Dataset and Benchmark for Fine-Grained Coral Reef Recognition
Abdulwahab Felemban, Yahia Battach, Faizan Farooq Khan +10
Coral reefs are rapidly declining under anthropogenic pressures (e.g., climate change), creating an urgent need for scalable and automated monitoring. Progress in data-driven coral…
Step-by-step Layered Design Generation
Faizan Farooq Khan, K J Joseph, Koustava Goswami +2
Design generation, in its essence, is a step-by-step process where designers progressively refine and enhance their work through careful modifications. Despite this fundamental cha…
FishNet++: Analyzing the capabilities of Multimodal Large Language Models in marine biology
Faizan Farooq Khan, Yousef Radwan, Eslam Abdelrahman +6
Multimodal large language models (MLLMs) have demonstrated impressive cross-domain capabilities, yet their proficiency in specialized scientific fields like marine biology remains…
Neural Catalog: Scaling Species Recognition with Catalog of Life-Augmented Generation
Faizan Farooq Khan, Jun Chen, Youssef Mohamed +2
Open-vocabulary species recognition is a major challenge in computer vision, particularly in ornithology, where new taxa are continually discovered. While benchmarks like CUB-200-2…
Category-level Text-to-Image Retrieval Improved: Bridging the Domain Gap with Diffusion Models and Vision Encoders
Faizan Farooq Khan, Vladan StojniÄ, Zakaria Laskar +2
This work explores text-to-image retrieval for queries that specify or describe a semantic category. While vision-and-language models (VLMs) like CLIP offer a straightforward open-…
