Contrastive Conceptor Activation Steering (COAST): Unlocking Vision-Language-Action Models through Hidden States
Miranda Muqing Miao, Subin Kim, Brandon Yang +1
Vision-Language-Action (VLA) models leverage powerful perceptual priors from web-scale Vision-Language Model (VLM) pre-training, yet they remain surprisingly brittle in practice, f…
Language Models Enable Simple Systems for Generating Structured Views of Heterogeneous Data Lakes
Simran Arora, Brandon Yang, Sabri Eyuboglu +4
A long standing goal of the data management community is to develop general, automated systems that ingest semi-structured documents and output queryable tables without human effor…
Streaming Object Detection for 3-D Point Clouds
Wei Han, Zhengdong Zhang, Benjamin Caine +7
Autonomous vehicles operate in a dynamic environment, where the speed with which a vehicle can perceive and react impacts the safety and efficacy of the system. LiDAR provides a pr…
StarNet: Targeted Computation for Object Detection in Point Clouds
Jiquan Ngiam, Benjamin Caine, Wei Han +10
Detecting objects from LiDAR point clouds is an important component of self-driving car technology as LiDAR provides high resolution spatial information. Previous work on point-clo…
Using Videos to Evaluate Image Model Robustness
Keren Gu, Brandon Yang, Jiquan Ngiam +2
Human visual systems are robust to a wide range of image transformations that are challenging for artificial networks. We present the first study of image model robustness to the m…
CondConv: Conditionally Parameterized Convolutions for Efficient Inference
Brandon Yang, Gabriel Bender, Quoc V. Le +1
Convolutional layers are one of the basic building blocks of modern deep neural networks. One fundamental assumption is that convolutional kernels should be shared for all examples…
