• Abstract: In this work, we propose a motion robust and high-speed detection pipeline which better leverages the event data. First, we design an event stream representation called temporal active focus (TAF), which efficiently utilizes the spatial-temporal asynchronous event stream, constructing event tensors robust to object motions. Then, we propose a module called the bifurcated folding module (BFM), which encodes the rich temporal information in the TAF tensor at the input layer of the detector. Following this, we design a high-speed lightweight detector called agile event detector (AED) plus a simple but effective data augmentation method, to enhance the detection accuracy and reduce the model's parameter. Experiments on two typical real-scene event camera object detection datasets show that our method is competitive in terms of accuracy, efficiency, and the number of parameters. By classifying objects into multiple motion levels based on the optical flow density metric, we further illustrated the robustness of our method for objects with different velocities relative to the camera.

  Event cameras offer superior temporal resolution, superior dynamic range, and minimal power requirements. Unlike traditional frame-based sensors that capture redundant information at fixed intervals, event cameras asynchronously record pixel-level brightness changes. We introduce a novel motion segmentation method that leverages self-supervised vision transformers on both event data and optical flow information.

  Multiple object tracking (MOT) has been successfully investigated in computer vision. However, MOT for the videos captured by unmanned aerial vehicles (UAV) is still challenging due to small object size, blurred object appearance, and very large and/or irregular motion. We propose FOLT to mitigate these problems and reach fast and accurate MOT in UAV view.

• Dual Memory Aggregation Network for Event-Based Object Detection with Learnable Representation [79.02808071245634]
  Event-based cameras are bio-inspired sensors that capture brightness change of every pixel in an asynchronous manner. Event streams are divided into grids in the x-y-t coordinates for both positive and negative polarity, producing a set of pillars as 3D tensor representation. Long memory is encoded in the hidden state of adaptive convLSTMs while short memory is modeled by computing spatial-temporal correlation between event pillars.

  We design a space-time memory (STM)-based network, which extracts useful temporal information of the current frame from adjacent frames as the temporal branch of VSOD. In the encoding stage, we generate high-level temporal features by using high-level features from the current and its adjacent frames. In the decoding stage, we propose an effective fusion strategy for spatial and temporal branches. The proposed model does not require optical flow or other preprocessing, and can reach a speed of nearly 100 FPS during inference.
