• Abstract: Most existing works solving Room-to-Room VLN problem only utilize RGB images and do not consider local context around candidate views, which lack sufficient visual cues about surrounding environment. Moreover, natural language contains complex semantic information thus its correlations with visual inputs are hard to model merely with cross attention. In this paper, we propose GeoVLN, which learns Geometry-enhanced visual representation based on slot attention for robust Visual-and-Language Navigation. The RGB images are compensated with the corresponding depth maps and normal maps predicted by Omnidata as visual inputs. Technically, we introduce a two-stage module that combine local slot attention and CLIP model to produce geometry-enhanced representation from such input. We employ V&L BERT to learn a cross-modal representation that incorporate both language and vision informations. Additionally, a novel multiway attention module is designed, encouraging different phrases of input instruction to exploit the most related features from visual input. Extensive experiments demonstrate the effectiveness of our newly designed modules and show the compelling performance of the proposed method.

  The first visual prompting model named EarthMarker is proposed, which excels in image-level, region-level, and point-level RS imagery interpretation. To endow the EarthMarker with versatile multi-granularity visual perception abilities, the cross-domain phased learning strategy is developed. To tackle the lack of RS visual prompting data, a dataset named RSVP featuring multi-modal fine-grained visual prompting instruction is constructed.

  Chain-of-Spot (CoS) method is a novel approach that enhances feature extraction by focusing on key regions of interest. This technique allows LVLMs to access more detailed visual information without altering the original image resolution. Our empirical findings demonstrate a significant improvement in LVLMs' ability to understand and reason about visual content.

  We consider the problem of Vision-and-Language Navigation (VLN) In contrast to other works, our key insight is that the association between language and vision is stronger when it occurs in explicit spatial representations. We propose a cross-modal map learning model for vision-and-language navigation that first learns to predict the top-down semantics on an egocentric map for both observed and unobserved regions.

  Vision-and-Language Navigation (VLN) requires an agent to navigate to a remote location on the basis of natural-language instructions and a set of photo-realistic panoramas. Most existing methods take words in instructions and discrete views of each panorama as the minimal unit of encoding. We propose an object-informed sequential BERT to encode visual perceptions and linguistic instructions at the same fine-grained level.
