Excited to share our new work at @acm.org Transactions on Graphics/@acmsiggraph.bsky.social! We use coded noise to add an invisible watermark to lighting that helps detect fake or manipulated video. (1/2)

I am excited to announce our latest work 🎉 "Cultural Evaluations of Vision-Language Models Have a Lot to Learn from Cultural Theory". We review recent works on culture in VLMs and argue for deeper grounding in cultural theory to enable more inclusive evaluations.

Can Multimodal Retrieval Enhance Cultural Awareness in Vision-Language Models?

Excited to introduce RAVENEA, a new benchmark aimed at evaluating cultural understanding in VLMs through RAG.

Thank you Prof. Derpanis!
Feels like @belongielab.org just hit 100k citations yesterday, but that curve’s still climbing strong and now they’re barreling toward 200k. Let’s go! 💪🫡

New study with @iaugenstein.bsky.social’s group analyzing the interplay between photos and text in the news
🚨New pre-print 🚨

News articles often convey different things in text vs. image. Recent work in computational framing analysis has analysed the article text but the corresponding images in those articles have been overlooked.
We propose multi-modal framing analysis of news: arxiv.org/abs/2503.20960

Thrilled to announce "Multimodality Helps Few-shot 3D Point Cloud Semantic Segmentation" is accepted as a Spotlight (5%) at #ICLR2025!

Our model MM-FSS leverages 3D, 2D, & text modalities for robust few-shot 3D segmentation—all without extra labeling cost. 🤩

🤔Do Vision and Language Models Share Concepts? 🚀
We present an empirical evaluation and find that language models partially converge towards representations isomorphic to those of vision models. #EMNLP
