Abstract: In this talk, I focus on efficient online learning for solving real-world physics puzzles. I discuss challenges associated with learning in this domain and how those challenges inform certain design decisions. In particular, learning from scratch in the real world would be difficult. I present a practical mixture of experts framework for learning strategies […]

Abstract: Object detection and forecasting are fundamental components of embodied perception. These two problems, however, are largely studied in isolation by the community. In this paper, we propose an end-to-end approach for detection and motion forecasting based on raw sensor measurement as opposed to ground truth tracks. Instead of predicting the current frame locations and [...]
