Curating training data is among the most consequential yet labor-intensive parts of modern AI development: practitioners iteratively propose, implement, evaluate, and revise data policies against noisy benchmark feedback. We ask whether generalist coding agents can automate this data-curation loop. We introduce *Curati...

Realistic online handwriting depends not only on individual character shapes, but also on how a writer connects, spaces, and aligns adjacent characters. Existing methods rely primarily on long-range sequence modeling and capture these inter-character behaviors only implicitly. This often produces plausible glyphs accom...
Automotive radar perception pipelines commonly construct angle-domain representations via beamforming before applying learning-based models. This work instead investigates a representational question: can meaningful spatial structure be learned directly from pre-beamforming per-antenna range-Doppler (RD) measurements?...

Diffusion models achieve state-of-the-art video generation quality, but their inference remains expensive due to the large number of sequential denoising steps. This has motivated a growing line of research on accelerating diffusion inference. Among training-free acceleration methods, caching reduces computation by reu...

How far can 3D object detection go using 4D radar alone? Despite offering weather-robust and velocity- aware sensing for autonomous perception, modern 4D radar still yields sparse, noisy, and unstable point clouds, limiting radar-only 3D detection. We present HyperDet, a detector- agnostic input enhancement pipeline th...

High-quality annotated datasets are crucial for advancing machine learning in medical image analysis. However, a critical gap exists: most datasets either offer a single, clean ground truth, which hides real-world expert disagreement, or they provide multiple annotations without a separate gold standard for objective e...

We tackle the problem of forecasting bimanual 3D hand motion and articulation from a single image in everyday settings. To address the lack of 3D hand annotations in diverse settings, we design an annotation pipeline consisting of a diffusion model to lift 2D hand keypoint sequences to 4D hand motion. For the forecasti...

Vision-language models (VLMs) can ingest only a limited number of video frames, making frame selection a practical necessity. But do current Video QA benchmarks genuinely require temporal frame selection, or can most questions be answered regardless of which frames are shown? We introduce Frame Selection Sensitivity (F...
Existing visual place recognition (VPR) datasets predominantly rely on vehicle-mounted imagery, offer limited multimodal diversity, and underrepresent dense pedestrian street scenes, particularly in non-Western urban contexts. We present MMS-VPR, a challenging fine-grained multimodal benchmark for pedestrian-level plac...

As machine learning evolves, domain generalization (DG) and domain adaptation (DA) have become crucial for improving model robustness across diverse environments. Contrastive Language-Image Pretraining (CLIP) plays a central role in these tasks, offering strong zero-shot capabilities that allow models to operate effect...

Beyond high-fidelity image synthesis, diffusion models have recently exhibited promising results in dense visual perception tasks. However, most existing work treats diffusion models as a standalone component for perception tasks, employing them either solely for off-the-shelf data augmentation or as mere feature extra...

We propose a graph-based tracking formulation for multi-object tracking (MOT) where target detections contain kinematic information and re-identification features (attributes). Our method applies a successive shortest paths (SSP) algorithm to a tracking graph defined over a batch of frames. The edge costs in this track...

Jennifer Neville did not want to go into computer science—but that’s exactly where she landed. Neville discusses the starts and stops that led to her professional sweet spot and her work identifying “surprising failures” making it hard for AI to handle complexity. The post What AI gets wrong and what failure teaches us appeared first on Microsoft Research.
