In this episode, we discuss PLLaVA : Parameter-free LLaVA Extension from Images to Videos for Video Dense Captioning by Lin Xu, Yilin Zhao, Daquan Zhou, Zhijie Lin, See Kiong Ng, Jiashi Feng. The paper introduces PLLaVA, a model that expands image captioning techniques to video dense captioning, effectively describing various elements, including motions and attires. PLLaVA is evaluated against strong baselines, showing improved performance across multiple video captioning benchmarks. Additionally, the paper includes practical examples demonstrating the type of detailed captions PLLaVA can generate, thus highlighting its practical application in video content analysis.

I'm excited to share our most recent project, 𝘙𝘦𝘦𝘯𝘢𝘤𝘵 𝘈𝘯𝘺𝘵𝘩𝘪𝘯𝘨, where we propose a general method to transfer the semantic motion of a given reference video to given target images. To the best of our knowledge, it is the first reenactment method that generalizes across various domains and supports multiple types of motions, including full-body, face, camera, and even hand-crafted motions. Our method thus enables completely novel applications and takes a significant step towards being able to reenact anything. For more fun results, including a jumping penguin and a cereal box cantering like a horse, please refer to our project page linked below.

Collecting Insights was terrific because it scales both broad and deep -- it provided a comprehensive overview of collecting, tailored to the advanced stage of the collecting cycle where I find myself, and offered suggestions and resources that are valuable now and will be into the future. Many thanks to Spencer for his expertise and for organizing an impactful series of classes." Taylor Fitzpatrick Private Collector COLLECTING INSIGHTS: Legacy https://lnkd.in/gdQ3DWvr   “Each session of Collecting Insights has been invaluable for me as an "Expanding collector." Not only have I learned more about various aspects of the rare book trade, such as auctions and changing trends within the industry, but I have also been inspired to do so much more with my collection, like setting up a website. Ideas like these will surely come in handy as my collection grows and I look towards its future. I'm so grateful to have had the chance to learn from Spencer in these sessions.” Stacy Shirk Private Collector COLLECTING INSIGHTS: Expanding https://lnkd.in/gjfpipX7 #collecting #collectors #libraries #rarebooks #prints #photography
