    labelling real-world videos for point tracking is cumbersome. therefore, we use synthetic training data, but this creates a gap with real-world test videos. what if we could use existing trackers to label real-world videos? but this requires knowing which tracker to trust when.

    Happy to share our work: Real-World Point Tracking with Verifier-Guided Pseudo-Labeling. #CVPR2026 We improve the pseudo-label training pipeline for real-world videos using a verifier that selects the most reliable predictions across multiple trackers. 🔗kuis-ai.github.io/track_on_r

    I'm teaching Computer Vision with Deep Learning this semester. any example courses that you can recommend to check for reference (other than CS231n obviously)?

    it still feels unreal but we can finally talk about it: I've received an ERC Starting Grant with my project ENSURE. with this funding by @ERC_Research, I will explore different types of uncertainty in self-driving. I'm extremely grateful for all the support 😇 #ERCStG

    I still don’t have a visa for ICCV. let’s keep telling ourselves how inclusive we are. the summer I got 3 papers and an ERC and still wasn’t allowed in Europe. if you read this and think I deserve this because I want to live in the same country as my family, just unfollow me.

    don’t invite me to “a virtual event to recognize the forward momentum and impact of Women blabla” give me funding, give me GPUs, accept my students to your internship programs, cite my papers. I don’t need to be told that I’m doing great at a virtual event, I need actual support.

    I’m losing my best students to stupid app companies because of money. how is that good for anyone.. I’m not even angry, I just feel tired and maybe a little hopeless. time for kickbox, you also have to learn how to take a hit.

    some NeurIPS highlights: LDM tutorial was great. the 1st part is a must-watch, the 2nd part is full of references for recent advancements, and you need to check the 3rd part if you're planning to use LDMs for something other than images/videos.

    Richard Hartley finding a bug in the formulation of NeRF that makes it easier to optimize.. this day has already turned out more fun than I thought.

    Jitendra Malik: "Computer Vision is too important to be left to just Machine Learning people." mic drop moment? #ICCV2021 I love that he calls it an "awareness" as a whole 😍

    I cannot believe we did not get rejected this time 🥹 actually, someone check the acceptance ratio because we did 3 in 3 🔥 I’m so happy for my students 😍 I cannot think of a better a birthday present --actually I can but no pressure ERC 😅
