SVLGaussian: Single View Language Gaussian Splatting
ABSTRACT Open‐vocabulary 3D querying based on 3D Gaussian splatting (3DGS) shows great promise in facilitating accurate 3D query capabilities of AI systems. These methods typically rely on pre‐captured multi‐view images to enable natural language interactions with 3D scenes. In practice, when embodied AI encounters unexplored scenes, it is difficult to

In doing so, we provide theoretical arguments and empirical support for the relationship between M&A rumours and deal completions ...

Loanwords and Linguistic Phylogenetics: *pelek̑u‐ ‘axe’ and *(H)a(i̯)g̑‐ ‘goat’1
Abstract This paper assesses the role of borrowings in two different approaches to linguistic phylogenetics: Traditional qualitative analyses of lexemes, and quantitative computational analysis of cognacy. It problematises the assumption that loanwords can be excluded altogether from datasets of lexical cognacy.
