Computational Color Constancy beyond RGB Images: Multispectral and Temporal Extensions.
When it comes to visual perception, there are notable differences between the ways in which humans and machines interpret and understand images. Unlike image acquisition systems, the human eye can perceive object colors accurately regardless of the light source's color cast.

Push the Limits: Human‐Like Multimodal Extreme Embodied Intelligence for Autonomous Racing
Autonomous racing tests embodied intelligence under extreme control limits of speed, actuation, and decision‐making. Inspired by human multimodality, we present Apex, an embodied agent deployed on a super‐formula racing car at Yas Marina. Integrating physics‐informed perception, multimodal learning, and tasking, Apex cuts lap times by 15% and achieves ...

Model Predictive Control for Magnetically Actuated Cellbots
Magnetically actuated cellbots, formed by embedding microrobots in living cells, are steered along precise paths using a model predictive controller enhanced with a Gaussian process disturbance estimator. The data‐efficient method calibrates each cellbot individually, cutting modeling error by roughly 60% and enabling accurate navigation through cell ...
