Attached: 1 image Sitting on the tarmac for an Air Canada flight from Toronto to Ottawa… The ground crew spent 2 hrs trying to fit a wheelchair into the cargo.

I feel for the owner of that chair! #accessibility #aircanada

Unleashing the Potential of Multimodal LLMs for Zero-Shot Spatio-Temporal Video Grounding
Spatio-temporal video grounding (STVG) aims at localizing the spatio-temporal tube of a video, as specified by the input text query. In this paper, we utilize multimodal large language models (MLLMs) to explore a zero-shot solution in STVG. We reveal two key insights about MLLMs: (1) MLLMs tend to dynamically assign special tokens, referred to as \textit{grounding tokens}, for grounding the text query; and (2) MLLMs often suffer from suboptimal grounding due to the inability to fully integrate …

It takes a special brand of political incompetence to see millions of people marching in opposition to the Republican president and not do anything to seize that momentum
