PALO: A Polyglot Large Multimodal Model for 5B People
In pursuit of more inclusive Vision-Language Models (VLMs), this study introduces a Large Multilingual Multimodal Model called \textsc{Palo}. \textsc{Palo} offers visual reasoning capabilities in 10 major languages, including English, Chinese, Hindi, Spanish, French, Arabic, Bengali, Russian, Urdu, and Japanese, that span a total of $\sim$5B people (65\% of the world population). Our approach involves a semi-automated translation approach to adapt the multimodal instruction dataset from English…

Our honey mesquite is amazing this yr! And the bees love it. 🤩 #TreesOfMastodon #SoCal #desert
Update: It’s a blue palo verde, not a mesquite!

Madre mía, Boeing, es que no hay que tocar sus aviones ni con un palo largo

Palo Verde are the state tree of Arizona. Their bark is full of chlorophyll, which makes it green and able to do photosynthesis. This saves them from having to make leafs, which need a lot of water, to which is a rare commodity around here.

DINOBot: Robot Manipulation via Retrieval and Alignment with Vision Foundation Models
We propose DINOBot, a novel imitation learning framework for robot manipulation, which leverages the image-level and pixel-level capabilities of features extracted from Vision Transformers trained with DINO. When interacting with a novel object, DINOBot first uses these features to retrieve the most visually similar object experienced during human demonstrations, and then uses this object to align its end-effector with the novel object to enable effective interaction. Through a series of real-w…

Nos ha llegado un correo de la Federación de Mujeres Progresistas y, antes de contestarlo, quería confitar su alguien sabe de qué palo van, me han sonado ap pesoístas y no sé si seršn terfas. ¿Alguien las conoce?
