Open-Set Object Detection: challenging VLM to understand unknown objects

Il y a 34 minutes


Saclay, Île-de-France CEA Temps plein

Your missions within this internship are to:

  • Study state-of-the-art methods of Open Set Object Detection (OSOD) as well as Visual Language Models (VLM) in the context of Open World containing both known and unknown objects;
  • Design an object detector aware of the existence of the unknown, and able to describe the unknown by comparing it to or distinguishing it from what is known via certain characteristics that can be described textually;
  • Evaluate the proposed method on recent OSOD benchmarks and compare to the state of the art;
  • Challenge these methods by applying them to new contexts (e.g. aerial images, medical imaging);
  • If relevant, submit your contributions to an international conference or workshop for publication.

Join CEA List and LVA as an intern to:

  • Work in one of the most innovative research organizations in the world, addressing societal challenges to build the world of tomorrow
  • Discover a rich ecosystem: privileged connections between the industrial and academic sectors
  • Conduct research autonomously and creatively: encouragement to valorize results (scientific articles, patents, open-source codes...)
  • Join a young and dynamic team
  • Benefit from an internal computing infrastructure with more

than 300 state-of-the-art GPUs

  • Receive a stipend between €1300 and €1400 per month
  • Have the opportunity to continue with a PhD or as a research engineer after the internship
  • Have the possibility of remote work, receive a 75% reimbursement on public transportation costs, and benefit

from the "mobili-jeune" aid to reduce rent costs…

    The detection of out-of-distribution (OoD) samples is crucial for deploying deep learning (DL) models in real-world scenarios. OoD samples pose a challenge to DL models as they are not represented in the training data and can naturally arrive during deployment (i.e., a distribution shift), increasing the risk of obtaining wrong predictions. Consequently, OoD...

    Annotationg in 3D such (detection, segmentation ...), is required to train reliable perception models, which can be used in autonomous driving for example. However such a process requires multi-modal (camera, LIDAR, RADAR) visualization and annotation which is a complicated and costly process. This is why at CEA-List we aim to develop smart tools to...

    The recruited engineer will be co-supervised by MdS and Joliot to implement this new approach. To achieve a portable, efficient code that fully exploits GPUs, the core of the code will be developed using the Kokkos library, for which there is strong expertise at MdS and within the CExA [1]project. Subsequently, a Python interface will be established to make...
