New A-PAIR benchmark and ICRG framework tackle air-ground person detection

Researchers have introduced A-PAIR, a new benchmark and framework designed for air-ground cross-view referring person detection. This problem is crucial for coordinating ground and aerial agents by grounding language commands to specific physical targets. The proposed A-PAIR benchmark includes over 22,000 cross-view referring samples and utilizes a semi-automatic annotation framework called FARA to reduce costs. The accompanying ICRG framework improves detection performance by combining factorized grounding, candidate-completeness supervision, and cross-view consistency calibration. AI

IMPACT This research advances embodied intelligence by improving the ability of aerial and ground agents to coordinate actions based on language commands.

    A-PAIR: A Benchmark and Identity-Consistent Grounding Framework for Air-Ground Cross-View Referring Person Detection

    arXiv:2608.27997v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Air-ground cross-view referring person detection is a necessary component in the language-to-perception-to-control chain of collective embodied intelligence, grounding a language command into the same physical target before ground a…
