The Embodied AI team @MetaAI is looking for postdocs! We're looking for researchers that are interested in advancing foundation models for Embodied AI and robotics. If interested, apply here: metacareers.com/jobs/1506294…

Oregon State EECS is recruiting (including in AI/ML). We will soon have the most powerful academic computing facility in the US thanks to a gift from Jen-Hsun and Lori Huang. eecs.oregonstate.edu/prospec…

Language-guided navigators shouldn’t be carted off to a new environment with each new instruction. Instead, they should persist & improve over time. We present Iterative Vision-and-Language Navigation to evaluate exactly this! arxiv.org/abs/2210.03087 jacobkrantz.github.io/ivln

Rebuttal period is coming in a few days! Check these resources to make the most out of your rebuttal: @Awfidius at CVPR20: - slides: bit.ly/3utzSmp - video: bit.ly/3IgBlSJ @deviparikh, @DhruvBatraDB and @stefmlee blog post: bit.ly/3OPx0YS

To the V&L community: should we rethink current evaluation practices in VQA? We conducted a systematic study of recent pretrained V&L models for OOD generalization in VQA. Check out the findings!

Thrilled to announce the 2nd RxR-Habitat Challenge at the #CVPR2022 Embodied AI Workshop! Agents must navigate indoor environments following human instructions. The environments are realistic, the instructions multilingual. Is your agent up for the task? ai.google.com/research/rxr/h…
