IMAGDressing-v1: Customizable Virtual DressingFei Shen, Xin Jiang, Xin He et al.
Latest advances have achieved realistic virtual try-on (VTON) through localized garment inpainting using latent diffusion models, significantly enhancing consumers' online shopping experience. However, existing VTON technologies neglect the need for merchants to showcase garments comprehensively, including flexible control over garments, optional faces, poses, and scenes. To address this issue, we define a virtual dressing (VD) task focused on generating freely editable human images with fixed garments and optional conditions. Meanwhile, we design a comprehensive affinity metric index (CAMI) to evaluate the consistency between generated images and reference garments. Then, we propose IMAGDressing-v1, which incorporates a garment UNet that captures semantic features from CLIP and texture features from VAE. We present a hybrid attention module, including a frozen self-attention and a trainable cross-attention, to integrate garment features from the garment UNet into a frozen denoising UNet, ensuring users can control different scenes through text. IMAGDressing-v1 can be combined with other extension plugins, such as ControlNet and IP-Adapter, to enhance the diversity and controllability of generated images. Furthermore, to address the lack of data, we release the interactive garment pairing (IGPair) dataset, containing over 300,000 pairs of clothing and dressed images, and establish a standard pipeline for data assembly. Extensive experiments demonstrate that our IMAGDressing-v1 achieves state-of-the-art human image synthesis performance under various controlled conditions. The code and model will be available at https://github.com/muzishen/IMAGDressing.
CognitionCapturer: Decoding Visual Stimuli From Human EEG Signal With Multimodal InformationKaifan Zhang, Lihuo He, Xin Jiang et al.
Electroencephalogram (EEG) signals have attracted significant attention from researchers due to their non-invasive nature and high temporal sensitivity in decoding visual stimuli. However, most recent studies have focused solely on the relationship between EEG and image data pairs, neglecting the valuable ``beyond-image-modality" information embedded in EEG signals. This results in the loss of critical multimodal information in EEG. To address this limitation, we propose CognitionCapturer, a unified framework that fully leverages multimodal data to represent EEG signals. Specifically, CognitionCapturer trains Modality Expert Encoders for each modality to extract cross-modal information from the EEG modality. Then, it introduces a diffusion prior to map the EEG embedding space to the CLIP embedding space, followed by using a pretrained generative model, the proposed framework can reconstruct visual stimuli with high semantic and structural fidelity. Notably, the framework does not require any fine-tuning of the generative models and can be extended to incorporate more modalities. Through extensive experiments, we demonstrate that CognitionCapturer outperforms state-of-the-art methods both qualitatively and quantitatively.

Autonomous Quilt Spreading for Caregiving RobotsYuchun Guo, Zhiqing Lu, Yanling Zhou et al.
In this work, we propose a novel strategy to ensure infants, who inadvertently displace their quilts during sleep, are promptly and accurately re-covered. Our approach is formulated into two subsequent steps: interference resolution and quilt spreading. By leveraging the DWPose human skeletal detection and the Segment Anything instance segmentation models, the proposed method can accurately recognize the states of the infant and the quilt over her, which involves addressing the interferences resulted from an infant's limbs laid on part of the quilt. Building upon prior research, the EM*D deep learning model is employed to forecast quilt state transitions before and after quilt spreading actions. To improve the sensitivity of the network in distinguishing state variation of the handled quilt, we introduce an enhanced loss function that translates the voxelized quilt state into a more representative one. Both simulation and real-world experiments validate the efficacy of our method, in spreading and recover a quilt over an infant.
