Transformers keep an exact (eidetic) record of recent tokens, but only within a bounded context. State Space Models compress the whole history into a lossy (fading) state. Hybrids such as Jamba combine both, but they give little control over the balance and… ## All works 15 works of theirs in our library, the most cited first; 2 with a page here, the others link their original until we summarise them. 1. **[Meta-Learning With Differentiable Convex Optimization ↗](https://doi.org/10.1109/cvpr.2019.01091) IEEE Computer Society Conference on Computer Vision and Pattern Recognition/Proceedings - IEEE Computer Society Conference on Computer Vision and Pattern Recognition/Proceedings · no summary yet**Kwonjoon Lee et al.*2019 · 1,281 citations* 2. **[MeMOT: Multi-Object Tracking with Memory ↗](https://doi.org/10.1109/cvpr52688.2022.00792) IEEE Computer Society Conference on Computer Vision and Pattern Recognition/Proceedings - IEEE Computer Society Conference on Computer Vision and Pattern Recognition/Proceedings · no summary yet**Jiarui Cai et al.*2022 · 250 citations* 3. **[Task2Vec: Task Embedding for Meta-Learning ↗](https://doi.org/10.1109/iccv.2019.00653) IEEE/CVF International Conference on Computer Vision (ICCV) · no summary yet**Alessandro Achille et al.*2019 · 250 citations* 4. **[ARCH++: Animation-Ready Clothed Human Reconstruction Revisited ↗](https://doi.org/10.1109/iccv48922.2021.01086) IEEE/CVF International Conference on Computer Vision (ICCV) · no summary yet**Tong He et al.*2021 · 205 citations* 5. **[Domain-size pooling in local descriptors: DSP-SIFT ↗](https://doi.org/10.1109/cvpr.2015.7299145) IEEE Computer Society Conference on Computer Vision and Pattern Recognition/Proceedings - IEEE Computer Society Conference on Computer Vision and Pattern Recognition/Proceedings · no summary yet**Jingming Dong, Stefano Soatto*2015 · 183 citations* 6. **[Few-Shot Learning With Embedded Class Models and Shot-Free Meta Training ↗](https://doi.org/10.1109/iccv.2019.00042) IEEE/CVF International Conference on Computer Vision (ICCV) · no summary yet**Avinash Ravichandran, Rahul Bhotika, Stefano Soatto*2019 · 182 citations* 7. **[Dense Depth Posterior (DDP) From Single Image and Sparse Range ↗](https://doi.org/10.1109/cvpr.2019.00347) IEEE Computer Society Conference on Computer Vision and Pattern Recognition/Proceedings - IEEE Computer Society Conference on Computer Vision and Pattern Recognition/Proceedings · no summary yet**Yanchao Yang, Alex Wong, Stefano Soatto*2019 · 133 citations* 8. **[Unsupervised Moving Object Detection via Contextual Information Separation ↗](https://doi.org/10.1109/cvpr.2019.00097) IEEE Computer Society Conference on Computer Vision and Pattern Recognition/Proceedings - IEEE Computer Society Conference on Computer Vision and Pattern Recognition/Proceedings · no summary yet**Yanchao Yang et al.*2019 · 121 citations* 9. **[Unsupervised Depth Completion with Calibrated Backprojection Layers ↗](https://doi.org/10.1109/iccv48922.2021.01251) IEEE/CVF International Conference on Computer Vision (ICCV) · no summary yet**Alex Wong, Stefano Soatto*2021 · 93 citations* 10. **[Depth Estimation from Camera Image and mmWave Radar Point Cloud ↗](https://doi.org/10.1109/cvpr52729.2023.00895) IEEE Computer Society Conference on Computer Vision and Pattern Recognition/Proceedings - IEEE Computer Society Conference on Computer Vision and Pattern Recognition/Proceedings · no summary yet**Akash Deep Singh et al.*2023 · 63 citations* 11. **[On the Scalability of Diffusion-based Text-to-Image Generation ↗](https://doi.org/10.1109/cvpr52733.2024.00898) IEEE Computer Society Conference on Computer Vision and Pattern Recognition/Proceedings - IEEE Computer Society Conference on Computer Vision and Pattern Recognition/Proceedings · no summary yet**Hao Li et al.*2024 · 17 citations* 12.
