Interpretable Direction

Interpretable direction research focuses on understanding and utilizing directional information within various data modalities, aiming to improve the accuracy, efficiency, and interpretability of models and algorithms. Current research emphasizes developing methods to identify and leverage meaningful directional cues in diverse applications, including sound source localization (using algorithms like LSDD and MUSIC, often with microphone arrays), image and video processing (employing GANs and diffusion models for disentangled editing and manipulation), and robot navigation (through visual learning and home vector estimation). This work has significant implications for fields like multimedia content creation, robotics, audio processing, and computer vision, enabling more robust and human-understandable systems.
