MedGRPO: Multi-Task Reinforcement Learning for Heterogeneous Medical Video Understanding

Yuhao Su, Anwesa Choudhuri, Zhongpai Gao, Benjamin Planche, Van Nguyen Nguyen, Meng Zheng, Yuhan Shen, Arun Innanje, Terrence Chen, Ehsan Elhamifar, Ziyan Wu
A 531K-pair medical video benchmark (MedVidBench) covering 8 tasks, plus a multi-task RL post-training framework whose cross-dataset reward normalization keeps training stable when heterogeneous tasks are mixed. MedVidBench is the benchmark of the ECCV 2026 MedVidU Challenge.
CVPR 2026
RegionAligner: Bridging Ego-Exo Views for Object Correspondence via Unified Text-Visual Learning

RegionAligner: Bridging Ego-Exo Views for Object Correspondence via Unified Text-Visual Learning

Yuhao Su, Ehsan Elhamifar
Matches the same object between first-person and third-person views: a VLM names the task-relevant objects to narrow the search region, and multi-level supervision aligns regions across views. Works in both supervised and unsupervised settings on Ego-Exo4D.

Two-Stage Active Learning for Efficient Temporal Action Segmentation

Two-Stage Active Learning for Efficient Temporal Action Segmentation

Yuhao Su, Ehsan Elhamifar
Cuts annotation cost for temporal action segmentation by first choosing the most diverse videos, then the frames that best summarize each one. Reaches 95% of fully supervised performance with only 0.35% of frames labeled.
ECCV 2024

Under Review

Ongoing research on agentic video LLMs, interactive video understanding, and multimodal generation.
