From a single image MYRIAD predicts distributions over sparse point trajectories autoregressively. This allows us to predict physically consistent futures in open-set environments (top) conditioned on input movements. By exploring directly in motion space, we can rapidly explore thousands of counterfactual futures, enabling planning by search - here to select a billiard shot (bottom).

Note

This repository is a landing page for Myriad and primarily exists to host the project website.

➡️ The official code lives in CompVis/flow-poke-transformer.
Please refer to that repository for code, setup, and inference instructions.
