AIML Research Seminar: Category Level 6D Object Pose Estimation and Tracking using Diffusion

In our daily lives, we constantly estimate the 6D pose of objects—whether it's picking up a coffee mug, catching a football on a Saturday afternoon, or avoiding a toy car rolling toward us. Even if we have never seen these particular objects before, our extensive knowledge of the world and the stereo vision of our eyes enable us to perform these tasks effortlessly. However, for a robot or computer with only a single image, this task is extremely challenging.

Human performance in the lab and in complex environments

Humans actively gather visual information to guide interaction with their environment. Human vision is very efficient and highlights how a small amount of data can be used to drive inferences that can be acted on. Our group investigates the basic mechanisms underlying active vision. We also work with industry to translate these results for outcomes relevant to human-AI interaction in complex environments. In this talk, Prof Ma-Wyatt provides an overview of her work in these areas and highlight opportunities for collaboration.

AIML Research Seminar: Real-time Prediction for Non-stationary Data Streams

This talk focused on one of the most challenging issues in non-stationary data streams, known as concept drift. Concept drift occurs when the pattern of data changes over time, making models trained on historical data less effective at predicting new data patterns. This inability to adapt compromises the performance of well-trained machine learning models. From the perspective of concept drift adaptation, this presentation will introduce three general strategies for updating learned models with newly arrived data, aimed at mitigating the impact of concept drift.

AIML Special Presentation: Learning Spatial context-aware Global Visual Feature Representation for Instance Image Retrieval

Professor Lei Wang

In instance image retrieval, considering local spatial information within an image has proven effective to boost retrieval performance. It will be highly valuable to make ordinary global image representations spatial-context-aware because global representation based image retrieval is appealing thanks to its algorithmic simplicity, low memory cost, and being friendly to sophisticated data structures. This talk describes a novel feature learning framework proposed for instance image retrieval, which embeds local spatial context information into the learned global feature representations.
