Description

Towards Human-like Machine Perception for Embodied AI. This project aims to investigate human-like visual perception, whereby AI machines can see and interpret the world like a human. The expected outputs will empower AI machines with the abilities of human-centered visual recognition and annotation-efficient learning through a set of deep learning techniques, and the ability to actively gather visual information through a reinforcement learning methodology (for decision support). This research is fundamental to the creation of embodied AI machines, which are expected to provide assistance to humans in industry, education and health. It thus will indicate immediate applications embracing autonomous vehicles and domestic robotics, providing scientific, social and economic benefits for Australia.. Scheme: Discovery Early Career Researcher Award. Field: 0801 - Artificial Intelligence and Image Processing. Lead: Dr Wenguan Wang
