Abstract: The performance of an AI is nearly always associated with the amount of data you have at your disposal. Self-supervised machine learning can help – mitigating tedious human supervision – but the need for massive training datasets in modern AI seems unquenchable. Sometimes it is not the amount of data, but the mismatch of [...]

Abstract: For robots to be able to truly integrate human-populated, dynamic, and unpredictable environments, they will have to have strong adaptive capabilities. In this talk, I argue that these adaptive capabilities should leverage interaction with end users, who know how (they want) a robot to act in that environment. I will present an overview of [...]

Abstract:  Data, especially large-scale labeled data, has been a critical driver of progress in computer vision. However, many important tasks remain starved of high-quality data. Synthetic data from computer graphics is a promising solution to this challenge, but still remains in limited use. This talk will present our work on Infinigen, a procedural synthetic data [...]
