PhD Thesis Defense
Understanding and Mitigating Biases in Evaluation
Abstract: There are many problems in real life that involve collecting and aggregating evaluation from people, such as hiring, peer grading and conference peer review. In this thesis, we focus on three sources of biases that arise in such problems, and propose methods to mitigate them. First, we study human bias, that is, the bias [...]

This natural behavior is lost, however, for lower-limb amputees, as current control strategies of prosthetic legs do not typically consider environment perception. With [...]

MSR Thesis Talk: Dennis Melamed
Title: Learnable Spatio-Temporal Map Embeddings for Deep Inertial Localization Abstract: Pedestrian localization systems often fuse inertial odometry with map information via hand-defined methods to reduce odometry drift, but such methods are sensitive to noise and struggle to generalize across odometry sources. To address the robustness problem in map utilization, we propose a system that forms a [...]

Learning to Perceive Videos for Embodiment
Abstract: Video understanding has achieved tremendous success in computer vision tasks, such as action recognition, visual tracking, and visual representation learning. Recently, this success has gradually been converted into facilitating robots and embodied agents to interact with the environments. In this talk, I am going to introduce our recent efforts on extracting self-supervisory signals and [...]
