Funded Activity Summary

Open-world computer vision by detecting and tracking hierarchical objects. This project examines the problem of detecting and tracking objects using computer vision. A fundamental limitation of current algorithms is that they require labelled training data for every object class and therefore cannot be trusted to operate in unconstrained environments. This project aims to address this limitation using novel techniques that incorporate hierarchical relationships between object classes. Expected outcomes include new paradigms for algorithm design and evaluation, and establishing the problem as a focus of international research. The key practical benefit would be to accelerate the wider deployment of visual perception in applications such as autonomous vehicles, interactive robotics, and video analysis.
