Proactive Visual Computing & Learning

 

Visuals represent the main channel through which humans, or their robotics agents, understand and maneuver through their living environment and interact with each other. As such, many visual computing and learning technologies and devices have been developed and applied in emerging applications, such as autonomous systems, augmented reality, robotics manipulation and digital production. A research trend has been introducing proactive sensing and learning, from which agents progressively interact with outside to improve the capability of sensing and recognition.

Quantum Computing

 

Quantum computing is an interdisciplinary field of computer science, information theory, and quantum physics, providing a novel and more powerful mechanism for processing information and realizing computation. A quantum computer could be useful for solving classically intractable problems such as chemistry, combinatory optimization, factoring, etc.
