rlm@432 9 System for understanding what the actors in a video are doing --
rlm@432 10 Action Recognition.
rlm@432 11
rlm@432 12 Separate action recognition into three components:
rlm@422 13
rlm@432 14 - free play
rlm@432 15 - embodied action predicates
rlm@432 16 - model alignment
rlm@432 17 - sensory imagination
rlm@422 18
rlm@432 19 * Steps
rlm@432 20
rlm@432 21 - Build cortex, a simulated environment for sensate AI
rlm@432 22 - solid bodies w/ joints
rlm@432 23 - vision
rlm@432 24 - touch
rlm@432 25 - vision
rlm@432 26 - hearing
rlm@432 27 - proprioception
rlm@432 28 - muscle contraction
rlm@425 29
rlm@432 30 - Build experimental framework for worm-actions
rlm@432 31 - embodied stream predicates
rlm@432 32 - \phi-space
rlm@432 33 - \phi-scan
rlm@425 34
rlm@432 35 * News
rlm@432 36
rlm@432 37 Experimental results:
rlm@425 38
rlm@432 39 - \phi-space actually works very well for the worm!
rlm@432 40 - self organizing touch map
rlm@425 41

rlm@432 43 * Contributions
rlm@432 44 - Built =CORTEX=, a comprehensive platform for embodied AI
rlm@432 45 experiments. Has many new features lacking in other systems, such
rlm@432 46 as sound. Easy to model/create new creatures.
rlm@432 47 - created a novel concept for action recognition by using artificial
rlm@432 48 imagination.
