Description

Generative Visual Pre-training on Unlabelled Big Data. This project aims to develop a generative visual pre-training of large-scale deep neural networks on unlabelled big data. Developing pre-trained visual models that are accurate, robust, and efficient for downstream tasks is a keystone of modern computer vision, but it poses challenges and knowledge gaps to existing unsupervised representation learning. Expected outcomes include new theories and algorithms for unsupervised visual pre-training, which are anticipated to deepen our understanding of visual representation and make it easier to build and deploy computer vision applications and services. Examples of benefits include modernising machines in manufacturing and farming with visual intelligence. . Scheme: Discovery Projects. Field: 4611 - Machine Learning. Lead: A/Prof Chang Xu
