End-to-end Generative Pre-training for Multimodal Video Captioning
Posted by Paul Hongsuck Seo and Arsha Nagrani, Research Scientists, Google Research, Perception Team Multimodal video captioning systems utilize both the video frames and speech to generate natural language descriptions (captions) of videos. Such systems are stepping stones towards the…
Creating artificial intelligence that acts more human by ‘knowing that it knows’
Development of metamemory in AI system allows it to adjust its understanding based on what it already knows, learning and evolving based on its environment as humans do. Read More
Advocating for the LGBTQ+ community in AI research
Research scientist, Kevin McKee, tells how his early love of science fiction and social psychology inspired his career, and how he’s helping advance research in ‘queer fairness’, support human-AI collaboration, and study the effects of AI on the LGBTQ+ community.…
Researchers investigate the links between facial recognition and Alzheimer’s disease
In recent years Alzheimer’s disease has been on the rise throughout the world and is rarely diagnosed at an early stage when it can still be effectively controlled. Using artificial intelligence, researchers conducted a study to identify whether human-computer interfaces…
Kyrgyzstan to King’s Cross: the star baker cooking up code
My day can vary, it really depends on which phase of the project I’m on. Let’s say we want to add a feature to our product – my tasks could range from designing solutions and working with the team to…
Deep Learning with Label Differential Privacy
Posted by Pasin Manurangsi and Chiyuan Zhang, Research Scientists, Google Research Over the last several years, there has been an increased focus on developing differential privacy (DP) machine learning (ML) algorithms. DP has been the basis of several practical deployments…
Tiny robotic crab is smallest-ever remote-controlled walking robot
Engineers have developed the smallest-ever remote-controlled walking robot — and it comes in the form of a tiny, adorable peekytoe crab. Just a half-millimeter wide, the tiny crabs can bend, twist, crawl, walk, turn and even jump. Although the research…
Roboticists go off road to compile data that could train self-driving ATVs
Researchers took an all-terrain vehicle on wild rides through tall grass, loose gravel and mud to gather data about how the ATV interacted with a challenging, off-road environment. They drove the heavily instrumented ATV aggressively at speeds up to 30…
