Computer Vision & Cognitive Robotics Deep Dive

Explore the frontier of visual learning, intelligent agents, and cognitive robotics. Join us for an evening with the Active Perception Group (APG) and the Visual Representation and Processing Lab to see how machines are learning to interpret the complex world around them.

Featured guests include:

Prof. Yezhou Yang: Associate Professor, SCAI; Director, Active Perception Group; Amazon Scholar; NSF CAREER Award Recipient
Prof. Baoxin Li: Professor, SCAI; Director, Visual Representation and Processing Lab
PhD Researchers from the Active Perception Group and ASU robotics initiatives

Discover cutting-edge research on visual recognition beyond appearance, action understanding, and vision-language integration for autonomous vehicles. Learn how researchers are advancing automated mobility—from traffic scene reconstruction to socially adept autonomous driving—supported by partners like Qualcomm and Amazon. The event will also highlight innovations in multimedia processing and assistive technologies, featuring live demonstrations of active perception systems and robotic manipulation tasks.

Whether you are exploring career paths in autonomous systems or the algorithms behind human action interpretation, this deep dive offers a direct line to state-of-the-art computer vision research.
