“From Perception to Action: Multimodal Embodied AI” Seminar: Prof. Winston Hsu (National Taiwan University)
Lunedì 16 Giugno – ore 11:30 – Aula 120 Centro Didattico Morgagni, V.le Morgagni 40-44
Abstract: In this talk, we will showcase a series of research works bridging “perception” and “action,” demonstrating advanced scenarios supporting robotics and automotive applications while incorporating human-in-the-loop methodologies. We will envision future possibilities for multimodal embodied AI and emphasize the importance of efficiency and sustainability in cloud- edge-hybrid inference systems.
