Basically, as far as the Topics in Artificial Intelligence are Concerned: Computer Vision
Vision involves the ability to obtain and process visual information Human visual systems are very complex, hard to model Can a visual system be created by piecing together many smaller modules? Computer Vision
Several Successes • 3D modeling • Surgical navigation • Handwritten document recognition • Vision based computer interfaces • Vehicle Steering • Facial expression recognition
Autonomous Vehicle Driving • Mars Rover is one of the more sophisticated examples • Dozens of cameras for visual input • Other examples are cars that can parallel park themselves
Examples • Development of an advanced fire alarm system • If you were in a room, you would notice a fire visually before enough smoke builds up to trigger standard alarms, so in a quicker system, cameras will be used and when a fire is first spotted, they will set off an alarm.
More Examples • Pool Safety System was created with cameras that can detect movement and trajectories of swimmers • Notifies lifeguards when it notices any suspicious activity • Helped save several people from drowning in France and Germany
New Research Area Machines learning “like humans” • Attempts being made to teach machines how to play games such as paper, rock, scissors, based on looking at human expressions rather than hard-coded sets of rules • Further advances in such learning could produce machines that could spot intruders on video footage
