AIML Special Guest Presentation: Exploring the Earth and space with micro-satellites
- Date: Wed, 3 Apr 2024
- Location: AIML
In the past, space utilisation has required long preparation times and high budgets, but the 50 kg optical satellites we have developed and have successfully launched six times can be fabricated in a few years with a budget of 3-7 M USD and can be launched for 1-2 M USD, e.g. using carpool launch opportunities. This means that universities and relatively small companies can own and operate their own satellites, even if they are not national space organisations.
AIML Research Seminar: Anatomically Aware Brain MRI Segmentation of the Cerebral Vasculature
- Date: Tue, 19 Mar 2024
- Location: AIML
As humans, we learn to know what is abnormal by establishing an understanding of what the ‘norm’ actually is. Medical tasks require specific knowledge (e.g. radiologists need to be highly trained), and much is known about healthy, ‘normal’ brain anatomy- documented by anatomical atlases and brain models. This knowledge can then be applied to identify abnormal brain structure from medical images, to identify pathology.

AIML Special Presentation: Beyond Sight: Robots Mastering Social and Physical Awareness
- Date: Tue, 13 Feb 2024
- Location: AIML
In the rapidly advancing field of robotics, understanding both social and physical dynamics is crucial for seamlessly integrating robots into dynamic human-centric spaces. Operating effectively in such environments requires a robust visual perception system capable of comprehending physical scenes while anticipating and understanding nuanced human social behaviours.
AIML Guest Presentation: Optimisation-centric Generalisations of Bayesian Inference
- Date: Wed, 24 Jan 2024
- Location: AIML
Dr Knoblauch summarises a recent line of research and advocate for an optimization-centric generalisation of Bayesian inference. The main thrust of this argument relies on identifying the tension between the assumptions motivating the Bayesian posterior and the realities of modern Bayesian Machine Learning. Our generalisation is a useful conceptual device, but also has methodological merit: it can address various challenges that arise when the standard Bayesian paradigm is deployed in Machine Learning—including robustness to model misspecification, robustness to poorly chosen priors, and inference in intractable models
