Identifying a melody by studying a musician’s body language
Music gesture artificial intelligence tool developed at the MIT-IBM Watson AI Lab uses body movements to isolate the sounds of individual instruments.
What jumps out in a photo changes the longer we look
Researchers capture our shifting gaze in a model that suggests how to prioritize visual information based on viewing duration.
Visualizing the world beyond the frame
Researchers test how far artificial intelligence models can go in dreaming up varied poses and colors of objects and animals in photos.
“Doing machine learning the right way”
Professor Aleksander Madry strives to build machine-learning models that are more reliable, understandable, and robust.
A new model of vision
Computer model of face processing could reveal how the brain produces richly detailed visual representations so quickly.
To self-drive in the snow, look under the road
Weather’s a problem for autonomous cars. MIT’s new system shows promise by using “ground-penetrating radar” instead of cameras or lasers.
Bridging the gap between human and machine vision
Researchers develop a more robust machine-vision architecture by studying how human vision responds to changing viewpoints of objects.
This object-recognition dataset stumped the world’s best computer vision models
Objects are posed in varied positions and shot at odd angles to spur new AI techniques.
Using computers to view the unseen
A new computational imaging method could change how we view hidden information in scenes.
Helping machines perceive some laws of physics
Model registers “surprise” when objects in a scene do something unexpected, which could be used to build smarter AI.
Predicting people's driving personalities
System from MIT CSAIL sizes up drivers as selfish or selfless. Could this help self-driving cars navigate in traffic?
System prevents speedy drones from crashing in unfamiliar areas
Drones can fly at high speeds to a destination while keeping safe “backup” plans if things go awry.
What a little more computing power can do
Commercial cloud service providers give artificial intelligence computing at MIT a boost.
Why did my classifier just mistake a turtle for a rifle?
Two longtime friends explore how computer vision systems go awry.
Teaching artificial intelligence to create visuals with more common sense
An MIT/IBM system could help artists and designers make quick tweaks to visuals while also helping researchers identify “fake” images.
