SCIEN Colloquia

Speaker: Professor David Fleet (Google DeepMind and University of Toronto) Title: 3d Structure and Motion from Single Particle Cryo-EM Video: Click to play Abstract: One of the foremost challenges in structural biology concerns the inference of atomic-resolution 3D biomolecular structure from electron cryo-microscopy (cryo-EM).  The problem, in a nutshell, is a form of multi-view 3D […]

Speaker: Dr. Chiao Liu (Meta) Title:AI Sensors for Wearable Devices Video: Click here to play Abstract: Meta’s vision is to build AI glasses that deliver personal super-intelligence in a sleek, all-day wearable form. Glasses are the ideal platform, enabling AI to see what you see, hear what you hear, and interact with you seamlessly throughout […]

Speaker: Dr. Amit Kohli (UC Berkeley) Title: Computational aberration correction beyond deconvolution Video: Click here to play Abstract: There is no such thing as a perfect lens. Ever-present optical aberrations necessitate intricate engineering of multiple optical elements to achieve the high-resolution, high-quality imaging required for science. This process is costly and difficult, particularly for systems […]

Speaker: Nadav Orbach (Founder and CEO at RealSense) Title:RealSense – The Visual Cortex of Embodied AI Video: Click here to view (Note: Problem in recording caused a blue cast - our apologies) Abstract:As machines evolve from tools to autonomous agents, their ability to perceive and interpret the physical world becomes the foundation of intelligence. This […]

Speaker: Dr. Qianqian Wang  (UC Berkeley): Title: Learning to Perceive the 4D World   Video: Click here to view Abstract:Perceiving the 4D world (i.e., 3D space over time) from visual input is essential for human interaction with the physical environment. While computer vision has made remarkable progress in 3D scene understanding, much of it remains […]
