Combined knowledge from linguistics, psychology, and natural language processing. In one project they study whether and how generic sentences — which typically express (perhaps stereotypical) generalisations — should be interpreted, and whether corresponding implicit generalisations can be found in computational language models trained by (huge) linguistic corpora. In the other project, the main object of… Continue reading Stereotypes in Language & Computational Language Models
“The AI community has been focusing on developing fixes for harmful bias and discrimination, through so-called ‘debiasing algorithms’ that either try to fix data for known or expected biases, or constrain the outcomes of a given predictive model to produce ‘fair’ outcomes. We argue that creating more AI solutions to fix harmful biases in data… Continue reading Understanding and mitigating bias in AI automated systems
“Biases in data can be both explicit and implicit. A simple two-word phrase can carry strong contestations, and entire research fields, such as post-colonial studies, are devoted to them. However, these sometimes subtle (and sometimes not so subtle) differences in voice are as yet not often found in the results of automatic analyses or datasets… Continue reading Building Cultural AI

This lecture overviews Deep Autoencoders that has many applications in image denoising, classification, generation and in object pose estimation. It covers the following topics in detail: unsupervised learning, autoencoder principles, deep autoencoder types (Sparse/variational/ Convolutional/Adversarial Autoencoders) and their applications.
This resource provides links to representative repositories of 3D faces. In the last few years, some 3D face datasets have been acquired and made publicly available. Typically, these datasets have been designed targeting a specific application. For example, some datasets have many identities and so are mostly used for 3D face recognition, while others also… Continue reading Digital libraries for 3D human face
