Title: Robust Multi-Task Vision
Abstract: I will open the talk with a discussion on understanding and developing perception in conjunction with downstream action. I will follow by showing our latest works on this front, toward a robust multi-task vision. Namely, mutliMAE, Omnidata, and 3D common corruptions. If we have time, I will show an overview of a few other projects and will end with an open-ended discussion.
