Shef.AI / Turing IG seminar: Learn to Impute and Align with Knowledge: Striving for Unbiased and Clinically Accurate AI in Healthcare by William Cheung. Abstract: AI has been rigorously explored in healthcare in recent years. Most of the AI models for healthcare are learned from the EHR data. To achieve unbiased and clinically accurate AI, there are specific issues which should be carefully add...

We’re recruiting a dynamic Director for our new multidisciplinary Centre for Machine Intelligence (CMI), a £3.6m hub of cutting-edge research, education and innovation in Artificial Intelligence. We're on a mission to drive a revolution in AI at Sheffield and your expertise will be the driving force behind it. As Professor Guy Brown highlights in the video, the Director will help to shape the f...

Current deep neural net (dNN) systems have been claimed to extract a near human-like knowledge of language (KoL)- and use it. But is this really so? This talk makes the following points: 1. The most advanced dNNs, e.g., ChatGPT4 and beyond, fail on some of the oldest classical tests of KoL, as well as other human cognitive abilities, with implications for their use in “real world” settings. It ...

In this talk, Principal Data and Applied Scientist at Microsoft, Chew-Yean Yam discusses how the rapid advancement of AI has transformed how we interact with intelligent machines: Unravel the dynamic shifts in human-AI relations across diverse roles that we play in our society. Spark your imagination and seize the power to sculpt this new relationship that is meaningful to you.

In this talk, Turing AI World-Leading Researcher Fellow and Professor of Natural Language Processing at the University of Edinburgh, Mirella Lapata, focuses on video-to-text summarization and discusses how to best utilize multimodal information for summarizing long inputs (e.g., an hour-long TV show) into long outputs (e.g., a multi-sentence summary). We extend SummScreen (Chen et al., 2021), a...

The abundant spectrum of multi-modal data provides a significant opportunity for augmenting the training of foundational models beyond mere text. In this talk, Yutian introduces two lines of work that leverage large-scale models, trained on Internet-scale multi-modal datasets, to achieve good generalization performance. The first work trains an audio-visual model on RUclips datasets of videos a...
