Ingmar Posner (University of Oxford), “Learning to Perceive and to Act – Disentangling Tales from (Structured) Latent Space”
Abstract: Unsupervised learning is experiencing a renaissance. Driven by an abundance of unlabelled data and the advent of deep generative models, machines are now able to synthesise complex images, videos and sounds. In robotics, one of the most promising features of these models - the ability to learn structured latent spaces - is gradually gaining
