Albion College Mathematics and Computer Science Colloquium



Title: Teaching Robots to See
Speaker:Nathan Sprague
Assistant Professor of Computer Science
Department of Mathematics and Computer Science

Abstract: I will present some recent research at the intersection of machine learning, computer vision, and robotics. The objective of my work is to understand how machines and organisms can learn to extract relevant information from the noise and confusion of unprocessed visual input. I will also describe recent work at Kalamazoo College to develop a simulator and controller framework for the iRobot Create robotic platform.
