SUMMARY:Driving Autonomy: The journey towards driverless vehicles
DESCRIPTION:\nProf Ingmar Posner\, Oxbotica\nAbstract:\nMobile autonomy\, a
 nd autonomous driving in particular\, has captured the public imagination.
  Many of us are excited about what a future of self-driving cars holds in 
 store. However\, mobile autonomy harbours tangible opportunity far beyond 
 the confines of the road. In this talk\, I will describe some of the work 
 that Oxbotica carries out in both on-road and off-road autonomy\, and how 
 the notion of vehicles experiencing their environment shapes the technolog
 y we develop. I will argue that a systems view of mobile autonomy affords 
 particular opportunities in AI and poses some very interesting challenges.
 \nBio:\nProf. Ingmar Posner leads the Applied Artificial Intelligence Lab 
 (A2I) at Oxford University. He also serves as Deputy Director of the Oxfor
 d Robotics Institute\, which he co-founded in 2016. Ingmar has a significa
 nt track record in designing machine learning approaches (shallow and deep
 ) which address core challenges in AI and machine learning. Ingmar's goal 
 is to enable robots to robustly and effectively operate in complex\, real-
 world environments. His research is guided by a vision to create machines 
 which constantly improve through experience. In doing so Ingmar's work exp
 lores a number of intellectual challenges at the heart of robot learning\,
  such as machine introspection in perception and decision making\, data ef
 ficient learning from demonstration\, transfer learning and the learning o
 f complex tasks via a set of less complex ones. All the while Ingmar’s i
 ntellectual curiosity remains grounded in real-world robotics applications
  such as autonomous driving\, logistics\, manipulation and space explorati
 on. In 2014 Ingmar co-founded Oxbotica\, a leading provider of mobile auto
 nomy software solutions.\nHelp Promote this Event\n[wpdm_package id='2257'
