Object-centric Generative AI


Dr. Justin Dauwels is an Associate Professor at TU Delft (Signals and Systems, Department of Microelectronics) and serves as co-Director of the Safety and Security Institute at TU Delft. He is also the scientific lead of the Model-Driven Decisions Lab (MoDDL), the first lab for the Knowledge Building program between the Netherlands police and TU Delft.

His research interests include data analytics with applications to intelligent transportation systems, autonomous systems, and the analysis of human behavior and physiology. His academic lab has spawned four startups across various industries, ranging from AI for healthcare to autonomous vehicles.

Title: Object-centric Generative AI

Abstract:
Generative AI refers to a category of artificial intelligence models designed to generate new content, such as text, images, audio, or other types of data. Probably the best-known example of generative AI is ChatGPT, the fastest consumer application to reach 100 million monthly active users. Generative AI models use machine learning algorithms to learn patterns and structures from existing data, then produce new data that is similar in style or content to the training data.

In this presentation, I will begin with a tutorial on various approaches to generative AI. I will then discuss projects in our group at TU Delft focused on deep generative models, specifically object-centric generative models. I will briefly introduce novel deep generative models developed by our team. Next, I will explain how we are applying these models for rainfall nowcasting, integrating physical laws into the deep generative models. Finally, I will highlight various AI-related initiatives our team is involved in.
