Outreach at Visual Intelligence

Outreach constitutes one of several core activities at Visual Intelligence. As such, the research centre aims to communicate its research activity and achieved innovations through different channels and arenas for dissemination, in accordance with the Norwegian University and University College Act.

The purpose is to engage and inform the general public, Norwegian decision makers, and other relevant audience groups of the value and importance of Visual Intelligence's research output.

Our outreach and communication measures include, but are not limited to, scientific publishing, popular science dissemination, the Visual Intelligence Online Seminar Series, and social media activity.

VI Seminar 2021 #1

Deep learning is the cornerstone of artificial intelligence applications across a wide range of tasks and domains. An important component that is missing from deep learning is explainability, i.e. the ability to explain what influenced a prediction made by a deep learning-based system. Explainable deep learning is an active area of research, with new algorithms being proposed at a rapid pace. This presentation highlights existing methods for explainable deep learning, as well as how to model uncertainty in explainability.
