CMU Helps Compile Largest Collection of First-Person Videos
–CMU School of Computer Science
Researchers at Carnegie Mellon University helped compile and will have access to the largest collection of point-of-view videos in the world. These videos could enable artificial intelligence to understand the world from a first-person point of view and unlock a new wave of virtual assistants, augmented reality and robotics. Until now, most of the video used to train computer vision models came from the third-person point of view. The first-person, or egocentric, video included in this collection will allow researchers to train computer vision systems to see the world as humans do. "For the first time, we'll have enough data to be able to teach computers to see what we see," said Kris Kitani, an associate research professor in the Robotics Institute who led CMU's efforts to collect data.
