SMU Office of Research and Tech Transfer - Artificial Intelligence, or AI, makes us look better in selfies, obediently tells us the weather when we ask Alexa for it, and rolls out self-drive cars. It is the technology that enables machines to learn from experience and perform human-like tasks. As a whole, AI contains many subfields, including natural language processing, computer vision, and deep learning. Most of the time, the specific technology at work is machine learning, which focuses on the development of algorithms that analyses data and makes predictions, and relies heavily on human supervision.

Even before countries began rolling out their vaccination campaigns, Pfizer, Moderna and AstraZeneca's announcements had already proved fortifying shots. Stocks rallied and healthcare workers celebrated in the wake of the vaccine news late last year. But months on, that early euphoria has evaporated, replaced by uncertainty and debate over vaccine safety, possible side effects and varying degrees of citizen reluctance. Artificial intelligence (AI) researchers and health experts modeling COVID-19's spread have warned that for vaccines to be useful in curbing the pandemic, a significant percentage of the population must be vaccinated to reach herd immunity. But, as SMU's Vice Provost of Research Professor Archan Misra pointed out at an AI-centered panel discussion, held in conjunction with the SMU- Global Young Scientists Summit (GYSS) on 15 January 2021, from a purely self-interested point of view, each person would be best served if all the others got vaccinated and they themselves did not have to vaccinate--because that would stop the spread of the virus without their having to take on the possible risks of side effects. To account for these considerations, Professor Misra explained, the most powerful AI-based epidemiology models actually need to incorporate concepts from the behavioral sciences and game theory.

If you already tried to upload some of your pictures to OneDrive, you may be aware that Microsoft's cloud storage service is able to automatically tag your photos and categorize them, group them by location, and more. By adding more data to user-generated content, Microsoft's artificial intelligence tools also make it easier for OneDrive users to find relevant pictures using OneDrive's search feature. But could artificial intelligence accomplish the same sort of magic with video content? That's exactly what Chia-Wen Lin and Min Sun, professors in the Electrical Engineering department of National Tsinghua University in Taiwan, are trying to do. In a new blog post on the Microsoft Research blog, the company explains that both professors partnered in 2015 with Dr. Tao Mei, lead researcher in multimedia at Microsoft Research Asia who worked on a new image recognition, segmentation, and captioning dataset called COCO (Common Objects in Context). Professor Sun created a video title generation method based on deep learning to automatically find the special moments--or highlights--in videos, and generate an accurate and interesting title for the highlights.
