What is the Role of 3D Representations in the Cognition of Humans and General Purpose Robots?
Leslie Kaelbling, Nancy Kanwisher, Vikash Mansinghka, Aidan Curtis, George Matheos, Aryan Zoroufi
The presentation will begin with short introductions to the question from the artificial and natural intelligence perspectives. Then it will dig a bit into three research results: a Bayesian approach to 3D perception, a method for efficient planning under the resulting uncertainty over world models, and a study of the role of spatial cognition in human behavior in a VR object-search task. The presentation will conclude with a discussion.
