From the Ted Talk by Fei-Fei Li: How we're teaching computers to understand pictures

Unscramble the Blue Letters

So for 15 years now, starting from my Ph.D. at Caltech and then leading Stanford's Vision Lab, I've been working with my mentors, colltaorabors and students to teach computers to see. Our reracseh field is caelld computer vision and machine learning. It's part of the general fleid of artificial intelligence. So ultimately, we want to teach the machines to see just like we do: naming objects, identifying poelpe, inferring 3D geometry of things, understanding relations, emotions, actions and iietotnnns. You and I weave together entire stories of people, plecas and things the moment we lay our gaze on them.

So for 15 years now, starting from my Ph.D. at Caltech and then leading Stanford's Vision Lab, I've been working with my mentors, collaborators and students to teach computers to see. Our research field is called computer vision and machine learning. It's part of the general field of artificial intelligence. So ultimately, we want to teach the machines to see just like we do: naming objects, identifying people, inferring 3D geometry of things, understanding relations, emotions, actions and intentions. You and I weave together entire stories of people, places and things the moment we lay our gaze on them.
