In particular, I will focus on understanding not just visual objects but also their connections. First, I will describe how we built ImageNet, a large-scale visual knowledge base that led to a paradigm shift in computer vision research. Next, I will show the design of a reasoning engine that uses an object relation graph to perform probabilistic logical inference in visual recognition. Third, I will present a general and powerful method for extracting deep semantics from pixels, with state-of-the-art results on multiple challenging tasks. I will conclude my talk by describing ongoing efforts and future directions toward deeper semantics, richer knowledge, and more human-like reasoning.</p><p class="MsoNormal"> </p><p class="MsoNormal">Bio: </p><p class="MsoNormal">Jia Deng is an Assistant Professor of Computer Science and Engineering at the University of Michigan.
