Your future responsibilities:


Considering on a real-word smart home use case, we will focus in particular on strengthening the classification and tracking of objects in picture sequences showing the inside of refrigerators.

Extending on our available Concept Bottleneck models that integrate deep learning algorithms (Mask R-CNN networks) with structural aspects from model-based reasoning, we will work with the resulting list of tags associated with objects.

The algorithms explored and developed will work with these tags as input and will aim at classifying the objects more accurately via exploiting spatio-temporal information to be extracted from the picture sequence.
