Abstract

Vicarious AI is an artificial intelligence core technology R&D startup based in Silicon Valley, USA. Vicarious approaches AI with a very unique brain-inspired strategy, drawing inspirations from neuroscience and cognitive science and combining them with modern computational modeling techniques such as probabilistic graphical models (PGM). In this talk, we will present Vicarious' recent papers on generative shape models and hierarchical feature learning. We will discuss our performance on public text recognition benchmarks and show how to outperform deep learning using 6000 times less amount of training data.
