Mason Bretan, Research Scientist AI Center

Yilin Shen, Research Scientist AI Center

Samsung Research America’s AI Center is focused on several areas encompassing machine learning, computer vision, and natural language. We will give an overview of the various projects all with the goal of improving Samsung’s digital assistant, Bixby. We will dive more deeply into two projects in particular focused on machine learning and generative music from the Data Intelligence and Creative AI labs respectively. On the machine learning side we will describe a new variational framework with multitask calibration training for out-of-distribution detection. On the generative music side we will describe self-supervised methods for 1) understanding music in a manner which correlates with human perception and 2) enabling an embodied agent to generate action sequences allowing it to achieve a task grounded in music.

Free food provided if you arrive early!
