Research by PhD student Brok Laschowski was featured in a keynote talk by the President and CEO of NVIDIA. Brok’s research focuses on deep learning for visual intelligence, modelling the visual information processing neural networks in the brain. These brain-inspired algorithms are used for autonomous robot control.
