Olaf Hellwich (Science of Intelligence), “State Vectors of Computer Vision at Time t=now. Perspectives, Particles and Predictions”

We take varying perspectives to the state of the art in Computer Vision: e.g. from SCIoI, disciplinary and interdisciplinary viewpoints. Sampling from the multi-modal state vector distribution, we inspect currently exciting developments: e.g. the integration of computer vision and language processing, the use of biological principles in synthetic systems, and self supervision. Generalizing from the examples, we dare to extrapolate societal impact, e.g. w.r.t. the application of artificial intelligence, defense questions and the future of evolution.
