SenseTime Tech Talk: AI Innovation to Power the Future

Deep learning has penetrated the fundamental verticals that are intertwined with our daily lives. In the field of computer vision, SenseTime has been able to apply its globally-renowned DNN to smart cities, chips, autonomous driving, mobile phones, apps, and fintech. In this talk, SenseTime will discuss the foreseeable potential in these areas, the fundamental research necessary to further penetrate and disrupt, and the obstacles and questions that may reveal themselves along the way. Computer vision nowadays is not solely relegated to the realm of facial recognition but also involves the much more difficult task of a machine's ability to detect and recognize objects, movements, and environments. Acquisition of large sets of data, accuracy, security, and adoption still remain at the heart of making smart vision the next step in an industrial revolution. This presentation will provide some insight into SenseTime's research and commercialization capabilities and reveal why it is now the highest-valued AI unicorn in the world.

The talk will run from 5-6pm and will continue with a networking session concluding at 7pm.
