Self-Supervised Learning for 3D Multimodal Perception
Potential impact of deep learning is limited due to the lack of large, annotated, and high-quality datasets in domains of interest. Annotating such datasets is laborious, costly and time-consuming. This project proposes to develop self-supervised learning systems to extract and use the relevant context given by strong prior spatio-temporal models (e.g. dense 3D reconstructions) as supervisory signals in training. This new concept will investigate model structures that encodes spatio-temporal data, and show rapid adaptation of models to new domains (few-shot learning) using trained embeddings layers (self-supervised, or prior data).

3D Scene Understanding
Simultaneous Localization and Mapping (SLAM) is a key enabling component of driverless vehicles, robotics and augmented reality. The SLAM goal is to estimate pose of the vehicle and simultaneously generate dense 3D scene reconstruction. At CSIRO we have developed and deployed state-of-the-art 3D LiDAR-based SLAM systems for the past decade. There is a new direction of research at the intersection of deep learning and geometry-based 3D SLAM. The research in this PhD programme will develop algorithms for geometry-based Deep Learning SLAM in a dynamic and unstructured environment. The PhD programme will involve the development of self or semi-supervised learning methods to address the significant weakness of most current deep networks.
-
Hyperspectral Deep Learning
Hyperspectral cameras are currently undergoing a change from bulky and expensive equipment towards mobile and portable devices. A hyperspectral camera comprises of hundreds of bands with shortwave dependencies. Compared to conventional colour cameras (RGB bands), one could use these shortwave dependencies to design and develop a deep network for object classification, semantic segmentation and scene understanding. Both spectral and spatial relationship needs to be modelled by the deep networks simultaneously. The research in this PhD programme will develop algorithms for hyperspectral deep learning. The PhD programme will involve the development of learning with self-supervision algorithms to address the significant weakness of most current deep networks.
