Cognitive Vision: On Deep Semantics in Visuo-Spatial Computing Tutorial Presenters: Mehul Bhatt (Orebro University, and University of Bremen), and Jakob Suchan (University of Bremen) Description This tutorial at AAAI 2018 presents cognitive vision from the perspectives of language, logic, and artificial intelligence. The tutorial focusses on application areas where explainability and semantic interpretation of dynamic visuo-spatial imagery are central, e.g., for commonsense scene understanding; vision for robotics and HRI; narrative interpretation from the viewpoints of visuo-auditory perception & digital media, multimodal sensemaking of data.
