Towards understanding 3D poses and gestures of multiple hands
-Hands are primary interacting tools that provide humans an ability to interact with their outer environments. Therefore, recognizing poses and actions (gestures) of hands from images and videos is essential to comprehensively understand the daily human intentions. Challenges occur when more than one hand appear in an image, due to...

Safety in conversational AI: Meaning is massively influenced by context
-While the NLP community has traditionally explored the ethical issues of text-based models (such as hate speech detection, inherent biases of the system etc), real-world conversations and dialogues differ significantly from structured, written text documents, and this brings with it its own unique set of safety challenges. From an understanding...

Multi-Agent Equilibria: From Verification to Modification and Beyond
-The classical notion of correctness in formal verification is not appropriate for multi-agent systems–-it does not capture the strategic behaviour of rational agents. As such, a different notion of correctness was proposed through the concept of rational verification. In doing so, we transform multi-agent systems into multi-player games and use...
