Post-Pretraining in Vision, and Language Foundation Models

Foundation Models are reshaping the landscape of artificial intelligence, offering unprecedented capabilities across vision, language, and multi-modal tasks. From understanding spatial structure in images to aligning language models with the visual world, these innovations are opening up new frontiers in AI research.

We are excited to welcome Yuki Asano, full Professor at the University of Technology Nuremberg and head of the Fundamental AI (FunAI) Lab, to our joint heidelberg.ai / NCT Data Science Seminar series.
In this in-person event, Yuki Asano will present recent advances in building on top of pretrained Foundation Models to boost performance in dense prediction, efficient fine-tuning, and cross-modal understanding.

We look forward to your participation in this exciting seminar, where you will valuable insights into how cutting-edge methods are pushing the boundaries of what Foundation Models can achieve.
