Research worldwide on the creation of intelligent machines is evolving rapidly. We are contributing to this development through exploring the integration of advances in deep learning, symbolic reasoning, vision, language and robotics. This includes work on systems that combine data from different sources, including video, text, images, sounds, and remotely-sensed data. It also includes research on approaches that require little or no supervision in learning from raw data, for example, in giving meaning to words and text through learning from textual descriptions of video clips.Underpinning this integrative research, we undertake fundamental theoretical work on qualitative spatial reasoning, building on our pioneering work on the Region Connection Calculus (RCC) algorithm development for human pose estimation automatic textual alignment and segmentation user modelling and personalisation corpus-based language analysis and robotics, particularly in the areas of manipulation and planning.
