The University of Florida was awarded a $488,754 Project Grant from the National Science Foundation Division of Information and Intelligent Systems to develop a unifying stochastic framework for temporally consistent computer vision models. The four-year award, made on January 1, 2022 under the Computer and Information Science and Engineering federal grant program (CFDA #47.070), will support research to combine sequential Monte Carlo methods with neural networks. This will create a trainable stochastic framework for computer vision tasks that enforces temporal consistency. Specifically, the awardee will develop novel techniques to extract semantic information and generate large-scale reconstructions of entire orchards at the granularity of individual leaves. The project aims to provide research and training opportunities to students on applying artificial intelligence to agricultural problems and develop entrepreneurial skills. It seeks to advance computer vision algorithms and enable the design of autonomous systems that can interpret dynamic, unstructured environments through demonstrations using novel agricultural robotics.
