Interactive sound simulation: Rendering immersive soundscapes in games and virtual reality 

In this webinar led by Microsoft Principal Researcher Dr. Nikunj Raghuvanshi, learn the ins and outs of creating practical, high-quality sound simulations. You will get an overview of the three components of sound simulation: synthesis, propagation, and spatialization. For each, we will review the underlying physics, research techniques, practical considerations, and open research questions. Special focus will be on Project Triton: a sound propagation technology being designed at Microsoft Research that ships in major games…

ZeRO & Fastest BERT: Increasing the scale and speed of deep learning training in DeepSpeed webinar 

The latest trend in AI is that larger natural language models provide better accuracy; however, larger models are difficult to train because of cost, time, and ease of code integration. With the goal of advancing large model training by improving scale, speed, cost, and usability for model developers across the world, Microsoft made the DeepSpeed library open source in February of 2020. In this webinar, the DeepSpeed team will discuss what DeepSpeed is, how to use it…

Discovering hidden connections in art with deep, interpretable visual analogies webinar 

Image retrieval systems allow individuals to find images that are semantically similar to a query image. This serves as the backbone of reverse image search engines and many product recommendation engines. Restricting an image retrieval system to particular subsets of images can yield new insights into relationships in the visual world. In this webinar, Microsoft Research Development Engineer Mark Hamilton presents a novel method for specializing image retrieval systems called conditional image retrieval. When applied over large…

Research Intern – Immunomics 

The human immune system is an astonishing diagnostic system, continuously adapting itself to detect any signal of disease in the body. Essentially, the state of the immune system tells a story about virtually everything affecting a person’s health. It may sound like science fiction, but what if we could “read” this story? Our scientific understanding of human health would be fundamentally advanced. And more importantly, this would provide a foundation for a new generation of…

Research Intern – Machine Vision for Long Standing Video Streams 

Most practical machine vision systems for long standing video streams require humans in the loop for ensuring the performance of the AI systems. For example, periodically generating labelled data and testing the classifiers and retraining when necessary etc. In this internship we will focus on developing strategies that will use active learning to develop parsimonious sampling schemes to minimize the cost of periodic human labelling. A key feature of these strategies will be to reduce…
