報告摘要：In this talk, the speaker will delve into various questions related to AI applications and the positive impact on society and the environment. The talk will draw on examples of specific AI applications that are already making a difference. For instance, the underwater instance segmentation, which is the process of detecting and segmenting objects in underwater image. This technology has the potential to improve underwater exploration, marine conservation, and disaster response efforts. Another example is image reconstruction based on compressive sensing. This technique allows for the reconstruction of high-quality images from a limited amount of data which can be particularly useful in applications such as medical imaging or remote sensing. The third topic is the low night image enhancement, which is a technology that enhances images taken in low-light conditions. This can improve the accuracy and effectiveness of applications such surveillance, transportation safety, and security. By exploring these and other examples of AI applications, the talk aims to demonstrate the potential of Al to make a positive impact on society and the environment, and to inspire further imnovation.
