    Grounded world models in biological organisms and future embodied AI

    Giovanni Pezzulo, Davide Nuzzi, Marco D'Alessandro, Riccardo Proietti, Roberto Bottini, Paul Cisek

    q-bio.NC · cs.AI

    Recent advances in generative and embodied AI have been driven by large-scale predictive learning over multimodal data. However, the resulting systems remain largely based on passive training regimes where linguistic regularities create the scaffold onto which information from other modalities is attached. Conversely, neuroscience and cognitive science suggest that biological intelligence is organized in the opposite way, where grounded world...

    Classifying daily activities needs posture, reconstructing them needs motion

    Arefeh Farahmandi, Gunnar Blohm

    q-bio.NC · cs.AI · cs.IR · cs.LG

    Humans recognize movements effortlessly, even from noisy and complex visual input. But what information in the stimulus allows humans to rapidly classify movements? No framework has systematically compared different strategies of movement analysis to address this question. Here, we used videos of 16 daily activities from the MoVi dataset and compared three strategies: Temporal Movement Primitives (TMPs), which decompose movements into...
