Her award-winning presentation examined critical issues surrounding algorithmic biases, particularly in maternal health disparities, showcasing her commitment to advancing equitable practices in machine learning research.
Roboticists have employed natural language models to help robots mimic human reasoning over the past few years. However, Yokoyama, a Ph.D. student in robotics, said these models create a “bottleneck” that prevents agents from picking up on visual cues such as room type, size, décor, and lighting.
Yokoyama presented a new framework for semantic reasoning at the Institute of Electrical and Electronic Engineers (IEEE) International Conference on Robotics and Automation (ICRA) last month in Yokohama, Japan. ICRA is the world’s largest robotics conference.
Yokoyama earned a best paper award in the Cognitive Robotics category with his Vision-Language Frontier Maps (VLFM) proposal.
As the 2023-24 academic year comes to a close, the Ivan Allen College of Liberal Arts community came together for the annual student, faculty, and staff celebration.
The College of Computing’s countdown to commencement began on April 11 when students, faculty, and staff converged at the 33rd Annual Awards Celebration.
