We present a method of constructing and using a cascade consisting of a left- and a right-sequential finite-state transducer (FST), T1 and T2, for part-of-speech (POS) disambiguation. Compared to an HMM, this FST cascade has the advantage of significantly higher processing speed, but at the cost of slightly lower accuracy. Applications such as Information Retrieval, where the speed can be more important than accuracy, could benefit from this approach.
In the process of tagging, we first assign every word a unique ambiguity class c_i that can be looked up in a lexicon encoded by a sequential FST. Every c_i is denoted by a single symbol, e.g. [ADJ_NOUN], although it represents a set of alternative tags that a given word can occur with. The sequence of the c_i of all words of one sentence is the input to our FST cascade. It is mapped by T1, from left to right, to a sequence of reduced ambiguity classes r_i. Every r_i is denoted by a single symbol, although it represents a set of alternative tags. Intuitively, T1 eliminates the less likely tags from c_i, thus creating r_i. Finally, T2 maps the sequence of r_i, from right to left, to a sequence of single POS tags t_i. Intuitively, T2 selects the most likely t_i from every r_i.
The probabilities of all t_i, r_i, and c_i are used only at compile time, not at run time. They do not (directly) occur in the FSTs, but are “implicitly contained” in their structure. 2000/056

To make robots autonomous in real-world everyday spaces, they should be able to learn from their interactions within these spaces, how to best execute tasks specified by non-expert users in a safe and reliable way. To do so requires sequential decision-making skills that combine machine learning, adaptive planning and control in uncertain environments as well as solving hard combinatorial optimization problems. Our research combines expertise in reinforcement learning, computer vision, robotic control, sim2real transfer, large multimodal foundation models and neural combinatorial optimization to build AI-based architectures and algorithms to improve robot autonomy and robustness when completing everyday complex tasks in constantly changing environments. More details on our research can be found in the Explore section below.
For a robot to be useful it must be able to represent its knowledge of the world, share what it learns and interact with other agents, in particular humans. Our research combines expertise in human-robot interaction, natural language processing, speech, information retrieval, data management and low code/no code programming to build AI components that will help next-generation robots perform complex real-world tasks. These components will help robots interact safely with humans and their physical environment, other robots and systems, represent and update their world knowledge and share it with the rest of the fleet. More details on our research can be found in the Explore section below.
Visual perception is a necessary part of any intelligent system that is meant to interact with the world. Robots need to perceive the structure, the objects, and people in their environment to better understand the world and perform the tasks they are assigned. Our research combines expertise in visual representation learning, self-supervised learning and human behaviour understanding to build AI components that help robots understand and navigate in their 3D environment, detect and interact with surrounding objects and people and continuously adapt themselves when deployed in new environments. More details on our research can be found in the Explore section below.

The research we conduct on expressive visual representations is applicable to visual search, object detection, image classification and the automatic extraction of 3D human poses and shapes that can be used for human behavior understanding and prediction, human-robot interaction or even avatar animation. We also extract 3D information from images that can be used for intelligent robot navigation, augmented reality and the 3D reconstruction of objects, buildings or even entire cities.
Our work covers the spectrum from unsupervised to supervised approaches, and from very deep architectures to very compact ones. We’re excited about the promise of big data to bring big performance gains to our algorithms but also passionate about the challenge of working in data-scarce and low-power scenarios.
Furthermore, we believe that a modern computer vision system needs to be able to continuously adapt itself to its environment and to improve itself via lifelong learning. Our driving goal is to use our research to deliver embodied intelligence to our users in robotics, autonomous driving, via phone cameras and any other visual means to reach people wherever they may be.
