A master's degree and undergraduate researchers from the Data-driven AI Security HCI Lab (DASH Lab) participated in the AI Grand Challenge organized by IITP(the Institute for Information and Communication Technology Promotion) and won the first place.
AI Grand Challenge is a challenging and competitive R&D competition in which participants compete by developing algorithms that address the challenging project. The "2020 AI Grand Challenge" will be held as four stages for three years until 2022 with four tracks, including various emergency situations (behavioral cognition), violence (voice recognition), classification of daily waste (object recognition), and reduction of power consumption through artificial intelligence optimization. The goal of this challenge is to create a convenient and safe living environment through artificial intelligence technology.
Professor Simon Woo’s research team participated in the behavioral recognition track (track 1) and won the first place by developing an algorithm that recognizes abnormal behavior of emergency patients based on image analysis.
The AI Grand Challenge, which marks its fourth competition this year, will be held as four stages until 2022. This year, a total of 134 teams, including universities, research institutes, and companies, and 566 people participated in the first stage competition, and five excellent research teams were selected for each track. A total of 20 outstanding research teams will participate in the second stage competition, which will be held offline in November this year, with additional 200 million won (4 billion won in total) research funds. In the second stage of the competition, graduate students from the Department of Computer Engineering (Joon-yeop Jeon, So-won Jeon, etc.) undergraduate researcher (Jung-ho Kim, Gun-woo Park, and Hee-sung Kim, etc.) and students from the Department of Applied Artificial Intelligence and the Department of Data Science will participate.
