FRONTIER Federated foundational models for embodied perception

Coordinator: CESKE VYSOKE UCENI TECHNICKE V PRAZE (CZ)

Computer vision is beginning to see a paradigm shift with large-scale foundational models that demonstrate impressive results on a wide range of recognition tasks. While achieving impressive results, these models learn only static 2D image representations based on observed correlations between still images and natural language. However, our world is three-dimensional, full of dynamic events and causal interactions. We argue that the next scientific challenge is to invent foundational models for embodied perception – that is perception for systems that have a physical body, operate in a dynami…

About Horizon Europe (2021–2027)

Horizon Europe is the EU's current research and innovation programme, covering 2021 to 2027 with a budget of roughly €95.5 billion. Its three pillars are Excellent Science (frontier research and mobility), Global Challenges and European Industrial Competitiveness (mission-driven collaborative projects in health, climate, digital, security and food) and Innovative Europe (the EIC and EIT). It also funds five EU Missions targeting cancer, climate adaptation, smart cities, oceans and soils.

EU contribution: €2.5M awarded to the consortium. The project runs over approximately 5 years from 2024-01-01 to 2028-12-31.
