Zusammenfassung der Projektergebnisse
There could not be a more timely topic in AI as Autonomous Learning. During the term of our priority programme AI has developed massively and disruptively, with Deep Learning and Deep RL emerging and now dominating the field. The big-data ML problem of extracting a predictor when enough data is available made enormous progress. But the core scientific challenges defined by our initiative are still pressing: • Let AI be more autonomous about its choice of representation, model, structural priors, hyperparameters, so that it can generalize truly strongly from the available data. • Let AI be more autonomous in collecting and generating its own data. • Realize strongly generalizing AI on real-world autonomous systems, to ensure that AI can also capture, model and exploit the particular structure of the one physical world we live in. The goal of the priority programme was to foster research to tackle these scientific challenges, to support the qualification of young researchers in these research areas, and to support our PIs and young researchers to strengthen their impact and networking with the growing local and international communities working on these research areas. The scientific and structural impact of the second phase of our priority programme was substantial. With an estimated 129 peer-reviewed papers (51 journal, 78 conference), 12 PhD students graduating within the programme, and 6 expected to graduate soon, and several PIs winning full professorships during, the second phase of the programme was highly successful. The SPP greatly supported collaborations, in particular international collaborations based on the NSF-DFG Collaborative Research Programme, and thereby substantially supported our PIs and young researchers to establish themselves in the growing international communities on the topic. Today, Autonomous Learning is not anymore a small niche topic with a small local research network, instead its research agenda became central to modern international AI research. Our PIs and the research agenda of autonomous learning now play a major role in the top conferences in the field.
