Job Number: P24F12

This position focuses on advancing research at the intersection of visual human behavior understanding, natural language, and human-centered intelligence. The goal is to design and develop algorithms that not only achieve state-of-the-art performance in vision-language intelligence but also capture social, emotional, and behavioral dimensions of human experience. A central emphasis is on recognizing and explaining human skills, learning processes, and proficiency, enabling AI systems that are attuned to identity, diversity, and interaction while supporting human development and collaboration.

San Jose, CA

Key Responsibilities

• Conduct research at the intersection of visual human behavior understanding, language, and human-centered AI.
• Develop models and algorithms that analyze and interpret human behavior, skills, and proficiency, including methods to recognize, represent, and explain task performance and learning.
• Design architectures that integrate visual and language modalities for behavior understanding, skill learning, knowledge transfer, and evaluation of human proficiency.
• Participate in multimodal data collection and annotation, with attention to behavioral, affective, and skill-related signals.
• Explore broad applications of vision-language intelligence in domains such as training, education, accessibility, and human-AI collaboration.
• Contribute to patents, academic publications, and prototypes that demonstrate both scientific impact and human-centered value.
