Real World
Research on "real-world" applications focuses on bridging the gap between simulated and real-world environments, particularly for complex tasks like robotics, autonomous driving, and natural language processing. Current efforts utilize various model architectures, including large language models (LLMs), diffusion models, reinforcement learning (RL), and graph neural networks, to improve robustness, generalization, and efficiency in diverse real-world scenarios. This research is crucial for advancing AI capabilities beyond controlled settings and enabling practical applications in areas such as healthcare, manufacturing, and transportation, while also addressing challenges like data scarcity, safety, and bias.
