Welcome to “The First Multimodal AI Research Sprint: Beyond Vision & Language.” This unique gathering is where the convergence of diverse data types and cutting-edge machine learning models and algorithms is not just discussed but actively pursued. Our focus is on exploring the untapped potential in Multimodal AI, venturing beyond the established domains of vision and language. This event is a journey into uncharted territories, seeking to uncover new challenges and opportunities in data and problem-solving that have yet to be fully explored. While our primary aim is to delve into these new areas, we also value and welcome the rich insights and contributions from the fields of vision and language. The knowledge from these areas will provide a solid foundation for our exploration and innovation.
This event is more than a mere meeting of minds; it's the beginning of a long-term collaboration aimed at making a lasting impact in the field of Multimodal AI. It is your expertise, your insights, and your collaborative spirit that will drive us toward achieving significant academic and collaborative milestones.

Finding the Turing from within the British Library
Enter the British Library via the main entrance on Euston Road.
To access the first floor via stairs, take the main staircase to the left of the ticket and membership desk. Once at the large central bookcase display, turn right and head towards the sign for The Alan Turing Institute.
To access the first floor via lift, go right after entering the British Library, past the ticket and membership desk and fountain, and turn left at the bookshop. Continue until reaching Lift 6. Take the lift to the upper ground floor (UG). Once on the upper ground floor, exit the lift and take one of the three lifts diagonally across to the first floor. On the first floor, exit the lift, turn left, and follow the sign for The Alan Turing Institute.
The Alan Turing Institute entrance is illuminated with signage over the doorway, behind the display of the enigma machine. Please report to reception once you arrive at the entrance.
This event is brought to you by the Turing Interest Group on Meta-Learning for Multimodal Data (welcome to sign up) and the Multimodal AI Community (welcome to subscribe to our Google Group) supported by the Centre for Machine Intelligence at the University of Sheffield.
