Visual Turing Test millions of dollars into computer vision research, and are trying to build systems that closely resemble the human visual system. Recently Facebook announced its new platform M, which looks at an image and provides a description of it to help the visually impaired. Such systems might be able to perform well on the VTT. Visual Turing Test Computer vision research is driven by standard evaluation practices. The current systems are tested by their accuracy for tasks like object detection, segmentation and localization. Methods like the convolutional neural networks seem to be doing pretty well in these tasks, but the current
Turing test The first was the Turing Colloquium, which was held at the University of Sussex in April, and brought together academics and researchers from a wide variety of disciplines to discuss the Turing test in terms of its past, present, and future; the second was the formation of the annual Loebner Prize competition. Blay Whitby lists four major turning points in the history of the Turing test – the publication of "Computing Machinery and Intelligence" in 1950, the announcement of Joseph Weizenbaum's ELIZA in 1966, Kenneth Colby's creation of PARRY, which was first described in 1972, and the Turing Colloquium in
