Unsupervised Learning in Space and Time addresses one of the most important unsolved problems in artificial intelligence: the task of learning, in an unsupervised manner, from massive quantities of spatiotemporal visual data that are available at low cost. The book covers important scientific discoveries and findings, with a focus on the latest advances in the field.
Presenting a coherent structure, the book logically connects novel mathematical formulations and efficient computational solutions for a range of unsupervised learning tasks, including visual feature matching, learning and classification, object discovery, and semantic segmentation in video. The final part of the book proposes a general strategy for visual learning over several generations of student-teacher neural networks, along with a unique view on the future of unsupervised learning in real-world contexts.
Offering a fresh approach to this difficult problem, several efficient, state-of-the-art unsupervised learning algorithms are reviewed in detail, complete with an analysis of their performance on various tasks, datasets, and experimental setups. By highlighting the interconnections between these methods, many seemingly diverse problems are elegantly brought together in a unified way.
Serving as an invaluable guide to the computational tools and algorithms required to tackle the exciting challenges in the field, this book is a must-read for graduate students seeking a greater understanding of unsupervised learning, as well as researchers in computer vision, machine learning, robotics, and related disciplines.

My name is blue is the author's debut volume in prose and represents a twinning between science and art, between the work of scientific research that may seem hermetic and the human existence, free and open. Marius Leordeanu takes the reader along a complex and fascinating path, which crosses several fields of knowledge, from computer science, artificial intelligence and quantum physics, to philosophy, religion and art. All these dimensions intertwine throughout the reading and come together in a surprising ending when the secret of the book is revealed.

In Romanian:
Ma numesc albastru este volumul de debut in proza al autorului si reprezinta o ingemanare intre stiinta si arta, intre munca de cercetare stiintifica care poate parea ermetica si cea umana, libera si deschisa. Marius Leordeanu poarta cititorul de-a lungul unui drum complex si fascinant, care strabate mai multe domenii ale cunoasterii, de la informatica, inteligenta artificiala si fizica cuantica, pana la filosofie, religie si arta. Toate aceste dimensiuni se intrepatrund de-a lungul lecturii si se reunesc intr-un final surprinzator cand secretul cartii se dezvaluie.

Pasarea maiastra
Da-mi mana, pasare maiastra,
ca sa ne leganam pe nori
si infinitul sa ne odhineasca
albastru langa albastru,
pe orizont sa ne asezam un dor.
Din el sa iasa un nou senin,
un singur zbor din doua vieti,
iar noi pe cer sa devenim
un curcubeu pornind din amintiri
spre zari cu neincepute dimineti.
din "Povestea unui cuvant" (2013) de Marius Leordeanu
The story of a word is the volume of debut poems by Marius Leordeanu, when he was a 34-year-old doctor and researcher in robotics and artificial intelligence of international stature. With an exceptional graphic presentation, offered by artists Cristina Lazar and Mircea Nechita, the book offers readers a unique reading experience, in which language and the visual combine in a lively and harmonious way, bringing a new breath to the world of Romanian books. Combining the experience of more than twelve years of scientific research started in the United States, with his artistic vocation towards writing and music, Marius Leordeanu invites you to an intimate world, warm, and at the same time open to light and universality. Describing in a sincere, clear and musical way his inner feelings and images, the author extends his writing towards love, to find, through it, the beauty, the good, the hope and the world above, revealed, through faith, in the mystery of the present moment. In a deep search for the identity of the human spirit, the author calls us to find life and the eternal resumption in the natural and at the same time miraculous connection between us and the world we are part of.

In Romanian:
Povestea unui cuvant este volumul de poezii de debut al lui Marius Leordeanu, un tanar de 34 de ani, doctor si cercetator in robotica si inteligenta artificiala de talie internationala. Avand o prezentare grafica de exceptie, oferita de artistii Cristina Lazar si Mircea Nechita, cartea ofera cititorilor o experienta de lectura unica, in care limba si vizualul se imbina intr-un mod viu si armonios, aducand un suflu nou in lumea cartii romanesti. Combinand experienta de mai bine de doisprezece ani de cercetare stiintifica inceputa pe taramul Statelor Unite, cu vocatia sa artistica inspre scris si muzica, Marius Leordeanu va invita intr-o lume intima, calda, si totodata deschisa spre lumina si universalitate. Descriind intr-un mod sincer, limpede si muzical trairile si imaginile sale interioare, autorul intinde mana spre iubire, pentru a gasi, prin ea, frumosul, binele, speranta si lumea de deasupra, revelate, prin credinta, in misterul clipei prezente. Intr-o cautare adanca a identitatii spiritului uman, autorul ne cheama sa regasim viata si eternul reinceput in legatura fireasca si in acelasi timp miraculoasa, dintre noi si lumea din care facem parte.
