Date, Time and Location
Nov 11, 2026 5:30 PM - 8:30 PM The Conference Centre at U of T Giovanni Room (2nd Floor) 89 Chestnut St. Toronto, ON M5G 1R1
Meetup Agenda *5:30–6:30 PM*
• Networking, food, drinks, and lightning talks
Workshop Agenda This hands-on session uses DROID, a real-world robotics dataset loaded into FiftyOne as a native multimodal MCAP recording, and YOLO11n, fine-tuned live during the session.
*6:30–7:30 PM*
• Welcome + framing: from raw robot logs to a trained detector • Explore a real DROID robotics recording in FiftyOne's native multimodal MCAP viewer: camera, proprioception, and language on one synced timeline, no ROS install required • Curate: extract and browse frames from the recording, filter and deduplicate • Compute embeddings on the curated frames; explore via similarity search and embeddings visualization (via Nebius Serverless AI Jobs)
*7:30–8:00 PM*
• Auto-label: open-vocabulary detection to generate bounding boxes for the robot gripper and target objects • Train: fine-tune a YOLO11n detector on the auto-labeled frames (via Nebius Serverless AI Jobs) • Evaluate results and close the loop: view predictions back on the original MCAP timeline
*8:00–8:30 PM*
• What else Nebius offers: Token Factory walkthrough — chat/vision models, fine-tuning, credits
