Conference on Computer Vision and Pattern Recognition – 2019

First held in Washington DC in 1983, today CVPR is regarded as the world’s premier computer vision conference. In 2018, CVPR received 3300 main conference paper submissions and accepted 979. In 2019, its submissions spiked to 5165, a 56% increase over 2018. The submission and acceptance totals both set records as the conference had never before accepted more than 1000 papers. The list of all 1300 research papers accepted for CVPR 2019 is available here: http://openaccess.thecvf.com/CVPR2019.py. Given you spend 1 hour to read 1 article and the rate of 8 articles per day, it will take you about 6 months to read all of them. You’d better start right now 🙃
CVPR 2019 in numbers:

  • over 6k attendees
  • 25 tutorials
  • 88 workshops
  • 181 exhibitors including Adobe Systems Inc., Amazon, Apple, Boston Dynamics, Facebook, Google, Hitachi, IBM Research, Intel, Microsoft, Qualcomm, Samsung Electronics, Tesla, Uber. And this is just to name a few!
  • countless job offers [machine learning researchers and software engineers, check this out: http://cvpr2019.thecvf.com/jobs].

It’s going to be nothing but incredible! And we are extremely happy to attend this conference. Stay tuned for our CTO’s live reports from California on our social media!

Eastern European Computer Vision Conference – 2019

In July 2019, we are traditionally heading to Eastern European Conference on Computer Vision, full of deep practical talks, newly delivered fireside chats with investors and entrepreneurs in CV/ML. This conference has always been a unique opportunity for computer vision researchers and developers to meet with peers, share their knowledge, learn about new trends, find like-minded people and discuss the prospects of the CV/ML/AI market. This is the forth edition of the EECVC, and third one for us.

Signal Processing Symposium – 2019

In a Mortal Kombat fight, where classical computer vision is competing with deep learning in solving visual perception tasks, who would finish the opponent with fatality move? The answer is not that straightforward – both approaches have their pros and cons. Our CEO Ievgen Gorovyi and CTO Pavlo Vy are going to answer this question at the workshop during the Signal Processing Symposium in Poland. Spoiler: classical #CV and #DL are rather friends than competitors 😉
The It-Jim’s team is also presenting three papers at the SPS2019:

AI Ukraine – 2019

AI Ukraine is the biggest Ukrainian conference on practical usage of Data Science, Machine Learning, Big Data and Artificial Intelligence. It is a professional forum for meeting peers, sharing experiences and discussing the current issues in the fields. Conference brings together technical specialists, researchers, managers, entrepreneurs and everyone who is interested in learning new AI and Big Data trends and research, real use cases and technical knowledge.

IT Weekend Kharkiv: AI&ML

It-Jim is happy to be a golden partner of the IT Weekend Kharkiv: AI&ML – come visit our booth and chat with us! Also, join the talk of Pavlo Vyplavin, our CTO, at 16:15 in the grey hall to learn about computer vision application for biometrics.
Biometrics has the capability to identify or verify an individual correctly by using a wide range of physiological characteristics possessed by the user. Today, it’s impossible to imagine cutting-edge biometrics-based identification systems without computer vision involvement. In his talk, Pavlo will overview both most popular biometric traits that can be used for recognition with computer vision (face, fingerprint, iris, vascular pattern, gait, etc.) and unusual ones like ear, tongue, nose and cover related algorithms used for the recognition. He will also describe two real examples of the application of computer vision methods for biometric identification: a custom solution for human vein recognition with state-of-the art accuracy based on both image processing and computer vision and the identification pipeline developed for a crocodile skin recognition.
