Upcoming events
Video processing has become a popular research direction in computer vision due to its various applications such as video summarization, action recognition, etc. Recently, deep learning-based methods have achieved impressive results in action recognition. However, these methods need to process a full video sequence to recognize the action, even though many of the frames in the video sequence are similar and non-essential to recognizing a particular action.
The day-long event will bring together advocates, enthusiasts, and other stakeholders in open science from across Concordia’s faculties and other regional institutions.
