MLDublin Meets V-Sense @TCDTangent w/ Sponsor Huawei

Deep Learning for Visual Computing in V-SENSE

We are very grateful to @TCDTangent for hosting us and for Huawei Video Research Ireland for Sponsoring refreshments. Admission is on a first come basis so please do arrive on time as capacity is limited.

The venue is Tangent, which is in the new TCD business school Pearse Street... google maps gets this wrong so use the PIN below to be sure.

Artificial Intelligence (AI) has made it from science fiction into everyday life. Machine Learning (ML) enabled breakthroughs due to availability of massive data and computational resources. Deep Learning (DL) in particular disrupted all areas of visual computing (VC), including computer vision/graphics and image/video processing.

The V-SENSE team of Trinity College Dublin adopted this challenge and opportunity, and made a number of significant contributions to the field of DL for VC over the last 2 years, which were published
at different venues.

Prof Smolic will give an introduction and highlight some of those, including deep normal estimation, DeepTMO for HDR tone mapping, SalNet360 for 360 image saliency estimation, and others. He will also present DublinCity, our database of semantic labels for a LiDAR point cloud in city scale.

Then additional talks will be given by PhD students as follows:

Sebastian Lutz
Generative Adversarial Networks for Natural Image Matting

Koustav Ghosal
Aesthetic Image Analysis Using Deep Learning

Tejo Chalasani
Convolutional and Recurrent Neural Networks for Ego Centric Hand Gesture Recognition

Registration from 6pm.
Talks starting from 6:45pm.
Networking from 8pm.
