Symposium Computer Vision
Sat, 2 Feb 2019
written by Nick Stracke
Our friends from Computer Science, Thalia, are organizing their own symposium on the 8th of March 2019 and we are also invited. This year's topic is Computer Vision and it will take place at the LUX. For more information, continue reading or visit their webite here!
Once again, a spectacular Thalia symposium is on the program. Resnap will open the program with a lecture on how they automatically convert a photo collection into a photo book by the use of computer vision. Then the program will split into two tracks, where you can choose from two different lectures. With your application you can give your preference for where you prefer to go. The closing lecture will be given by Cees Snoek in which he will tell about his latest research in the field of computer vision on videos. We will spend this day in the LUX where we will also be provided with a cup of coffee / tea, lunch and a drink at the end of the day.
The program will focus on all the uses and applications for computer vision and image recognition. We will have lectures about the inner workings of computer vision and interesting use cases of the technology. It will also be possible to meet interesting companies, either during the lunch or through some speed dates. Among others Resnap, Capgemini, Nedap and Infosupport will be present here. You can sign up for the speed dates if you just like to talk to companies, if you are looking for a thesis / internship place or when you are orienting for a job. In short, everyone can sign up for these speed dates when they like so.
Currently there are 80 spots, but this amount may increase, so be sure to get a spot on the waiting list if you want to come!
