Early registration: CVML Short Course on Deep Learning and Computer Vision, 22-23th August 2022

June 23rd, 2022 Daniela Lopez de Luise

Dear Machine Learning, Computer Vision and Autonomous Systems engineers, scientists and enthusiasts,

 

you are welcomed to register in the CVML Short e-course on Deep Learning and Computer Vision,  22–23th August 2022:

http://icarus.csd.auth.gr/cvml-short-course-on-deep-learning-and-computer-vision-2022/

 

Its focus will be on applications in autonomous systems (cars, drones, marine vessels).

 

It will take place as a two-day e-course (due to COVID-19 circumstances), hosted by the Aristotle University of Thessaloniki (AUTH), Thessaloniki, Greece.

It will contain a series of live lectures delivered through a tele-education platform (Zoom). They will be complemented with on-line video recorded lectures and lecture pdfs,

to facilitate international participants having time difference issues and to enable you to study at own pace. 

 

You can also self-assess your knowledge, by filling appropriate questionnaires (one per lecture). You will be provided programming to improve your programming skills.

You will also have accesses to tutorial exercises to better your theoretical understanding of selected CVML topics.

This 6th edition of this course is part of the very successful CVML short course series that took place in the last four years.

Course description ‘Deep Learning and Computer Vision’

The short e-course consists of 14 1-hour live lectures organized in two Parts (1 Part per day):

Part A lectures (7 hours) provide a solid background on the foundational Computer Vision  topics and an in-depth presentation to Autonomous Systems vision and the relevant architectures (Camera geometry, Stereo and Multiview imaging, Introduction to multiple drone systems,  Simultaneous Localization and Mapping, Drone mission planning and control, Introduction to autonomous marine vehicles).

Part B lectures (7 hours) provide an in-depth  presentation of various Deep Learning topics (Multilayer Perceptron, Backpropagation, Deep Neural Networks, Convolutional NNs, Deep Object Detection, 2D Visual Object Tracking, Neural Slam) encountered in autonomous systems perception, ranging from vehicle localization and mapping, to target detection and tracking.

 

Parts A, B also contain application-oriented lectures on autonomous systems embedded CPU/GPU computing and related SW tools that can be used in a wide range of applications, e.g., for land/marine surveillance, search&rescue missions, infrastructure/building inspection and modeling, cinematography.
