Using Large Language Transformer Models for Research in R – Livestream Seminar

July 23rd, 2024 Daniela Lopez de Luise
Hello everyone,
Code Horizons presents Using Large Language Transformer Models for Research in R, a 3-day seminar taught by Hudson Golino and Alexander Christensen on August 6-8.
Learn to use natural language processing (NLP) techniques and large language transformer models (LLMs) for research applications using R. This course is an ideal first introduction for anyone interested in applying NLP techniques to analyze and extract insights from unstructured text data in their own research.
This livestream seminar will be held via Zoom, but you can also join asynchronously by viewing the recorded videos of each session.
Please share this information with anyone who may be interested. Email ashley@statisticalhorizons.com with any questions.

Thanks,
Ashley

3rd ed. CV4Metaverse – submission deadline extended to July 31!!

July 23rd, 2024 Daniela Lopez de Luise
 Call for Papers
3rd edition of Computer Vision For Metaverse (CV4Metaverse)
held at ECCV 2024 (29 September 2024, Milan, Italy)
In the growing fields of Augmented Reality (AR), Virtual Reality (VR), and the Metaverse, Computer Vision (CV) becomes a fundamental tool to support applications and better understand people, objects, and the world, seamlessly merging digital and physical worlds. Meanwhile, Natural Language Processing is crucial for understanding human language. Nowadays, Large Language Models (LLMs) enable human-like conversations, enhancing human-machine interactions, and Large Language-Vision Models (LLVMs) improve visual data comprehension. CV, in conjunction with LLMs and LLVMs, can significantly boost the development of AR, VR, and Metaverse applications, enabling hands-free navigation, voice commands, and immersive avatar communication.
Therefore, the third edition of the CV4Metaverse workshop aims at integrating both pure computer vision and language-based techniques to contribute to the advancement of the field. The areas of interest touch upon, but are not confined to, the following subjects:
  • Scene Understanding:
    • Methods, algorithms, and systems for scene understanding to enable environmental interaction use cases in 3D scenes.
    • Modeling the virtual/augmented environment (depth estimation, 3D reconstruction, object detection and tracking, multimedia understanding, etc).
  • Metaverse Applications:
    • Different kinds of applications using Machine Learning techniques to help the Metaverse users.
    • New datasets in the metaverse area, which can foster the research areas related to it.
  • Cross-Modal Applications:
    • Using other types of data like textual data in facilitating or creating new applications in 3D scenes or metaverse areas.
Important dates:
Workshop paper submission deadline
July 31, 2024
Extended abstract submission deadline
July 31, 2024
Technical reports submission deadline
July 30, 2024
Notification to authors
