Summer School on Deep Learning and Computer Vision
Deep Learning, Computer Vision and Autonomous Systems engineers, scientists, and enthusiasts,
you are welcomed to register to the
2023 Summer School on Deep Learning and Computer Vision:
https://icarus.csd.auth.gr/aiia-cvml-summer-school-on-deep-learning-and-computer-vision-2023/
It will take place on the 28th August - 1st September 2023 and will be
hosted by the Artificial Intelligence and Information Analysis (AIIA)
Lab, Aristotle University of Thessaloniki (AUTH), Thessaloniki,
Greece.
The summer school consists of two short courses:
a) Short Course on Deep Learning and Computer Vision 2023,
28th - 29th August 2023:
https://icarus.csd.auth.gr/cvml-short-course-deep-learning-and-computer-vision-2023/
with various Computer Vision and Deep Learning applications, e.g., for
big visual data analysis, autonomous vehicles (drones, cars and marine
vessels), digital media analysis, intelligent human-machine
interaction, anthropocentric (human-centered) computing, industrial
surveillance, smart cities/buildings and assisted living, natural
disaster management and
b) Programming short course and workshop on Deep Learning and Computer
Vision 2023, 30th August – 1st September 2023:
https://icarus.csd.auth.gr/cvml-programming-short-course-and-workshop-on-deep-learning-and-computer-vision-2023/
with applications in autonomous systems vision/perception and visual
data/social media analysis for natural disaster management.
You can follow the above-mentioned links to register to either one or
both courses.
For questions, please contact: Ioanna Koroni
The first course consists of 16 lectures providing an in-depth
presentation of many computer vision and deep learning problems
algorithms, as applied e.g., in big visual data analysis, autonomous
vehicle vision, digital media analysis and human centered computing.
The second programming short course and workshop offers a mix of
lectures and programming workshops (hands-on lab exercises). It aims
at developing registrants’ programming skills for Deep Learning and
Computer Vision, with focus on digital/social media analysis for
Autonomous Systems and also on Natural Disaster Management.
For both courses, the acquired skills can be used in a multitude of
other applications that involve vision and/or natural language
processing tasks.
Both short courses are organized by Prof. I. Pitas, IEEE and EURASIP
fellow, He is chair of the International AI Doctoral Academy (AIDA),
AUTH prime investigation for H2020 projects AerialCore and AI4Media,
and Director of the Artificial Intelligence and Information analysis
Lab (AIIA Lab), Aristotle University of Thessaloniki, Greece. He was
Chair of the IEEE SPS Autonomous Systems Initiative and Coordinator of
the European Horizon2020 R&D project Multidrone. He is ranked 319th in
Computer Science and Electronics Scientists internationally by
research.com (2022).
Aristotle University of Thessaloniki is the biggest University in
Greece and in SE Europe. It is highly ranked
internationally. Thessaloniki is a very pleasant and popular summer
destination in Greece.
