Much of the worlds data is in the form of visual media. In order to utilize meaningful information from multimedia and deliver innovative products, such as Google Photos, Google builds machine-learning systems that are designed to enable computer perception of visual input, in addition to pursuing image and video analysis techniques focused on image/scene reconstruction and understanding.
This week, Boston hosts the 2015 Conference on Computer Vision and Pattern Recognition (CVPR 2015), the premier annual computer vision event comprising the main CVPR conference and several co-located workshops and short courses. As a leader in computer vision research, Google will have a strong presence at CVPR 2015, with many Googlers presenting publications in addition to hosting workshops and tutorials on topics covering image/video annotation and enhancement, 3D analysis and processing, development of semantic similarity measures for visual objects, synthesis of meaningful composites for visualization/browsing of large image/video collections and more.
Learn more about some of our research in the list below (Googlers highlighted in blue). If you are attending CVPR this year, we hope you’ll stop by our booth and chat with our researchers about the projects and opportunities at Google that go into solving interesting problems for hundreds of millions of people. Members of the Jump team will also have a prototype of the camera on display and will be showing videos produced using the Jump system on Google Cardboard.
