Computer Vision News - September 2019

Doris Antensteiner 27 vision. So I was first working in industry before I joined a research center and started my PhD. What did you like there? It was great to work in a team, to work on actual computer vision applications, to see it running every day in the real world, and see your algorithms working out there. Tell us more about the research institute where you work. The Austrian Institute of Technology is the biggest research institute in Austria. It covers a lot of different topics of research areas. There are 1,300 employees. Which conferences is your favorite? I really like CVPR. What do you like at CVPR? I like that a lot of people from the community come together, and you have a lot of opportunities to meet people from your research field and also from your research niche. Many people attend, but only a few from the little niche you are working in. It is interesting to exchange with them. CVPR offers a lot of opportunities, with smaller sessions to engage with people and also poster sessions where it’s quite easy to talk to people. I also like when there are keynote speakers. I like the keynote speeches. Is there anything you would like to change there so we can give a suggestion for next year? I really like it as it is!
