Dear reader, Happy New Year! On behalf of RSIP Vision , we wish all our readers and the community a prosperous and successful 2022 . We are kicking off the year with a bumper January issue of Computer Vision News including many features you will love! The first is a formidable new image inpainting method developed by a Samsung-led team. It is the Research of the Month by our writer Ioannis Valasakis, and we dare to call it formidable because of its results. Turn the page for the chance to try it out yourself. We have reviewed the well-deserved winner of the Best Paper award at the recent British Machine Vision Conference (BMVC) . DISCO is an innovative newapproach to accurate scale-equivariant convolutional neural networks (SE-CNNs). The first author is an old friend of the magazine, and you might not be surprised to discover who he is. Find out more on page 10. Our writer Marica Muffoletto ’s monthly column is dedicated to one reader's enticing request. If we hear from more readers in the future, we are considering opening a new section called YOU ASKED FOR IT! This month, Marica presents a large panorama of how to draw neural networks, with code! Do not hesitate to enrich your skillset by following her guidance. Learn more on page 14. We are also honored to host again, after more than three years, one of the pillars of the MICCAI community: Professor Daniel Rueckert . He speaks to us about his work at the intersection of computer science and medicine. You don’t want to miss his exclusive interview on page 44 and a surprise on page 51. Enjoy reading this exciting January issue of Computer Vision News - probably one of the richest ever - and take us along for your next MedTech project!
