SUMMARY:{Seminar} @ CDS: #102 : 05th December: "Advancing Visual Intelligen
 ce: Innovations Across Images\, Videos\, and Point Clouds"
DESCRIPTION:We welcome you to CDS-KIAC talk on 05 December 2023 (Tuesday).
  The details are as below:\n\n\n\nSpeaker: Dr. Mrigank Rochan\n\nTitle: 
 Advancing Visual Intelligence: Innovations Across Images\, Videos\, and Po
 int Clouds\n\nDate and time: 05 December 2023\; 4 PM\n\nVenue: CDS #102\
 , Department of Computational and Data Sciences.\n\n\n\nAbstract:\n\nAs th
 e demand for advanced computer vision applications continues to grow\, the
 re is a pressing need to improve the understanding and interpretation of v
 isual data. In this talk\, I will present our efforts to push the boundari
 es of visual intelligence across multiple modalities\, including images\, 
 videos\, and point clouds\, enabling more accurate and efficient analysis 
 of diverse visual content. Firstly\, I will introduce our method that can 
 automatically localize the object in an image associated with a user-gener
 ated textual tag. Secondly\, I will describe our work towards the automati
 c creation of a short visual summary or highlight of a long input video\, 
 allowing users to easily preview\, search\, and edit ever-growing video da
 ta. Thirdly\, I will discuss our research on robust visual perception syst
 ems in autonomous driving\, focusing specifically on LiDAR point cloud sem
 antic segmentation. Finally\, I will conclude with some interesting future
  directions.\n\nBio of Speaker: \n\nMrigank Rochan is an Assistant Profes
 sor in the Department of Computer Science at the University of Saskatchewa
 n\, Canada. He earned his PhD in Computer Science from the University of M
 anitoba in 2020. His research interests lie in computer vision and machine
  learning. He has published papers in top-tier computer vision and robotic
 s conferences and journals\, including CVPR\, ICCV\, ECCV\, ICRA\, and TPA
 MI. He received the 2020 Canadian Image Processing and Pattern Recognition
  Society (CIPPRS) John Barron Doctoral Dissertation Award for his doctoral
  dissertation on deep learning models for video abstraction\, a prestigiou
 s national award given annually to the top PhD thesis defended in computer
 /robot vision at a Canadian university.\n\n\n\nALL ARE WELCOME
