This grant partially supports the participation of students from US institutions in the Doctoral Consortium at the IEEE Conference on Computer Vision and Pattern Recognition (CVPR) 2018 in Salt Lake City, UT. CVPR is the premier annual conference in computer vision with over 5000 senior, junior and student participants from all the world. The broader impacts of this project include supporting the career development of some of the brightest junior researchers in computer vision, contributing to the research community in general by drawing attention to an important aspect of graduate student development, potentially increasing the number of active researchers and educators in STEM, and ensuring that the computer vision community, through its recent graduates, makes fast advances in solving problems that will benefit society as a whole. The Doctoral Consortium aims to have representation from a diverse group of participants in terms of gender, ethnic background, academic institution, and geographic location. NSF support covers some of the costs for 19 selected US-based graduate students to attend the Doctoral Consortium and CVPR conference. The Doctoral Consortium is to highlight the work of senior PhD students who are within six months of receiving their degrees (including recent graduates), and to give these students an opportunity to discuss their research and career options with faculty and researchers who have relevant expertise and experience. The opportunity to receive advice on their research work and career plans from experts from different institutions, and with potentially different perspectives, is often not available internally at one's own institution. Participants and recipients of travel support are selected by the 2018 CVPR Doctoral Consortium co-chairs. Travel awards partially cover any admissible conference-related costs such as registration, airfare, lodging, and board. This year's Doctoral Consortium features a poster session, one-on-one mentoring, and panel discussion. The last of these components was introduced in last two year's event and was well received.This award reflects NSF's statutory mission and has been deemed worthy of support through evaluation using the Foundation's intellectual merit and broader impacts review criteria.

该补助金部分支持来自美国机构的学生参加2018年在犹他湖城举行的IEEE计算机视觉和模式识别会议（CVPR）的博士生联盟。CVPR是计算机视觉领域首屈一指的年度会议，有来自世界各地的5000多名高年级、初中生和学生参加。该项目的更广泛的影响包括支持计算机视觉领域一些最聪明的初级研究人员的职业发展，通过提请注意研究生发展的一个重要方面，为研究界做出贡献，可能增加活跃的研究人员和教育工作者的数量在STEM，并确保计算机视觉社区，通过其最近的毕业生，在解决有利于整个社会的问题方面取得了快速进展。博士生联盟的目标是从不同群体的参与者在性别，种族背景，学术机构和地理位置方面的代表。NSF的支持涵盖了19名选定的美国研究生参加博士联盟和CVPR会议的部分费用。博士联盟是突出谁是在六个月内获得学位（包括应届毕业生）的高级博士生的工作，并给这些学生一个机会，讨论他们的研究和职业选择与教师和研究人员谁拥有相关的专业知识和经验。在自己的机构内部，往往没有机会听取来自不同机构、观点可能不同的专家对自己的研究工作和职业规划的意见。旅行支持的参与者和接受者由2018年CVPR博士联盟联合主席选择。旅费补助金部分用于支付与会议有关的可受理费用，如登记、机票、食宿等。今年的博士联盟设有海报会议，一对一的指导，和小组讨论。最后一个奖项是在过去两年的活动中推出的，并受到好评。该奖项反映了NSF的法定使命，并通过使用基金会的知识价值和更广泛的影响审查标准进行评估，被认为值得支持。
