Understanding Humans in Images and Videos

点击翻译按钮获取中文摘要

A grand challenge of computer vision is "understanding people" from visual data. Given an image (or video), we would like to build computer systems that can understand its content and provide rich descriptions about people in it, e.g. localizing people, recognizing their actions, identifying their attributes (e.g. gender, occupation, etc), inferring their relations with other people, etc. A reliable solution to this challenge will enable many applications, e.g. surveillance, entertainment, web search, human computer interaction, etc. The objective of the proposed research is to develop a body of knowledge that facilitates understanding people in visual data and to showcase the technologies with concrete applications.
