The British Machine Vision Association runs an annual Computer Vision Summer School aimed at PhD students, though it will also be beneficial to other researchers at an early stage in their careers as well as professionals working in industry. Despite the title, students from non-UK universities are welcome to attend, as are students and professionals from UK universities and industry. Places are limited, so we encourage early registration.
The 2025 Summer School will take place at the University of Aberdeen, Aberdeen, Scotland, UK, between 7th - 11th July 2025. It will consist of an intensive week of lectures and lab sessions covering a wide range of topics in Computer Vision. Lecturers are researchers in the field from some of the most active research groups in the UK and abroad.
In addition to the academic content, the Summer School provides a networking opportunity for students to interact with their peers, and to make contacts among those who will be the active researchers of their own generation.
The school covers the following topics:
- 4D Computer Vision in the wild
- Classical Computer Vision
- Computer Vision in Robotics and SLAM
- Contrastive Language-Image Pretraining (CLIP) for Video Analytics
- Efficient Models for Computer Vision
- Egocentric Vision - Making Sense of the First-Person Perspective
- Graph and Geometric Computer Vision
- Human Vs Machine Vision
- Hyperbolic and Hyperspherical Learning
- Medical Imaging
- Multimodal Behaviour Understanding and Generation for Human-Robot Interaction
- Python (Pytorch) for Computer Vision
- Self-Supervised Learning
- Structured Generative models for Computer Vision
- Uncertainty and Evaluation in Vision
- Video Understanding
