This June, the 2020 Conference on Computer Vision and Pattern Recognition (CVPR) went fully virtual, with members of the research community gathering online to discuss key topics and research in the field. Amazon scientists presented 10 papers and participated in a number of co-located workshops and tutorials throughout the conference.
During the event, Gerard Medioni, CVPR general chair and Amazon distinguished scientist, hosted a pre-recorded discussion with two luminaries in the field, Pietro Perona, Amazon Fellow, and Larry Davis, senior principal scientist.
Medioni, Perona, and Davis discussed the history and notable milestones of computer vision science, some of the research they presented during CVPR 2020, and where they see this field of research heading in the future.
