Overview of the Meeting
We are bringing together a diverse range of researchers and engineers in Image and Video Quality across all career stages. This event is a great opportunity to learn and network – even if you are new to the field! If you still need convincing, lunch is included.
Presentations will be either published work, or ongoing research, in areas similar to below
- Classical / Deep Quality Models
- Perceptual Quality / Psychophysics
- Quality of Experience
- Immersion
- Medical Imaging
- Computer Graphics
- Compression
- Robotics
- Complexity Reduction
- Robustness
- New Datasets
- Literature Reviews
- Generative AI
- Computational Imaging
- Non-Visible Band Sensors: Infrared, Hyperspectral, SAR etc.
- Novel Imaging Systems: Event Cameras, Lightfield, Virtual Reality etc.
