Early registration: Invitation for the 2022 Summer e-School on Deep Learning and Computer Vision, 22-26th August 2022, Aristotle University of Thessaloniki, Thessaloniki, Greece

08/06/2022

Dear Deep Learning, Computer Vision and Autonomous Systems engineers, scientists, and enthusiasts,

you are welcomed to register to the 2022 Summer e-School on Deep Learning and Computer Vision:

https://icarus.csd.auth.gr/aiia-summer-school-2022

It will take place on 22-26/08/2022 and will be hosted by the Artificial Intelligence and Information Analysis (AIIA) Lab, Aristotle University of Thessaloniki (AUTH), Thessaloniki, Greece.

The summer e-school consists of two short e-courses:

a) ‘Short Course on Deep Learning and Computer Vision 2022’, 22-23rd August 2022, having focus on Computer Vision and Deep Learning  for autonomous drones, cars and marine vessels:

You can follow the above-mentioned links for registration on either or both e-courses.

For questions, please contact: Ioanna Koroni <koroniioannaatcsd [dot] auth [dot] gr>

The first e-course contains 14 live lectures providing an in-depth presentation of computer vision and deep learning problems algorithms with applications on autonomous drones, cars and marine vessels (to be recorded).

The second programming short e-course and workshop offers a mix of live lectures and programming workshops (hands-on lab exercises).

It aims at developing registrants’ programming skills for Deep Learning and Computer Vision, with focus on drone imaging/cinematography and digital media applications.

Both short e-courses are organized by Prof. I. Pitas, IEEE and EURASIP fellow, He is chair of the International AI Doctoral Academy (AIDA), AUTH prime investigation for H2020 projects AerialCore and AI4Media,

and Director of the Artificial Intelligence and Information analysis Lab (AIIA Lab), Aristotle University of Thessaloniki, Greece. He was Chair of the IEEE SPS Autonomous Systems Initiative and

Coordinator of the European Horizon2020 R&D project Multidrone. He is ranked 319 top Computer Science and Electronics Scientist internationally by research.com (202).

Aristotle University of Thessaloniki is the biggest University in Greece and in SE Europe. It is highly ranked internationally.
