Workshop 5: Deliverables

The aim of the workshop is to have a global overview of all the work conducted in WP 4 so far, agree on the structure of the two deliverables and identify the future activities.


Invited Talk: Bastian Leibe

Title: Towards Sensing Human Actions at a Pixel Precision Level

Abstract: Computer Vision has made immense progress over the past decade, driven in large parts by major advances in (and a better understanding of) deep learning. In this talk, I will illustrate this progress by presenting examples of state-of-the-art approaches from our research in several areas of visual scene understanding, including object segmentation, tracking, human body pose estimation, and 3D semantic scene analysis. For each of those areas, I will show how deep learning approaches are currently being applied to solve visual scene understanding tasks. As the presented results will show, results of state-of-the-art vision methods are getting steadily closer to giving pixel accurate interpretations of visual scenes. This increased level of precision in delineating object boundaries has important implications on both the level of detail at which vision approaches are able to analyze a scene and on the trust one can potentially place in the results of this analysis. This is in particular relevant when considering combinations of sensing with reasoning about human actions, which we can explore together in a hopefully lively follow-up discussion.
