ACVT has strong capabilities in the field of machine learning and is developing new techniques and applying them to a range of diverse problem spaces. For example, work is underway in the area of automatic feature extraction and classification from satellite and aerial imagery using a supervised machine learning system. Of key importance is the development of robust classifiers and an associated framework by which to apply them to geospatial data. ACVT is also working on entity extraction and resolution from unstructured data sources. This involves the development of unsupervised clustering techniques which are able to be applied on a massive scale.

Twelve papers at CVPR

The ACVT had 12 papers accepted to IEEE Computer Vision and Pattern Recognition 2015 (CVPR’15), one of the top 2 conferences in Computer Vision, which must be an Australian record. In terms of h5-index, CVPR ranks as the 7th venue in all Engineering and Computer Science after Nano and Nature journals. To put this in […]
