Dear reader,
CVPR2107, the Computer Vision and Pattern
Recognition conference, has once again fulfilled the
expectations of our community: an exceptional
technical program combined with a dream location in
Hawaii and an outstanding organization produced the
most important meeting of the year. A record-
breaking 5,000 participants enjoyed a perfect week
and, just like last year in Las Vegas, Computer Vision
News was a key actor in the success of the event: our
CVPR Daily, the magazine offered by RSIP Vision to
the algorithm community during CVPR, was a success
renewed every day among all attendees. If you missed
it, you will find in this August issue of Computer Vision
News a Best of CVPR section with no less than 38
pages, all relating some of the key moments that we
lived in Honolulu. We are very proud of this renewed
partnership with CVPR, and have already agreed to
repeat its success at CVPR2018 in Salt Lake City, Utah.
We wish to warmly thank Nicole Finn and CtoCevents
for their precious help and support.
The success of CVPR Daily does not conceal from our
eyes the exceptional quality of the technical program
and the impressive talent of all the scientists who
presented it. A quick look at the program of the
conference would convince anybody to join us next
year for an even more successful CVPR conference.
This Computer Vision News issue of August offers
many other exclusive reads, in particular our own
reviews of two great research papers: GMS (Grid-
based Motion Statistics) and TransFlow (sponsored
by Panasonic).
Please keep sharing this magazine and enjoy the
reading!
