Computer vision

Computer vision is the part of AI concerned with the automated interpretation of digital imagery, with very strong links with machine learning, natural image understanding and robotics, and a very wide array of applications in engineering, industry and the sciences.

Computer vision research within PRAIRIE spans many parts from the field, from theoretical work on very general geometric models of the imaging process to self-supervised approaches to visual recognition and the fusion of textual and visual models for robot navigation. Applications pursued by PRAIRIE chairs range from medical imaging and personal and scientific photography to astronomy and microscopy, notably with collaborations with colleagues from the natural language processing and biomedical imaging groups at PRAIRIE, the MIAI 3IA Institute, and the Paris and Lyon observatories.
