  An impressive finish on a computer vision conference challenge has paved the way for a computer science student’s first trip overseas. Tina Tran, an accelerated bachelors to master’s student and undergraduate researcher at the Center for Research in Computer Vision (CRCV), earned a trip to Milan to present her research courtesy of CRCV founder…

The multi-institutional work is funded by a nearly $1 million grant from the U.S. National Science Foundation. Researchers from the University of Central Florida, University of Texas at Dallas and Vanderbilt University have received a three-year, $927,203 grant for advancing future quantum education by using virtual reality (VR) and machine learning to identify and address…

The IEEE / CVF Computer Vision and Pattern Recognition Conference (CVPR) is the premier annual computer vision event comprising the main conference and several co-located workshops and short courses.

ICCV is the premier international computer vision event comprising the main conference and several co-located workshops and tutorials. In 2021, UCF’s Center for Research in Computer Vision (CRCV) had 6 papers accepted into the ICCV conference.

Research by PhD student Karla Badillo-Urquiola and CS assistant professor Pamela Wisniewski describes the use of participatory design methods to redesign TikTok (or Musical.ly) to help keep kids safe online.
