Sensing, Understanding and Synthesizing Humans

ICCV 2021, The 3rd Workshop on Sensing, Understanding and Synthesizing Humans
Virtual (Online via Zoom) [Youtube Recording] 05:00-09:00 PDT, Oct. 17th, 2021

Overview

Great progress has been achieved in human sensing, understanding and synthesis. We further identify three key issues of the future directions:

We should take a holistic view on the integral pipeline of human sensing/understanding/synthesis, and explore the frontier problems emerged from their intersections.
The lessons, practices and foresights from both academia and industry should be shared and discussed together.
These topics lay the foundation for human-centric AI and will play a greater role in the age of intelligent well-being.

We also hold two challenges along with the workshop this year:

We hope this workshop can foster the inter-disciplinary research in these fields that could profoundly advance our society.
