CIVR 2010
The CIVR 2010 is the international conference on Image and Video Retrieval sponsored by the Xidian University and Microsoft Research Asia. The conference was holding at Tangcheng hotel in July 5-7, 2010, in Xi'an, China.
The conference brought together top researchers around the world to exchange research results and address open issues in all aspect of image and video retrieval.
The conference followed the CIVR tradition with single-track sessions. Two keynote speeches and one industrial presentations were hosted. The conference also included FIVE oral sessions, ONE poster sessions, and TWO special sessions. Practitioner activities are extremely important and we have selected chairs which have close connections with industry and have experience in organizing such activities. There is a best paper competition.
Practitioner's day
It has become a tradition that the final day of the ACM International Conference on Image and Video Retrieval (CIVR) is a practitioner’s day where the researchers are joined by practitioners and met peers from multimedia industry.
Multimedia search systems, engines and services gained strong interest and support, not only from academia and industry, but also from (inter)national authorities supporting these initiatives.
This year Chorus+ organized the practitioner day with the aim to bring together and provide participants from industry (content owners, producers, creators, archives, services, etc.), policy makers, academic and industrial researchers with an overview about these areas. The practitioner day presented several already realized commercial solutions.
Several presentations sketched or shared ideas about "Research to Business'' road-maps or needs to commercially successful apply research results. Considering that CIVR 2010 was organized in China another important goal is to reflect the relevant initiatives from Asia, Europe, and US. As such, the preliminary program included presentations from Yahoo!, Microsoft, Motorola, Hulu, as well as presentations from China, India, and Japan and from several European projects.
Here is the list of presentations and the possibility to download them:
