Revisiting Old Ideas With Modern Hardware
Many computer vision ideas have been revisited again and again and again, including current modern computer vision based on neural computation. This round has led to incredible developments in computational hardware. Might such powerful computation breathe life into older neglected ideas?

Diversity and Inclusion Social
Diversity and inclusion are crucial for driving organizational impact in both academia and industry. To foster an environment that respects and cherishes a culture of inclusion and belonging, we propose organizing a social event that connects diversity and inclusion (D&I) initiatives with people attending CVPR. The goal of this event is to raise awareness and build connections among CVPR attendees who are interested in participating in or creating D&I initiatives. We believe that by bringing together organizations such as AI4ALL, Women in Computer Vision, CIFAR, Let’s SOLVE it from Borealis AI, etc., this social event can serve as a bridge between different organizations and promote future collaborations.
How to Negotiate Industry Offers in AI proposal
Join our social event to get the tools, information, and data you need to negotiate your next offer more confidently. Some of the topics we'll cover in a 2 hour period (including 45 mins for Q&A) are: Understanding the fundamentals of compensation in tech (particularly around equity, - bonus structures, etc.), data points for different levels/positions in AI, how to get over your fears of negotiating, how to decide which company / offer is right for you, how to negotiate without counter offers and without knowing "market value", how to respond to pushback from recruiters and other guilt tripping / lowballing / pressure tactics, how to avoid having an offer rescinded, how to negotiate deadline of an offer and walking through a timeline of the negotiation process for a new offer.
AMA with Senior Faculty and Industry Leaders
This is a casual networking event for graduate students, faculty members, and industry professionals. There will be standing tables, light food, and drinks provided by the event sponsors. Students will have a chance to connect with fellow graduate students and mentors from various backgrounds, at a variety of stages throughout their careers.
Black in AI Social
Africa has the second-largest population in the world with around 1.4 billion people as of 2022. With the increasing amount of visual data and the growing rate of its data footprint, the impact of extending Computer Vision research to solving local problems specific to Africa has become an ever-increasing need. This social event aims to bring together a unique community of people who self-identify as Black and/or from African origin or support the Black community at its first gathering in CVPR. Our main goal is to create a platform where Black researchers are comfortable meeting with other people without feeling out-of-place and to enforce a strong connection of like-minded individuals whose main or sub-goals is to empower the African community and Black Computer Vision researchers. This social, therefore, has several aims:
- Empowering Black and African origin researchers by affirming their sense of belonging to the Computer Vision community specifically in CVPR.
- Providing mentorship and guidance to young researchers from the Black and African origin community.
- Allowing both Black and African-origin researchers and their supporters/allies to gather and network within the Computer Vision community.
- Celebrating African grassroots in AI, especially in the field of Computer Vision.
CV Entrepreneurship – Founders, Freelancers & Friends
CV Entrepreneurship: Founders, Freelancers & Friends comes to CVPR to help entrepreneurially minded members of the community find mentors, collaborators, and friends! Computer Vision is a vibrant and rapidly expanding field, and many folks are choosing to blaze their own paths outside of the corporate and academic worlds. Entrepreneurship presents its own unique mix of challenges and opportunities. Whether you’re already a business owner looking for others who can relate to your experience, or you aspire to venture out on your own in some way, this is the event for you. Everyone has something to share, and something to learn. Walk away with a few new friends, inspiring ideas, some helpful resources, and enthusiasm toward your own entrepreneurial path. The goal of “Each One, Teach One” is to help members of the community develop curated connections over areas of mutual interest. Whether it’s a specific research technique, how to magnify your impact, or how to accelerate your research experiments, someone at CVPR is passionate about sharing their point of view on that topic. Come to this event to meet them!
Everyone has something to share and something to learn. Walk away with a few new friends, some of whom are experts in areas you are curious about, and some of whom are curious about your areas of expertise.
