Recent advances in image understanding have opened many avenues for computer vision-based intelligent services. These technological advances—which span a broad range of visual understanding tasks including object recognition, video event detection, image search, and scene reconstruction—can facilitate a variety of image analysis applications from visual identification of users to 3D city mapping and detecting child exploitation images. Moreover, by harnessing the power of the cloud, computationally-intensive vision tasks have become increasingly accessible to ordinary users. This session focuses on the latest developments in image understanding as well as a discussion on consumer services that they may enable.
