SUMMARY:Distinguished Lecture Series: Laura Leal-Taixé
DESCRIPTION:We are pleased to announce the upcoming ELLIS Distinguished Lecture Series talk by Laura Leal-Taixé (NVIDIA, Technical University of Munich)!\n&nbsp;\nFrom handcrafted to end-to-end learning, and back: a journey for multi-object tracking\n&nbsp;\nThe challenging task of multi-object tracking (MOT) requires simultaneous reasoning about track initialization, identity, and spatiotemporal trajectories. This problem has been traditionally addressed with the tracking-by-detection paradigm, but recent research has focused on more recent end-to-end learning paradigms such as tracking-by-regression or tracking-by-attention. In this talk I will discuss all the paradigms shifts only to circle&nbsp;back right where we started, tracking-by-detection. Can this paradigm be state-of-the-art?\n&nbsp;\nProf. Dr. Laura Leal-Taixé is a Senior Research Manager at NVIDIA and also an Adjunct Professor at the Technical University of Munich (TUM), leading the Dynamic Vision and Learning group. From 2018 until 2022, she&nbsp;was a tenure-track professor at TUM. Before that, she spent two years as a postdoctoral researcher at ETH Zurich, Switzerland, and a year as a senior postdoctoral researcher in the Computer Vision Group at the&nbsp;Technical University in Munich. She obtained her PhD from the Leibniz University of Hannover in Germany, spending a year as a visiting scholar at the University of Michigan, Ann Arbor, USA. She pursued B.Sc. and M.Sc.&nbsp;in Telecommunications Engineering at the Technical University of Catalonia (UPC) in her native city of Barcelona. She is a recipient of the Sofja Kovalevskaja Award of 1.65 million euros in 2017, the Google Faculty Award&nbsp;in 2021, and the ERC Starting Grant in 2022. Her research interests lie in video understanding, e.g., multi-object tracking or video object segmentation, and visual localization.\n&nbsp;\n&nbsp;\nAll information:&nbsp;https://ellis-stuttgart.eu/events/2022-12-06-laura-leal-taixe/
