Professor In-so Kweon’s Laboratory students awarded the 1st place prize in “ChaLearn Looking at People Challenge”, ECCV 2018

Ph.D. candidate Dahun Kim, M.S candidate Sanghyun Woo, and Dr. Joonyoung Lee (Advisor: Prof. Inso Kweon) awarded the 1st place prize in “ChaLearn Looking at People Challenge” co-organized by Google, Amazon, and DisneyLab of the European Conference on Computer Vision (ECCV) held on September 9th.

 

The ‘Video Decaptioning’ challenge is a “video inpainting” task that recovers raw video by recognizing and eliminating arbitrarily mixed text in the video.

In particular, this work was recognized as a meaningful academic achievement by proposing a new concept “DVDNet: Deep Blind Video Decaptioning with 3D-2D Gated Convolutions” for video processing and they succeeded in restoring images with the overwhelming performance.

 

Congratulations.
