About VASBSD 2020
With recent surge in data-driven methods, the issues of biased and scarce data is quickly becoming a major roadblock in developing generalizable and scalable computer vision solutions, as well as effective deployment of these solutions in real-world scenarios. To address these challenges, researchers from both academia and industry must come together and make advancements in fundamental research and applied technologies. The organizing committee and keynote speakers of VASBSD 2020 consist of experts from both academia and industry with rich experiences in designing and developing robust computer vision algorithms and transitioning computer vision technologies into real-world solutions. VASBSD 2020 provides a unique platform for computer vision researchers to better understand and tackle the biased and scarce data problems in computer vision.
