The State of the Art in Automated and Semi-Automated Video Coding Workshop

MIDAS Annual Data Science Symposium: The State of the Art in Automated and Semi-Automated Video Coding Workshop, Nov 10, 2:45-4:15, Please register for the annual symposium as well as this workshop or one of the five others offered.

Video is being acquired at an alarming rate across domains, including social research, healthcare, entertainment, sporting and more. The ability to code this video—attribute certain properties, labels, and other annotations—in support of analytical domain-relevant questions is critical; otherwise, human coding is required. Human coding, however, is laborious, expensive, not repeatable, and, worse, often error prone. Video coding, an area within artificial intelligence and computer vision, seeks automated and semi-automated methods to support more effective and robust video coding. This workshop will review the state of the art in video coding from a capabilities, limitations and tooling perspective and present real-world use-cases.
