The event included tutorial sessions (Vision for language people, and language for vision people). We had an increased presence this year.
Last year, we had a good presence in the last year’s workshop (http://amrahmed.blogs.lincoln.ac.uk/2011/09/19/vl-network-workshop-brighton/), had good discussions and useful feedback on the presented work.
Looking forward for similar, if not even better, experience this year.
Best wishes for the presentations.
