Mission & Vision

Promote learning and system development in the field of Computer Vision and Biometrics. The research community will be constantly working to exchange ideas and become accustomed to the field through formal interactions with the experts of the domain. The lab will work as a channel to bring project funding from Government and Private sectors, which will facilitate member students, faculty and researchers to work on the real world problems in a collaborative environment.

Research Fields

Machine Learning

Computer Vision

Biometrics

Image Processing

Core Objectives

  1. The Lab will provide a platform to the students, faculty and research fellows to work together and initiate teaching and research activities in the area to unveil various concepts, and tools.
  2. The center will provide a common ground to the research community to discover challenges and possible solutions in computer vision.
  3. Teaching and learning will be the backbone of the future research activities, which would involve all stake holders.

The proposed center will contribute:
  1. In enhancing of quality education provided by Institute with emphasis on domain specific expertise.
  2. Grooming and Nurturing young talent willing to work in the field and facilitate with ample opportunities and guidance.
  3. In promoting research through investigating existing problems that can be solved with available tools and applications. 
  4. In identification of the problems where computer vision, machine learning and biometrics could serve as one of the best possible solutions 

The proposed Lab having the capability to:
  1. Establish infrastructure mostly through research funding.
  2. Leverage campus and state collaborations to that each benefits the other
  3. Provide seamless support between and among student service areas (including advising, tutoring, counseling, etc.),
  4. Productively involving both staff and faculty in these areas
  5. Expand into new, and emerging technologies
  6. Education, assessment, undergraduate research, etc.
  7. Collaborate with faculty, staff, students, community members, and programs engaged in related forms of experiential,
  8. Community-based teaching, learning, and scholarship, thereby helping to strengthen such efforts and generating new models.

Funding & Collaboration

CVBL has been involved in cutting-edge research and development activities very actively. Several short-term specialized courses (such as ADASIVA Series, Biometric Winter School, etc.) have been also organized by CVBL to train the manpower in the emerging areas. In order to provide the plateforms for the researchers to disseminate their research findings, CVBL has been involved in organization of internationally recognized scientific conferences, such as CVIP, CVMI, and UPCON. All these activities have been possible only due to the continuous supports from the funding agencies and collaborators.
