The return of Abrego-Garcia to face due process in the US, after Trump officials swore he would never ever return to the US, is a reminder that politics matters and pressure works. Don’t give up. Don’t let the fascists relax.

Come do your PhD at RISE Lund with myself and Prof. Yifang Ban as supervisors! You will not only contribute to advancing state-of-the-art ML for Earth observation data — you'll also work hands-on with real-world use cases with diverse project stakeholders. career.ri.se/en-GB/jobs/5...

Can only be described as regime propaganda

For those in Switzerland (especially Zürich) - I strongly encourage you to go to the World Press Photo exhibition in the Landesmuseum. Like every year, it's completely soul-crushing, but so important. I have so much admiration for these photographers. www.worldpressphoto.org/calendar/202...

The call for applications has just been released for #CV4Ecology2026!! This three-week intensive program trains ecologists and conservation practitioners to develop their own AI tools for their own data. When: Jan 12-30, 2026 Where: SCBI @smconservation.bsky.social

📢 We have a PR[AI]RIE PhD position opening at Inria Paris co-advised with R. de Charette & @tuanhungvu.bsky.social [please distribute] 💡Topic: Physics-Grounded Vision Foundation Models ⏳Application deadline: 20 May 2025 🗓️ Start date: Fall 2025 📝Detailed description: linked below

I’ll be speaking at the upcoming Learning Machines seminar, tune in on May 8th 15:00 CET to hear about ML/RS for biomass estimation 🌳🛰️💻

Scientists: there’s only one solution to save coral reefs. “…coral restoration should not be used as a distraction from very-much-needed global actions to reduce carbon emissions and slow down planetary warming.” @MongabayOrg news.mongabay.com/2025/04/scie...

We're looking for a motivated PhD student to join the ECEO Lab at EPFL Valais to work on multi-modal foundation models for earth observation! 🌍🛰️💻🤓 Come work with us under the supervision of Prof. Devis Tuia! careers.epfl.ch/job/Sion-PhD...

Using the Coralscapes dataset, it becomes easy to transfer semantic information directly into 3D point clouds! Here's an example of a few images from a simple camera being used to make a semantic point cloud of an entire transect! #deeplearning #ai #coral #ai4conservation

to quote a colleague quoting a goose: “alignment to what? alignment to what??”

New dataset & pre-print: The Coralscapes dataset for semantic scene understanding in coral reefs! 🤿🎥🐟🐠🐡 Coralscapes is the first dataset consistently annotated for general-purpose semantic segmentation in reefs, spanning 174k segmentation masks of 39 benthic classes on 2074 images!

Le monde reports that on March 9th a French scientist heading for a conference was denied entry to the US. His computer and cellphone were searched, and messages to friends were found where he expressed his opinion on the Trump admin and their politics wrt to science. www.lemonde.fr/internationa...

@iccv.bsky.social “All authors are required to register as reviewers” - how do I proceed if my submitted paper is interdisciplinary and some of my co-authors don’t have a background in computer vision? They obviously should not review #ICCV2025

What will be the moment where the American people finally stand up against this?

Very impressive! Looking forward to trying it 🔥

I will be giving a talk on open-vocabulary 3D scene understanding at the next ZurichCV meetup! 🗓️ Date: Thursday, January 23rd 18:00 CET 📍Location: @ETH_AI_Center, please see zurichai.ch/events/zurichcv-7 for additional details!
