Do you want to connect with the European AI research community? NeurIPS Europe is coming to Paris (Dec 9th-13th) and we are looking for sponsors to help to make it happen. Tiers from Bronze (10k€) to Platinum (60k€). neurips.cc/sponsors/pro... @ellis.eu

The instance level recognition and generation workshop will be back at @eccv.bsky.social 2026. With excellent keynote speakers, a call for papers, and travel grants for students.

Do vision and vision-language foundation models suffer from shortcut learning? Is this only a curse or also a blessing? I'm excited to discuss our recent work at the AMD AI Research Club session with Pier Luigi Dovesi. 📅 May 28, 2026 — 2PM Prague time Register here 👇 amd.zoom.us/webinar/regi...

Our AI for Peace workshop will take place tomorrow, 26th of April, 9:00 AM - 5:00 PM in room 206. #ICLR2026 @iclr-conf.bsky.social If you are worried about the military uses of AI, come to support us and get informed! 🗓️ 26th of April, 9:00 AM - 5:00 PM 📍206

🇧🇷 Presenting our ICLR 2026 paper “Efficient Probing” (EP) today! ❓What if linear probing is asking the wrong question? 🥳 EP is a lightweight attention probing method that better evaluates local, patch-level representations from models like MIM. 📍Friday 24 April, P4-#3713, 15:15–17:45

The Visual Recognition Group at CTU in Prague organizes the 51st Pattern Recognition and Computer Vision Colloquium with Roman Bednarik, István Sárándi, Andreas Geiger, Jan Škvrna, Yuki Asano and Dániel Baráth. cmp.felk.cvut.cz/colloquium/#... Happening today, Thursday Apr 23, 11:00-17:00.

Back to self-supervised basics (rotation prediction, colorization) in the era of MLLMs. We discovered that simply interleaving SSL tasks with instruction tuning ones improves visual grounding of MLLMs, especially on vision-centric tasks. Check it out 👇

🚨 Happy to announce CVPR@Paris'26 which will take place on June 1st in Paris. The goal of the event is to share a little bit of the conference before it happens. We will have poster sessions as well as several plenary talks by world-class speakers. info: cvprinparis.github.io/CVPR2026InPa...

Let me introduce our new paper: Multimodal Large Language Models as Image Classifiers ❓ Multimodal LLMs are increasingly used for visual tasks, but evaluating their image classification ability has produced conflicting conclusions. Link: arxiv.org/html/2603.06...

Efficient Probing will be presented at ICLR 2026. We introduce EP, an attentive probing method that consistently outperforms linear probing and prior attentive approaches. It's a simple, intuitive design that avoids over-parameterization compared to the black-box use of standard components.

The new CTU Rector begins their term in office with strong support for excellence. CTU has just launched a Starting Grant to attract outstanding early‑career researchers who wish to join CTU and establish their own research group. Funding: up to €160k per year for 3 years. Deadline: 30 March 2026.

I have an opening for a two years post-doc position on instance-level (personalized) visual generation. Eligibility: (i) <=7 years from Ph.D. (ii) studies or 1 year outside of Czechia (ii) >=3 journal with IF or CORE A*/A conference papers. Deadline: 15 Feb. Details: www.euraxess.cz/jobs/399390

🚀New task: Instance-level Image+Text→Image Retrieval 🔎Given a query image + an edit (“during night”), retrieve the same specific instance after the change — not just any similar object. 🛢New dataset on HF: i-CIR huggingface.co/datasets/bil... 🔥Download, run, and share results!

📣 i-CIR dataset (NeurIPS 25) is now on @hf.co. 🚀Easier download + better discoverability + WebDataset shards for large-scale use (~750K images). 🤗 Grab it here: huggingface.co/datasets/bil... #computervision #retrieval #datasets #huggingface #NeurIPS

1/n REGLUE Your Latents! 🚀 We introduce REGLUE: a unified framework that entangles VAE latents ➕ Global ➕ Local semantics for faster, higher-fidelity image generation. Links (paper + code) at the end👇

This is a very serious initiative. While AGI risk debates get much attention, we should worry more about the immediate danger from AI’s role in automating war and surveillance.

Prof. @tokehoye.bsky.social (Aarhus University) and I have an open PhD position (jointly advised) on biodiversity monitoring with camera trap networks. Deadline: 15-Jan-2026 Please help us share this post among students you know with an interest in Machine Learning and Biodiversity! 🤖🪲🌱

There is a lot of work done recently on composed image retrieval, but we felt that none of the existing benchmarks reflect the real-world challenges and applications. So, we created a new test benchmark for instance-level composed image retrieval.

This is the real-world harm of computer vision: false accusations of gun possession over a bag of crisps. Deploying this in public is reckless. www.bbc.com/news/article...

Honored to receive a Google award to support research on vision-language models for retrieval. Grateful for the opportunity to strengthen our collaboration with Google researchers, especially Ahmet Iscen.

Today at #ICCV2025 (afternoon poster session): see how sensitive some foundational models are to non-semantic cues like JPEG compression and camera model. Such cues can heavily distort their semantic predictions.

Join our Instance-level Recognition and Generation workshop at #ICCV2025 with keynote and oral/poster presentations on image object recognition and generation at its finest granularity; each unique object of the physical world forms its own class.

The colloquium at CTU in Prague had 6 great talks and a lot of discussions before, during and after the event. The slides are now shared online. It was the 50th and our administrators surprised us with a huge Czech cake - Koláč. See you in April again!

correlation does not equal causality

Interesting graphs from csconferences.org Trying to predict the inflection point of the sigmoid.

Crash test your foundational models for object recognition at its finest granularity. Here are the updated results on our instance-level image retrieval benchmark (ILIAS-CVPR'25). DINOv3 and Perception Encoder (PE) are included, with DINOv3 being the new SoA! Oh, but no, look at this...

Hi friends! I made a computer vision feed that was missing on Bluesky. You can find it here: bsky.app/profile/did:.... Pin it to your profile if you like it. 😉 It filters relevant posts based on regular expressions. But to make sure that your post is included in the feed, add the #skyvision tag.

The hidden flaws in your favorite foundation model: We've uncovered how subtle image metadata (JPEG params, camera type, etc.) systematically biases visual representations and consequently affect the object recognition ability. To be presented at #ICCV2025 as a highlight paper.
