 IIIT Hyderabad shines at CVPR 2025 with over 7 Research Papers Across Tracks

A large contingent from IIITH’s Computer Vision Lab participated at the Conference on Vision and Pattern Recognition (CVPR) last month in Nashville. Computer vision researchers aim to have a paper accepted in CVPR to have validation of the quality of research work, its significance and a strong indicator of its potential for impact. CVPR is regarded as one of the top 3 prestigious conferences on computer vision and is ranked second (only to Nature) overall by Google Scholar Metrics outperforming several leading journal publications. It typically has a less than 30% acceptance rate for all papers and less than 5% for oral presentations. CVIT at IIITH has been associated with the prestigious conference dating all the way back to 2008 when Prof. CV Jawahar was selected as an ‘Outstanding Reviewer’. Since then the lab has been marking its presence at the conference annually with a number of paper presentations. This year too, a large contingent from IIITH stood out for their research haul of over 7 papers.
