ICCV
In plain wordsA major international computer vision conference, held in odd-numbered years, where much of the research on how machines interpret images and video is first presented.
The IEEE/CVF International Conference on Computer Vision, which meets in odd-numbered years and, with CVPRCVPR, prop. n.: The leading yearly conference on computer vision — teaching computers to understand images and video — and one of the most cited publication venues in any field of science., publishes the most selective and most cited work in computer visioncomputer vision, n.: The part of AI that lets computers make sense of images and video: recognizing faces, reading signs, spotting tumors on scans or judging how far away a car is.; its best-paper award, the Marr Prize, is named after the vision scientist David Marr. Notable ICCV papers include Mask R-CNN (2017), which extended object detectionobject detection, n.: Finding every object of interest in a picture or video frame, saying what each one is and drawing a box around it, for example all the cars, cyclists and pedestrians in a street scene. to outlining individual objects, CycleGAN (2017) for unpaired image-to-image translation, the Swin Transformer (2021), the Segment Anything ModelSegment Anything Model, prop. n.: A family of AI models from Meta that trace the exact outline of whatever you point to in a photo or video, whether by clicking on it, drawing a box around it or, in newer versions, naming it.

The European Conference on Computer Vision (ECCV), first held in 1990, meets in even-numbered years, so one of the two takes place alongside CVPR each year.
Origin
First held in 1987 in London under the sponsorship of the IEEE Computer Society; the Computer Vision Foundation later became co-sponsor.
