Xerox Research Center Europe

Participants : Zeynep Akata, Zaid Harchaoui, Cordelia Schmid.

The collaboration with Xerox started in October 2009 with a co-supervised CIFRE scholarship (2009-2012) on cross-modal information retrieval. A second three-year collaborative project on large scale visual recognition started in 2011. The goal is to design algorithms for large-scale image classification possibly in the presence of missing labels. The joint PhD student Zeynep Akata is supported by a CIFRE grant obtained from the ANRT. She graduated in early January 2014.
