3–7 Jun 2026 HERON Presence at CVPR 2026
HERON – The Hellenic Robotics Center of Excellence was proudly represented at CVPR 2026, the IEEE/CVF Conference on Computer Vision and Pattern Recognition, held on June 3–7, 2026, in Denver, Colorado, USA.
HERON researchers Dr. Panagiotis Filntisis and Dr. Niki Efthymiou attended CVPR 2026 in person and presented four papers spanning multi-view 3D face capture, video saliency prediction, age-inclusive human mesh recovery, and head pose estimation.
The papers were first-authored by HERON researchers Panagiotis Filntisis, Kostantinos Chaldaiopoulos, Georgios Chatzichristodoulou, and Vasiliki Vasileiou, under the supervision of Prof. Petros Maragos, Director & Scientific Coordinator of HERON .
