Workshop on Video-Language Models

The growing relevance of video-language models in both academia and industry highlights the necessity for a dedicated workshop to address the unique challenges and opportunities this field presents. This workshop is designed to accelerate the development and practical application of video foundation models, which are crucial for interpreting and utilizing the extensive amounts of video data that make up a significant portion of global data. These models are increasingly vital for a range of applications, from video search and content creation to surveillance and robotics. Confirmed speakers are leading researchers in this field from UT Austin, University of Tübingen, and University of Bristol (Tentative), as well as prominent industry figures from Meta, Google DeepMind, and Microsoft, ensuring a rich exchange of knowledge. The diverse organizing team from universities, industry, and non-profit research institutes aims to foster broad participation and collaboration. This workshop aims to push the boundaries of video-language models, ensuring their development and deployment are ethical and responsible. It will serve as a platform for sharing knowledge, fostering collaborations, and setting future research directions in this rapidly advancing field.
