The Report of the 19th Visual Information Processing Camp

Abstract

We report the 19th Visual Information Processing Camp (VIP Camp) held from 21th to 23th, September 2019. The VIP Camp is taken place for the students who study visual information processing and other related research fields and it was 19th times this year. The VIP Camp is planned and operated every year by voluntary university students from all over Japan. The primary purpose of the Camp is to provide opportunities for practicing their research presentations and face-to-face discussion on them. The catchword of the Camp this year is “Next Stage”. As represented by the catchword, we arranged poster sessions with fast-forward presentations, and a group work session in which the participants discuss research papers presented “What is a good poster presentation?”, and so on. In this paper, we report the organizing activities for the 19th VIP Camp and discuss possibilities to improve the future VIP Camps by analyzing the answers in participant questionnaires.
