This workshop will showcase collaborations between the University of Oxford’s Visual Geometry Group (VGG) and museum and library collections in the field of Visual AI. VGG has collaborated with the majority of the Oxford GLAM institutions, addressing tasks such as visual search, image deduplication, object detection, image classification and video tracking
This workshop will consist of a one-hour (hybrid) presentation on these collaborations, demonstrating the practical benefits of Visual AI in collections management, research and user engagement. The second hour (in-person only) will allow participants to try out some of the methods demonstrated in the first hour, using Oxford GLAM and other datasets. All are welcome and no prior experience or coding ability is required, but participants should bring a laptop.
Please sign up:
The in-person event will be from 2-4pm in the Centre for Digital Scholarship in the Weston Library. Numbers are limited.
