Many congratulations to CVSSP student Oliver Cory

His paper, "Modelling the Distribution of Human Motion for Sign Language Assessment" was accepted for oral presentation at the Assistive Computer Vision and Robotics ACVR2024 workshop at the European Conference on Computer Vision ECCV2024. Other CVSSP participants in the paper are ?zge Mercano?lu, Matthew Vowels, and Principal Investigator Richard Bowden. This is work done with partners in Switzerland as part of ongoing collaborations in the SMILEII and IICT Flagship projects.
