PAMI Young Researcher Award

This annual award recognizes a young researcher for their distinguished research contribution to computer vision. The award is given out by the IEEE Pattern Analysis and Machine Intelligence (PAMI) Technical Committee, and the selection is managed by the PAMI-TC awards committee. The winner will be announced annually at the IEEE Conference on Computer Vision and Pattern Recognition (CVPR).


About the Award


This award is made annually for a distinguished research contribution in computer vision by a young researcher within seven years of their PhD.


The award includes a 3,000 USD cash prize and a plaque. It is financially sponsored by the Journal Image and Vision Computing, and is the successor of the Outstanding Young Researcher Award that IVC gave out at CVPR 2012. The winners will be listed on the PAMI-TC web site.
