NEC Labs America is heading to Denver for CVPR 2026, June 3-7, one of the most prestigious gatherings in computer vision and AI. The IEEE / #CVF Conference on Computer Vision and Pattern Recognition brings together researchers, engineers, and innovators from around the world to share breakthroughs in computer vision, machine learning, and pattern recognition. Our researchers will be presenting at workshops, delivering virtual presentations and showcasing posters. • AUTOPILOT Workshop (June 3) – Ali K. AlShami, Ph.D. is on the organizing committee for this workshop on safety-critical autonomous driving, bringing together academia and industry to explore robust perception, prediction, decision-making, and motion planning. • Uncertainty-Aware Knowledge Distillation for Multimodal Large Language Models - Jingchen Sun (Intern) and Shaobo Han present a poster on Beta-KD. The key question: can uncertainty tell a multimodal LLM when to trust the teacher versus the data? We formulate knowledge distillation as Bayesian inference with uncertainty-aware weighting. • Object-Aware 4D Human Motion Generation (June 4) - Deep Patel presents virtually on generating realistic, object-aware human motion across space and time.
