Dear Colleagues,
over the last few years we had excellent experiences with publishing datasets to draw the interest of the computer vision and machine learning community to our applications (see https://www.plant-phenotyping.org/datasets-impact). This not only led to increased visibility (>1600 downloads, >140 citations), but most importantly to highly increased accuracy of available solutions to our image analysis problems – because others worked on them ‘for free’.
With this workshop, we want to
- Share our experiences, including dos and don’ts
- Give advice and discuss how to promote our Juelich application problems successfully (offer image data together with ground truth, organize challenges and workshops, publish overview papers and problem statement papers as well as websites, follow F.A.I.R. principles etc.)
- Find people (you?) interested in publishing their data in a similar way to tap its full potential
- Join forces and discuss further steps
When: Thursday, 8 November, 10:00-12:00h
Where: IBG-2 seminar room (building 06.2, room 406)
If you want to join the workshop, please let us know until October 15th (e.g. reply to this email). Please also specify whether you want to present your own data and problem coming with it in a short lightning talk of 3-5 minutes (or simply come to listen).
Best regards and looking forward to see you at the workshop!
Hanno Scharr (IBG-2), Susanne Wenzel (INM-1) and Sven Rank (UE)
