Held from December 10-13, 2025 the conference served as a premier platform for knowledge exchange,
fostering collaboration between academia and industry while showcasing breakthrough innovations in vision and imaging technologies. CVIP 2025 featured eight keynote addresses delivered by internationally renowned experts, providing
attendees with insights into the latest advancements in AI and computer vision. The distinguished speakers
included Prof. Anil K. Jain (Michigan State University, USA), IEEE, ACM, AAAS, SPIE and IAPR Fellow,
Prof. Mohit Bansal (University of North Carolina Chapel Hill, USA), AAAI Fellow, Prof. Bob Fisher, IAPRPresident and Professor of Informatics at University of Edinburgh, Scotland, Prof. Dinesh Manocha
(University of Maryland, USA), IEEE, ACM and AAAI Fellow, Prof. Timothy Baldwin, Provost at
MBZUAI Abu Dhabi and Melbourne Laureate Professor, Prof. Richa Singh (IIT Jodhpur), IEEE Fellow,
Prof. Venu Govindaraju (University at Buffalo, SUNY) and Prof. Sanjay K. Singh (IIT BHU, Varanasi).
A unique feature of CVIP 2025 was the dedicated Industry-Academia Day on December 10, which
facilitated meaningful interactions between research scholars and industry leaders. The day featured
presentations from prominent organizations including Microsoft, MathWorks, Vehant technologies,
CARPL.ai and SegriTech.
The conference also featured specialized workshops on Quantum Algorithms and Their Applications in
Computer Vision and Image Processing by IBM, along with hands-on sessions by MathWorks on vision-
guided UAV simulation. The conference covered diverse topics including AI-powered image analysis, deep
learning for computer vision, medical image analysis, autonomous vehicles, biometrics and forensics,
quantum computer vision, explainable AI, and generative AI applications.
The proceedings of the conference will be published by Springer in the Communications in Computer and
Information Science (CCIS) series, which is indexed in Scopus, DBLP, Google Scholar, EI-Compendex,
Mathematical Reviews, and SCImago. The conference also featured presentations on national R&D
initiatives through ANRF (Anusandhan National Research Foundation) and included a session on Post-
Quantum Cryptography and its applications by Dr. Divesh Aggarwal, Associate Professor at the National
University of Singapore.
A tutorial on "Graph based Models for Computer Vision in Pre and Post Deep Learning Eras" by Prof.
Ananda S. Chowdhury, Professor at Jadavpur University and Associate Editor of IEEE Transactions on
Image Processing, provided valuable insights to young researchers.
