CVPR2016 Tutorial: 3D Deep Learning with Marvin

Introduction

In recent years, deep learning has made unprecedented progress in artificial intelligence tasks from speech recognition to image retrieval. However, though language (one-dimensional) and images (two-dimensional) have received incredible attention, existing methods poorly serve the three-dimensional data that drives a broad range of critical applications such as 3D object recognition, medical imaging, neuroscience, autonomous driving, to scientific simulations. In this tutorial, we plan to teach the basic concepts of three-dimensional deep learning. We will talk about how to use our 3D deep learning software framework Marvin. We will also give examples of applying 3D deep learning algorithm to computer vision tasks, one using a discriminative model and the other using a generative model. Finally, we will introduce a few datasets for training these algorithms.
