Great news! I received the First Place Award for the Best Doctoral Thesis (Ph.D. category) in the Workshop of Theses and Dissertations at the 37th Conference on Graphics, Patterns and Images (SIBGRAPI 2024), the largest national conference on Computer Vision in Brazil. The awarded thesis, titled “Text-driven Video Acceleration”, presents a methodology based on reinforcement learning to accelerate instructional videos using text. I would like to deeply thank my advisors, Prof.

We’ve got our paper accepted to the IEEE/CVF Winter Conference on Applications of Computer Vision (WACV)!

Our paper is titled “Leveraging synthetic data to learn video stabilization under adverse conditions”. For more details about the paper, please visit the Publications Section.

My Ph.D. thesis titled “Text-driven Video Acceleration” has been awarded First Place in the Ph.D. category at the Workshop of Theses and Dissertations during the 37th Conference on Graphics, Patterns and Images (SIBGRAPI 2024). This work was developed at VeRLab (DCC/UFMG) under the supervision of Prof. Erickson R. Nascimento and Prof. Leandro Soriano Marcolino. It presents a reinforcement learning methodology for accelerating instructional videos using text. Details about the associated paper can be found in the Publications Section.

Our paper titled “Musical Hyperlapse: A Multimodal Approach to Accelerate First-Person Videos” has been awarded the best Pattern Recognition and Related Fields paper in the SIBGRAPI 2021 - 34th Conference on Graphics, Patterns and Images.
