DESCRIPTION:Nikos Paragios\, CentraleSupelec/University of Paris-Saclay/In
 ria\nComputational vision\, visual computing and biomedical image analysis
  have made tremendous progress of the past decade. This is mostly due the 
 development of efficient learning and inference algorithms which allow bet
 ter and richer modeling of visual perception tasks. Hyper-Graph representa
 tions are among the most prominent tools to address such perception throug
 h the casting of perception as a graph optimization problem.\n\nIn this ta
 lk\, we briefly introduce the interest of such representations\, discuss t
 heir strength and limitations\, provide appropriate strategies for their i
 nference learning and present their application to address a variety of pr
 oblems of visual computing.\n\nBio: Nikos Paragios is professor of Applied
  Mathematics and Computer Science\, director of the Center for Visual Comp
 uting of CentraleSupelec/University of Paris-Saclay\, affiliated scientifi
 c leader at Inria and senior fellow of mathematics at the Institut Univers
 itaire de France. He is an IEEE Fellow (2011)\, has co-edited four books\,
  published more than two hundred papers in the most prestigious journals a
 nd conferences of medical imaging and computer vision (DBLP server)\, and 
 holds twenty five international patents. His work has approx 16\,750 citat
 ions according to Google Scholar and his H-number (09/2016) is 61.\n\nHe i
 s the Editor in Chief of the Computer Vision and Image Understanding Journ
 al and serves as a member of the editorial board for the Medical Image Ana
 lysis Journal (MedIA) and the SIAM Journal in Imaging Sciences (SIIMS). He
  as served as an associate/area editor/member of the editorial board for t
 he IEEE Transactions on Pattern Analysis and Machine Intelligence (PAMI)\,
  the Computer Vision and Image Understanding Journal (CVIU)\, the Internat
 ional Journal of Computer Vision (IJCV) and the Journal of Mathematical Im
 aging and Vision (JMIV) while he was one of the program chairs of the 11th
  European Conference in Computer Vision (ECCV'10\, Heraklion\, Crete)\, is
  the program chair of the upcoming IEEE International Conference in Comput
 er Vision (ICCV) 2019 edition (Seoul) and serves regularly at the conferen
 ce boards of the most prestigious events of his fields (ICCV\, CVPR\, ECCV
 \, MICCAI). Professor Paragios is member of the scientific council of SAFR
 AN conglomerate and of the University of Paris-Descartes. His research int
 erests are in the area of computer vision\, biomedical image analysis and 
 machine learning/optimization.
