It’s been a minute. Back in London to visit @V_and_A and fantastic collaborators from @UCLDIS @UCLDH. Exciting to be back, even if briefly.

Many congratulations to Ziyi Chang for successfully defending his thesis with minor corrections and becoming a *Dr*! Ziyi is a PhD at @durham_uni supervised by me and George Alex Koulieris. Big thanks to Kia Nazarpour and Stuart James for being Ziyi's examiners.

Incredibly productive #codesign session with Sam Waugh @IMEMSDurham discussing how the use of extractive AI can empower humanist research methods. Thanks, Ita Mac Carthy, Richard Scholar and Ava Siena Cohen. Organised as part of Sam's @N8CIR #RSE Internship @durham_uni.

Great to discusss research with @comp_sci_durham. Well done @hubertshum for organising as our diligent Director of Research.

🎉 Excited our ReassembleNet paper is accepted to #ICCV2025! Tackling 2D fresco reassembly via diffusion, sparse keypoints & multimodal features. Great collaboration with Adeela Islam, Stefano Fiorini, @pmorerio, @alessiodelbue https://t.co/tB1vtZfe8P #AI4Heritage #ComputerVision

Join us @durham_uni & @MoniRail_ltd to build ML models for rail monitoring & predictive maintenance. 📍Flexible, MoniRail in Birmingham 💼 £39–44k | 🧠 AI + signal data 🗓️ Apply by 22 July: https://t.co/MyEJs8fHRp #AI #ML #KTP #RailTech #Jobs

Great couple of days at the Tharros Archaeological site 🇮🇹 with @StevenEllis74 & @Pompeiana79 from the Tharros Project. Fascinating to see their excavation & digital methods in action—plenty of inspiring chats & exciting future possibilities. Thanks to all who talked with me! 👏

Great few days @CVACinDURHAM hearing about all the interdisciplinary visuality can consider extraction. If near Durham, highly recommend exploring CVAC's future events.

I even managed to join the @IITalk summer party last night. Great event and well attended glad to see it’s back.

Great to be back @IITalk and @PAVIS_IIT talking as part of @dcitizens_proj. Thanks for the invitation, lots of interesting chats. @durham_uni @comp_sci_durham

Trains in the UK are the worst way to travel. Over crowded, no space for luggage. And to top it off crazy high prices. I refuse the cost of a flight to the US for first class so that I don’t have my bag on my lap and can actually work. @nationalrail, do better, help reduce CO2.

It's #EU 🇪🇺 #CL2Infoday time 🥳 All the news on upcoming calls, including exciting Heritage topics. It shocks me that these sessions still get the question: Can the UK take part in #HorizonEurope? Yes, very yes! Since January 2024, 1 Year 5 months ago worth of opportunities.

Surprised but grateful to be selected as an outstanding reviewer @CVPR. Sadly, I won't be in person to attend, but I'm sure the program will be great! (No bias) #CVPR2025 #Review

We welcome registrations for our 28th BMVA Computer Vision Summer, taking place at the @aberdeenuni from the 7th to 11th of July! Register here:👇 https://t.co/V5N29W2bcA

Well done Matteo Toso and Alessio Del Bue (@alessiodelbue) for presenting our work “Maps from Motion (MfM): Generating 2D Semantic Maps from Sparse Multi-view Images” at @3DVconf Paper at: https://t.co/1IxRZDYoXE @IITalk @comp_sci_durham @durham_uni

The BMVA Computer Vision Summer School @BmvaCvss registration is up! https://t.co/W89X0uY6Az Book now to learn and network with world experts in #ComputerVision in University of Aberdeen @aberdeenuni

A pleasure to be the external examiner for Manuel Rey Area’s @mreyarea PhD viva at @UniofBath. Fantastic work and a great read, well done! And to supervisors @c_richardt and @WenbinLi

After years of writing proposals and editing the table of contents, I've finally learnt how to stop headers from being included. A two-second search could save you lots of micro tasks. Always learning...

A fantastic innovation for frequent travelers is the eSIM, setup in minutes and keep other line active. E.g. 32GBP for 10 days of unlimited data (and I abused this like crazy) in Canada is really convenient and gives great peace of mind, roaming would be 70GBP and limited.

Today, we present a new real-world archaeology dataset for puzzle solving in frescos at #NeurIPS2024 as part of the @repairproject21. Join us from 16:30—19:30, West Ballroom A-D, Poster #5210 @IITalk @bengurionu @CaFoscari @unil @LaStatale @pompeii_sites @comp_sci_durham @unige
