Muscle (formerly Ivu, Image and Vision Understanding) is the Ercim working group on multimedia understanding through semantics, computation and learning. It gathers teams from both Ercim and non-Ercim institutions whose expertise ranges from machine learning and artificial intelligence to image/video/audio processing and multimedia database management.


Objectives of the Working Group

  • To act as a forum to discuss directions and trends in multimedia research
  • To support research by international cooperation
  • To form a training network for young researchers in all fields relevant to multimedia understanding

The tools used to implement these goals are

  • Regular meetings to set up challenges, policies and strategies
  • Mutual collaborations in research projects
  • Scientific workshops, seminars and summer schools for young researchers
  • Supervision of fellowship projects (e.g., within the Ercim Fellowship programme)
