BMVA Summer School is an annual summer school on computer vision, organised under the auspices of the British Machine Vision Association and Society for Pattern Recognition (BMVA). The course is residential, usually spanning five days, and consists of lectures and practicals in diverse topics in image processing, computer vision, pattern recognition. It is intended that the course will complement and extend the material in existing technical courses that many students/researchers will encounter in their early stage of postgraduate training or caeeers. It will provide an opportunity to broaden awareness of knowledge and techniques in Vision, Image Computing and Pattern Recognition, and to develop appropriate research skills. In addition to the academic content, the Summer School provides a networking opportunity for students to interact with their peers, and to make contacts among those who will be the active researchers of their own generation. It is open to students from both UK and non-UK students. The summer school has been hosted by various universities in UK that carry out Computer Vision research, e.g., the University of Manchester, Kingston University and Swansea Univeristy.

It has run successfully since the mid-1990’s, and is updated every year to ensure it covers the state of the art, broadens awareness of related research fields, and develops research skills. Speakers on the Summer School are academic researchers or experienced practitioners from industry.
