Interactive Computing Faculty Earn Test of Time Awards for Impactful Research

More than a decade after publication, the research impact of School of Interactive Computing faculty members Judy Hoffman and James Hays still resonates.

Hoffman, an assistant professor in computer vision, received a test of time award Thursday at the International Conference on Machine Learning (ICML) in Vienna, Austria, for a paper she co-authored in 2014.

Hays, an associate professor in computer vision and robotics, will receive a test of time award next week at the 2024 SIGGRAPH conference in Denver for a paper he co-authored in 2012. SIGGRAPH is the official conference hosted by the Association for Computing Machinery’s (ACM) Special Interest Group on Computer Graphics and Interactive Techniques.

ICML, SIGGRAPH, and other computer science conferences recognize researchers whose work is at least 10 years old and has had a lasting impact since publication.
