BMVC is the premier conference in the U.K. on computer vision and its related fields. Tsai's and Flagg's paper, "Motion Coherent Tracking With Multi-Label MRF Optimization," was one of 345 submissions to BMVC 2010. Just 8.7 percent were accepted for oral presentation. Professor Jim Rehg (IC) also is listed as a co-author on the paper.

Tsai is a second-year Ph.D. student. The publication was based on his research during his first two semesters at Georgia Tech. Flagg earned his Ph.D. in computer science and now is a computer vision research engineer at Photometria, a San Diego-based start-up focused on personal photo enhancement. Rehg is adviser to both students, who are also both members of the Computational Perception Lab.
