EVGEN - Event-based Vision in the Era of Generative AI - Transforming Perception and Visual Innovation Summary

The rapid convergence of event-based vision and generative artificial intelligence (Gen-AI) offers unprecedented opportunities to redefine perception and visual innovation. Event cameras provide asynchronous, high-temporal-resolution data that complements traditional frame-based sensing, while generative models have revolutionized content synthesis, restoration, and reasoning across modalities. The Event-based Vision in the Era of Generative AI (EVGEN 2026) workshop will serve as a forum to explore this synergy, addressing topics such as video generation and interpolation, motion deblurring and prediction, multimodal sensor fusion, gesture reconstruction, and applications in autonomous systems. By fostering dialogue among researchers from neuromorphic vision, computer vision, robotics, and AI, the workshop aims to inspire novel methods, highlight emerging applications, and chart new research directions. EVGEN 2026 will feature invited talks, poster sessions, lightning talks, and a panel discussion, bringing together leading experts and early-career researchers to shape the future of event-driven perception enhanced by generative models.
