We are delighted to announce the following paper awards. Papers were nominated by (non-conflicted) area chairs and programme chairs to create a shortlist. This shortlist was then sent to an independent awards committee who made the final recommendations.

The BMVC Awards Committee was composed of Prof. Lourdes Agapito (University College London), Dr Dima Damen (University of Bristol) and Dr Andrew Fitzgibbon (Microsoft Research).
