Information about the use of image data on the Internet

The Information Services Platform Laboratory of Universal Communications Research Institute acquires image data publicly available on the Internet and uses them for the research and development of image recognition technologies.
The results achieved from the aforementioned research and development may be published in papers which may include the original image data acquired from the Internet. The papers may be presented at national and international conferences as well as journals, and in doing so, the image data used may also be made available to the public to replicate the experiment, etc. Statistical information and models generated using such image data may be transferred to a third party and/or used for commercial purposes.
