The program committee of the 2026 Conference on Computer Vision and Pattern Recognition (CVPR), one of the world’s leading artificial intelligence (AI) and computer vision research events, has released the details of this year’s technical program.
Co-sponsored by the IEEE Computer Society (CS) and the Computer Vision Foundation (CVF), CVPR 2026 drew a record number of paper submissions – 16,092, a 24 percent increase over 2025. Through a rigorous peer-review process, about one-quarter were accepted to the program, resulting in 4,089 paper presentations.
“CVPR submissions have more than doubled over the past five years, but the acceptance rate has remained highly competitive, consistently in the low-to-mid 20 percent range,” said Alexander G. Schwing, associate professor, electrical and computer engineering, University of Illinois Urbana-Champaign, CVPR 2026 program co-chair.
