Key Points

The author shares they had an AI-related paper accepted at a CVPR archival workshop but withdrew due to insufficient funds for author registration as a lone author.
They are looking for professor co-authors who might be willing to cover publication-related costs while allowing them to remain the first/lead author.
The post asks how to find professors or organizations (particularly in Europe/American universities) that could support authors financially.
The author also notes they have trust issues within their own college and is seeking safer, more reliable collaboration pathways.
Overall, the request is framed as advice on building academic partnerships to enable conference publication despite financial hardship.

So, I have a few research papers, which I feel are good enough for top conferences' workshops or adjacent proceedings, and maybe even the main conference itself.

I recently, submitted to and got accepted at a CVPR Archival Workshop (which is considered to be great in it's niche), but was forced to withdraw as I lacked the money to do the Author Registration as the lone author. I am from India, and have been financial ruined after being orphaned in a car accident.

Now, I want co-authors who are Professors willing to fund these costs, while letting me be the first/lead author, and don't ask for a lot of changes in the research work (mainly in various fields of AI).

Anyways to do this, like any European/American Universities where Professors are willing, or any organizatios? I have trust issues with people in my College.
