US-China Workshop on Mathematical, Computational, and Applied Aspects of Computer Vision and Pattern Recognition
August 29--September 2, 2005
¢ñ£®Goals and Scopes
This workshop aims to improve research in the field of computer vision and other related subjects in China. During the workshop, we will offer two weeks of lectures, designed for young scientists from Chinese universities and institutes. Another goal of this workshop is to discuss how to set up a general image database for vision. This database will provide vast amounts of manually parsed images as learning samples or ground-truth examples in computer vision research. The workshop will cover the basic theory of computer vision, as well as math and statistics, computing theory, algorithms, and other applied areas. The details are as follows:
- Basic problems of computer vision
Image segmentation
Perceptual grouping
Object recognition
Stereo vision and related topics
Motion analysis and tracking
3 Dimensional modeling
Lighting modeling - Fundamentals of computer vison
Markov fields and networks
Geometry and group theory
Harmonic analysis and PDEs
Statistical computing, Markov chain Monte Carlo
Learning and patt. Recog. theory
Graph theory, matching and grammar - Image compression and processing
Image/video coding and compression
Image restoration and enhancement
Image watermark
- Medical image processing and anlysis
Metrics and morphology
MRI analysis
Medical image segmentation
Shape representation - Biometrics and Surveillance
- Computer vision, computer graphics and cartoon animation
Human face, hair cloth modeling
Human portrait
Cartoon animation
Non-photorealistic rendering -
Automatic object recognition
