Second International Workshop on
Statistical and Computational Theories
of Vision
-- Modeling, Learning, Computing, and Sampling
Vancouver, Canada, July 13, 2001.
With ICCV2001
July 9-12
Selected papers will be published (subject to peer review) in a special issue of
Int'l Journal of Computer Vision
Goals and Scope
The last decade has witnessed rapid progress in computer vision and
statistical methods are successfully applied to all aspects of
vision. These advances, combined with increasing computer power,
make us optimistic about tackling difficult and exciting
problems such as building general purpose visual
inference machines for segmentation, recognition,
and tracking.
This workshop will provide an international forum for discussing recent
advances in the statistical and computational theories of vision and
for studying solid theoretic foundation for integrated
vision systems. The workshop is aimed at
brings together highly respected researchers from computer vision, mathematics,
statistics, information theory, and psychology to address key issues in
Bayesian image analysis. Original papers are solicited on topics including, but are not
limited to:
Advanced theories for statistical modeling of realistic visual patterns,
Advanced theories for visual learning from observed visual patterns,
Advanced techniques for efficient computation and search,
Advanced techniques for Markov chain Monte Carlo Sampling.
Advanced theory for performance bounds on the accuracy of models and
speed of algorithms.
Relations of the above theories to biologic vision at the
neural, psychophysical, and cognitive levels.
Applications and Systems for image segmentation, perceptual organization, object
recognition, tracking, motion analysis.
