Electronic Paper Submissions

To submit a paper, you have to register it on the workshop home page by filling out all the requested information. To facilitate fast review process, electronic submissions are encouraged in PDF or PostScript format to the workshop home page by December 15, 1999. Alternatively, four paper copies can be submitted via regular mail to the workshop secretariat.
Papers must be written in English and should not be longer than 20 double-spaced pages. Accepted papers will be scheduled for oral or poster presentation and will be printed in the Pre-proceedings which will be available at the workshop for the participants. Authors of accepted papers, or at least one of them, should be registered and are expected to present their works (oral or poster presentations) in the workshop.

Technical Program

You are invited to participate in an intensive, three-day, single-track workshop on Biologically Motivated Computer Vision(BMCV2000). This workshop aims to facilitate debates on biologically based systems and to provide a chance for the researchers in the area of computer vision to exchange up-to-date knowledge and experiences. Although the workshop will focus on theories and implementations of computer vision and on modeling for human or animal vision, any contribution of related area including e.g. visual psychophysics, neuroscience, robotics and cybernetics will be highly encouraged.

The topics of interests include, but are not limited to :

          Active vision
          Biological vision
          Color perception
          Computational model for biological vision
          Eye movement techniques
          Foveation
          Head-eye platform
          Implementation of biological vision
          Motion analysis
          Neural network-based pattern recognition
          Neural system models
          Object recognition
          Perceptual organization
          Retinal image processing
          Robot vision
          Selective attention
          Space-variant image representation
          Stereo and motion analysis
          Target tracking
          Visually-guided motor control
          Innovative Applications
