Preliminary Call for Participation

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/machine 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    Pre-proceedings of all contributed papers will be available at the workshop for the participants. After the workshop, the program committee plans to publish extended versions of selected key papers in other appropriate refereed outlets such as special issues of international journals. UP
