Workshop
to Computer Vision
at
the 5th International Conference on Computer Vision Systems (ICVS2007)
21st-24th March 2007, Bielefeld, Germany (http://www.icvs2007.org)
This
workshop aims to foster the transfer of knowledge from the area of
Computational Cognitive Neuroscience to Computer Vision. The seemingly
simplicity of visual perception has periodically attracted machine vision
scientists to build biologically inspired algorithms. Although such
biologically motivated algorithms have not revolutionized Computer Vision, we
believe that several reasons exist that motivate an ongoing exchange.
In
the recent years there has been much progress in the understanding of brain processes
such as visual attention, object recognition, learning of complex feature
detectors, decision making and high level cognitive control, to name a few.
This work is yet often not suitable for real world applications, but it might
lead to new developments, and in the long run, to better algorithms in machine
vision.
Topics
of interest:
We
invite contributions from the area of Computational Cognitive Neuroscience that
relate to Computer Vision. The contribution should emphasize those properties
of models that potentially lead to applications in Computer Vision. We do not
expect that these applications already exist.
Submission
process:
Abstracts
of max 1 page should be submitted to fhamker@uni-muenster.de.
The work should be novel but it can be already published. The primary criterion
of acceptance is the relevance for the workshop. The deadline is January, 15th.
