ICANN-WS on Kernel based Methods for Computer Vision

[Horst Bischof]

                   ICANN 2001 Workshop on 
       Kernel & Subspace Methods for Computer Vision 

        http://www.prip.tuwien.ac.at/~bis/kernelws/

                     Call for Papers 

Workshop Co-organizers:
                       Ales Leonardis
                       Horst Bischof

Scope of the workshop: 

This half-day workshop will be held in conjunction with ICANN 2001 
on August 25, 2001 in Vienna. 

In the past years, we have been witnessing vivid developments of 
sophisticated kernel and subspace methods in neural network and
pattern recognition communities on one hand and extensive use of
these methods in the area of computer vision on the other hand. 
These methods seem to be especially relevant for object and scene
recognition. The purpose of the workshop is to bring together scientists 
from the neural network (pattern recognition) and computer vision 
community to analyze new developments, identify open problems, and
discuss possible solutions in the area of kernel & subspace methods
such as: 

       Support Vector Machines 
       Independent Component Analysis 
       Principle Component Analysis 
       Canonical Correlation Analysis, etc. 

for computer vision problems such as: 

       Object Recognition 
       Navigation and Robotics 
       3D Vision, etc. 

Contributions in the above mentioned areas are welcome. 

The program will consist of invited and selected contributed papers. 
The papers selected for the workshop will appear in a Workshop 
Proceedings which will be distributed among the workshop participants.
It is planned that selected papers from the workshop will be published
in a journal. 


Important dates: 

Submission Deadline:         31.5.2001 
Notification of Accaptance:  29.6.2001 
Final Papers Due:            3.8.2001 

Submission instructions: 

A complete paper, not longer than 12 pages including figures and
references, should be submitted in the LNCS page format. The layout of
final papers must adhere strictly to the guidelines set out in the
Instructions for the Preparation of Camera-Ready Contributions to LNCS
Proceedings.  Authors are asked to follow these instructions exactly.

In order to reduce the handling effort of papers we allow only for
electronic submissions by ftp (either ps or pdf files).
