VideoRec'07: The First International Workshop on
Video Processing and Recognition
May 28-30, Montreal, Canada,
Marriott Chateau Champlain
http://www.computer-vision.org/VideoRec07
In conjunction with:
Canadian Conference on Computer & Robot Vision (CRV'07),
Artificial Intelligence (AI'07), Computer Graphics (GI'07) and Precarn
Intelligent Systems (Precarn IS07)
conferences
Aims:
The first international Workshop on Video Processing and Recognition is
organized in response to the ubiquitous presence and availability of video data
and its increasing importance in many applications including security,
television, entertainment, and Internet. The workshop is aimed at providing a
forum for computer vision researchers to share and demonstrate their latest
research in video processing and recognition and, hence, producing a collection
of high-quality computer vision papers contributing to the development of video
data processing analysis and recognition.
The VideoRec07 workshop is organized as a follow-up of past Workshops
on Video Processing: Video Processing for Security (VP4S-06), Face Processing
in Video: FPiV'04 (held jointly with CVPR'04) and FPiV'05 (held jointly with
CRV'05), with its interest extended from face detection, tracking, recognition,
coding etc. to people, objects, scene, action and event detection, tracking
and recognition, etc..
The VideoRec07 workshop focuses entirely on processing and analyzing
video data for the purpose recognition and understanding of the target, people,
and events, from such sources as TV, surveillance cameras or web/PDA cameras.
The workshop will consist of one day of oral and poster presentations and is
open to all attendees of the joint conferences: AI'07, GI'07, CRV'07.
The papers accepted for the workshop will be published by IEEE as part
of the CRV'07 Proceedings, the electronic version of which will be distributed
at the CRV'07 conference. The workshop proceedings will also be automatically
archived into the IEEE Computer Society's digital library and the IEEE's XPlore
and IEL digital libraries and indexed through the INSPEC indexing service.
Full paper submission & review:
Original full-size papers written in English analyzing video for recognition
and understanding are welcomed for submission. Reviewing of the papers will be
double blind. Each paper will be reviewed by at least three Program Committee
members.
The suggested topics are listed below:
- faces in video: tracking, detecting, memorizing and recognizing faces in
video
- people in video: tracking and backtracking people in video
- searching for objects in video
- scene and activity detection and annotation
- video-based alarm systems and video for crime prevention
- video for surveillance
- video for biometrics, soft- and hard- biometrics from video
- making video more intelligent
- multiple-person and gang tracking
- multi-camera people tracking
- combining video data with other sensor data: range, photo, fingerprints
- video over internet, issues related to privacy of video - face biometrics,
modeling, and models
- facial expression recognition and classification, and representation
- performance evaluation for face in video problems
- video-based benchmarks and databases
- processing of video from stereo and panoramic cameras
- rigid and non-rigid 3D motion estimation from video
- combining video and audio for person detection/recognition
- video-based interfaces and computer-human interaction for security
- analyzing multiplexed video, demultiplexing of video
- video event detection and recognition
- video database mining - improving quality of video: anti-aliasing and
super-resolution
Papers should be submitted electronically via the workshop website at
http://www.computer-vision.org/VideoRec07 and follow the instructions there.
They should not include any information that would indicate the author's
identity (references to authors' previous work should be left blank).
Tier 2 Submission:
The rejected papers and late submissions are welcomed for submission to the
workshop's Poster/Demo session. Posters/Demos papers will not be published in
the Proceedings. They will thus have however the same exposure to the attendees
of all joint conferences as other workshop papers, and will be included on the
workshop website. To submit a poster/demo paper, email extended abstract or
.pdf file of the paper to the Workshop Chairs by the Tier 2 Submission due
date.
Important dates:
January 12 - Tier 1 submissions March 6-Notification of acceptance/rejection
sent
March 21-Final paper due
April 10-Tier 2 submission due
May 28-30- Workshop is held
Registration and Venue:
Registration to the workshop entitles one to attend all other joint
conferences, and vice versa. Student participation is encouraged by
significantly discounted registration fees. Participation in the workshop
without submitting a paper is welcomed. For a single registration fee, the
workshop participants will also be able to attend the joint conferences. As
the second largest city in Canada, Montreal offers the visitors a variety of
affordable and interesting places to visit.
