3.  The Program
The program will consist of high quality  contributed  papers  on  all
aspects   of   computer  vision  and  pattern  recognition.   Original
(previously  unpublished)  manuscripts  on  topics  in  the  following
categories are solicited:

    Segmentation, Grouping
    Physics-based Vision
    Low-Level Processing
    Texture Analysis
    Pattern Analysis
    Motion Analysis
    Integration of Modules and Cues
    Shape and Object Representation
    Object Recognition
    Learning in Computer Vision
    Active and Real-Time Vision
    Multi-Sensor Image Analysis
    Applications

The conference is not limited to these topics.   If  a  paper  is  not
exactly  on  a  topic  in one of these categories, it may be specified
that the paper falls in two or more categories, or that the  paper  is
perhaps  best  not categorized at all.  The categories are designed to
closely match the papers with the expertise of the reviewers who  will
be   members  of  the  Program  Committee.   Every  category  will  be
represented by several Program Committee  members.   As  is  customary
with CVPR, reviewing will be double-blind.


4.  Paper Submission    Four  (4)  copies  of  manuscripts  should  be
received  no  later than OCTOBER 25, 1995 (this is a hard deadline) at
the following address:

    Professor Katsushi Ikeuchi
    Wean Hall 4212
    Computer Science Department
    Carnegie Mellon University
    5000 Forbes Ave.
    Pittsburgh, PA  15213-3891  USA

    Telephone: (412) 268-6349


The form of the manuscript should be as follows (in this order):

 (1)   First Title Page
       Contains   title,   author(s),   postal   address(es),   e-mail
       address(es),  abstract  up  to  200 words, and a list of one or
       more categories that best describe the topic of the manuscript.

 (2)   Second Title Page
       Contains title and abstract only.

 (3)   Summary Page
       Contains responses to each of  the  following  questions  (each
       answered separately):
         I. What is the original contribution of this work?
         II. Why should this contribution be considered important?
         III. What is the most closely related work by others and  how
         does this work differ?
         IV. How can other researchers make use of the results of this
         work?
         V. If any part of this  work  has  been  submitted  to  other
         conferences, workshops or journals, please state where it has
         been submitted and how it differs from this paper.

 (4)   The Manuscript
       No more than 30 pages (double-spaced, 12-point font)  including
       all text, figures and references (but no title or abstract).

Double submission of manuscripts to CVPR and ECCV  is  permitted,  but
double publication is not.
