BMVA British Machine Vision Association and Society for Pattern Recognition http://www.bmva.ac.uk/meetings INDUSTRIAL INSPECTION One Day BMVA Technical Meeting in association with UKIVA and IEE/E4 to be held on the 1st December 1999 at British Institute of Radiology, 36 Portland Place, London. Chairperson: Majid Mirmehdi (University of Bristol) ABSTRACT: Industrial Inspection is one of the most profitable areas of Computer Vision as it is one of the few areas which can truly provide working, practical, real-world solutions to real-world problems. It combines image acquisition devices, high-speed computers, simple and complex algorithms, and robotics to oversee and automate manufacturing processes. The aim of this meeting is to bring together a number of talks on the application of novel image processing and computer vision techniques to solve real-world problems. 11:00 Algorithms for real-time location of contaminants in cereals, E.R.
