BMCV2000 FINAL CALL FOR PAPERS IEEE International Workshop on Biologically Motivated Computer Vision http://image.korea.ac.kr/BMCV2000/ May 15-17, 2000 Hotel Inter-Continental, Seoul, Korea You are invited to participate in an intensive, three-day, single-track workshop on Biologically Motivated Computer Vision(BMCV2000). This workshop aims to facilitate debates on biologically based systems and to provide a chance for the researchers in the area of computer vision to exchange up-to-date knowledge and experiences. Although the workshop will focus on theories and implementations of computer vision and on modeling for human or animal vision, any contribution of related area including e.g. visual psychophysics, neuroscience, robotics and cybernetics will be highly encouraged. Important Dates Dec. 15, 1999 Paper submission due Jan. 15, 2000 Notification of acceptance Feb. 15, 2000 Camera-ready manuscript due Feb. 15, 2000 Advance registration due Topics The topics of interests include, but are not limited to : Active vision Biological vision Color perception Computational model for biological vision Eye movement techniques Foveation Head-eye platform Implementations of biological vision Motion analysis Neural network-based pattern recognition Neural system models Object recognition Perceptual organization Retinal image processing Robot vision Selective attention Space-variant image representation Stereo vision Target tracking Visually-guided motor control Innovative applications Invited Lectures Visual Grouping and Temporal Synchrony R.
