____________________________________________________________ AMDO'2002 Call for Papers II Workshop on Articulated Motion and Deformable Objects (AMDO'2002) Palma de Mallorca, 21-23 November, 2002 CONTACT: http://dmi.uib.es/amdo2002 ____________________________________________________________ The International Association for Pattern Recognition (IAPR, the Technical Committee TC4), the Spanish Association for Pattern Recognition and Image Analysis (AERFAI) and the Computer Mathematics and Science Department of UIB are organising the second international workshop that will take place in Palma de Mallorca. The workshop aims at promoting interaction and collaboration not only among researchers working directly in the areas covered by the Technical Committee but also among those specialising in other related fields; those using computer graphics or applications that combine synthetic and analytical images. It is of particular interest to encourage links with research in areas of computer vision and computer graphics that share common problems and frequently use similar techniques. The AMDO2002 will consist of three days of lecture sessions, both regular (30mns) and invited presentations. The conference fee (approx. 325 Euro) includes a social program (conference dinner, coffee breaks, snacks and cultural activities). Students and IAPR members can register at a reduced fee.
