CALL FOR PAPERS Vision Geometry XI (AM322) Part of SPIE's International Symposium on Optical Science and Technology Washington State Convention Center, Seattle, Washington July 7-11, 2002 GENERAL INFORMATION This conference is designed to bring together researchers who use geometric theory and techniques to solve problems related to computer vision. Contributions should focus on geometric or topological aspects. Specific solutions as well as overviews of more general topics are welcome. Topics of interest include but are not limited to: Geometry of 2D and 3D Digital Images . digital geometry and topology . approximations of curves and surfaces . geometry-based image segmentation in 2D and 3D . mathematical morphology . shape description and geometric similarity Object Geometry . geometric object models . geometric object recognition . 3D and 2D object features . invariance and geometric transformations . surface models and shape recovery Computational Geometry . complexity of algorithms for vision and image processing . object recognition and point pattern matching . convexity problems . Voronoi diagrams and Delaunay triangulations. Further areas of interest are integral, stochastic, and differential geometry as far as contributions are relevant to computer vision.
