IEEE Workshop on Advanced Models and Methods for Face Recognition Beijing, China, October 12, 2003 http://brigade.umiacs.umd.edu/iccv2003 In Conjunction with the 9th IEEE International Conference On Computer Vision SCOPE OF THE WORKSHOP During the last 30 years, face recognition and related problems have attracted researchers from both the engineering and psychology communities. This area has become very active because of potential security and human computer interaction (HCI) applications. This one-day workshop (WAMMFR'03) will provide a focused international forum to bring together well-known researchers and research groups to review the status of face recognition, to discuss the challenges that we are facing, and to explore future directions. The workshop will consist of panel discussions and invited papers contributed by experts from the relevant communities. In addition, original high-quality papers are solicited on topics including, but not limited to, 1. Issues related to face modeling. For example, * Motion analysis, tracking and extraction of 3D face structure from image sequences using single or multiple cameras. * Detection and recognition of face objects under large 3D rotations, illumination changes, partial occlusions, aging, etc. * Face detection and recognition in low-quality, low-resolution surveillance video. 2. Advanced methods, including mathematical tools, novel sensors and algorithms for face recognition. 3. Psychology studies that can help us build better systems. 4. Demonstration of face recognition in outdoor environments. 5. Applications in which face recognition can be reliably accomplished.
