INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON COMPUTER VISION (ICVS06) New York City 2006 http://www.cs.colostate.edu/icvs06/ The 4th IEEE International Conference on Computer Vision Systems will be held in New York City on January 5-7, 2006. This conference aims to gather researchers and developers from academic fields and industries worldwide to share their research results covering all aspect of computer systems that see. It will mainly focus on the system development and less on vision algorithms. An effort will be made to be relevant to the practitioners building the computer vision systems, and to allow them to exchange knowledge and ideas. A major theme will be dynamic vision systems that respond to their environment or interact it, and an emphasis will be given to complete systems that are robust enough to be deployed in the real world. ICVS solicits original, unpublished high quality scientific papers of at most 10 pages (Springer LNCS Format) on the design, control and evaluation of vision systems. The program committee cordially invites you to attend ICVS 2005 and submit papers addressing the following themes: * Architectural models for computer vision systems design methods * Design methods for vision systems * Case studies and analysis of real deployment of computer vision systems * Cognitive models for interpretation, integration and control * Methods and metrics for performance evaluation * Computer vision systems interface design and evaluation Papers will be reviewed by an international program committee according to the following criteria: * Pertinence: Does the paper describe methods or theories concerning the theme of the conference? * Scientific quality: does the paper clearly identify a scientific problem, document the state of the art and demonstrate an original technique or method that resolves the problem? * Impact: is the method/model likely to be adopted for the design or evaluation of computer vision systems? * Generality: Can the method/model be used for a variety of problems? Is it non-specific? * Innovation: Does the method/model demonstrate an improvement in the current state of the art? Submission of papers: 1 August, 2005 Acceptance notification: 15 September, 2005 Camera ready paper: 15 October, 2005 Workshop/tutorial proposal: 1 August, 2005 Exhibition proposal: 15 September, 2005 Early registration: 15 November, 2005 INSTRUCTIONS FOR AUTHORS Prior to the submission deadline, connect to the conference web server to enter the title, author names and addresses, abstract and keyword. The paper will then be assigned a paper identification number. Full papers must be submitted electronically for review in the conference format (Springer LNCS). Papers will be allocated 10 pages in the proceedings. WORKSHOPS, TUTORIAL PROPOSALS To be announced. EXHIBITIONS To be announced.
