Organised by the British Machine Vision Association, the 18th BMVC will be held September 10-13 2007 at the University of Warwick, Coventry. Papers will be refereed on their originality, presentation, empirical results, and quality of evaluation. All papers will be blind-refereed, normally by three members of the international programme committee. Conference topics include both theory and applications (but are not limited to): * Statistics and machine learning for vision * Model-based vision * Stereo, calibration, and geometry * Image processing techniques and methods * Object recognition * Texture, shape, and colour * Motion, flow and tracking * Video analysis * Segmentation and feature extraction * Vision for visualisation and graphics * Person, face, and gesture recognition * Document processing and recognition * Biomedical applications BMVC2007 will be a single-track meeting with oral and poster presentations. The proceedings will be available to delegates at the conference in hard copy and on CD. In addition to the contributed papers, BMVC 2007 will include presentations by invited speakers: Prof Hans Knutsson of Linkoping University and Prof Mubarak Shah of University of Central Florida. A pre-conference tutorial on visual simultaneous localisation and mapping (SLAM) will be given by Drs Andrew Davison (Imperial College, London), Andrew Calway and Walterio Mayol (University of Bristol). Delegates will be able to view poster presentations and see demonstrations by both industrial exhibitors and researchers. Delegates are also invited to stay to attend the one day workshop on Friday 15th September which will be organised by the EPSRC Vision, Video and Graphics Network (programme details TBA).
