CVCG2011  	Second IEEE International Workshop on Computer Vision for Computer Games
Saturday June 25th 2011, Colorado Springs
 
 
Dear Colleage
 
CVCG2011
This year the Second IEEE International Workshop on Computer Vision
for Computer Games (CVCG2011) will be held in conjunction with
CVPR2011 in Colorado Springs on Saturday June 25th 2011.
 
Call for Papers
Research into visual game-interaction technologies is becoming one of
the core problem areas of the computer vision research community. The
field enjoys well-funded national and international funding
programmes, especially in collaboration with industrial partners
boasting a plethora of companies. This work offers a novel
human-computer interaction experience. Yet, despite the apparent
interest, the core problems remain as complex and varied as any in
computer vision. The deployment of truly intelligent and robust
human-computer interaction systems face a number of specific
challenges including the segmentation and tracking of individuals in
bad illuminated scenes; extracting body pose; characterization of
actions; reduction in false alarm rates; real time 3D scene
reconstruction and motion analysis; and the semantic linkage and
fusion between different sensors. To address these challenges,
contributions are particularly welcome in the following areas:

    * Real time (low complexity) object, sketch and face recognition and tracking
    * Action and activity analysis and recognition
    * Real time motion estimation
    * Face, hand, and human body pose estimation
    * Non-traditional sensor technology (e.g. depth cameras)
    * Scalability - computational efficiency (cuda computing, shaders etc)
    * 3D scene reconstruction
    * Visual metrics
    * Multi-Camera and multi-sensor Fusion
    * Camera-phone based gaming
