CALL FOR PAPERS

CVPR 2013 International Workshop on Human Activity Understanding from 3D Data (HAU3D’13)

http://ictr.uow.edu.au/hau3d13/index.html

SUBMISSION DEADLINE: March 24, 2013

Recent advances in 3D depth cameras, 3D information recovery from 2D
images/videos, and the availability of portable human motion capture
devices have been nurturing a potential breakthrough solution to the
problem of human activity understanding by using 3D data. This
workshop is to bring together leading researchers in the related
fields to advocate and promote the research into human motion analysis
using 3D data. The workshop aims to provide an interactive platform
for researchers to disseminate their most recent research results,
discuss rigorously and systematically potential solutions and
challenges towards a robust human activity understanding using 3D
data, and promote new collaborations among researchers.

This workshop calls for original and high-quality paper submissions
on, but not limited to, the following key topics:

    Acquisition of 3D data, including
        multicamera systems (with markers or marker-less)
        mocap devices and systems
        depth cameras
        active and passive 3D body scanning systems
        3D from 2D images/videos (including tracking & pose estimation)
        benchmark datasets
    Representation and feature descriptors, including
        representation of 3D human body and articulation
        representation of human body language
        hybrid 3D and 2D representations
        3D feature descriptors
        detection and tracking of 3D interest points
    Learning and recognition, including
        modelling of human motion and activity
        cross-dataset learning and recognition
        incremental and online learning
        use of contextual constraints
        recognition of gestures, actions and group activities
    Applications, including
        sports analysis
        synthesis and animation of 3D human motions
        Human-Computer-Interface (HCI)
        humanoid robotics
        surveillance & monitoring
        medical diagnosis, assessment and treatment (e.g. musculoskeletal disorders)
All accepted papers will be included in the CVPR 2013 proceedings.
