might be interested.
CALL FOR PARTICIPATION
5th VIPS ADVANCED SCHOOL ON COMPUTER VISION,
PATTERN RECOGNITION AND IMAGE PROCESSING
September 26-29, 2005, Verona, Italy
This school is the fifth of a series of intensive courses,
aimed at PhD students and researchers in the areas of Computer Vision,
Image Processing and Pattern Recognition. It is organized and
sponsored by the Vision, Image Processing and Sound (VIPS) Laboratory
of the Department of Computer Science, University of Verona. The
course is residential, spanning a week, so that attendees can install
a more productive interaction with the lecturer.
Invited speakers
===============
Prof. Horst Bischof
*Institut for Computer Graphics and Vision
Technical University, Graz, Austria
Prof. Ales Leonardis
*Faculty of Computer and Information Science
University of Ljubljana, Slovenia
Course Title
============
VISUAL LEARNING AND RECOGNITION
Course program
==============
Generic Issues:
*Cognitive visual systems
*Complexity of visual recognition
*Generative vs. discriminative methods
Visual Representations:
*Evolution of object models (recognition methods)
*Generic (category-based) versus exemplar-based (geons, SQ, generalized
cylinders)
*Object-centered versus viewer-centered (perceptual grouping, features
-ease of indexing)
*Shape-based, appearance-based
Global Representations:
*Subspace Methods
*PCA, LDA, ICA, CCA, NMF, SVM, Kernel Methods
*Robust Recognition (occlusions, varying illumination, scale, cluttered
background, etc.)
*Mixture Representations (Multiple Eigenspaces, Split ASM)
Local Representations:
*Distinctive Regions (Harris, Hessian, Harris Affine, MSER, DOG,IBR,Kadir
& Brady)
*Local Feature (SIFT, Shape Context, Steerable Filters, Diff. Invariants)
*Performance Evaluation
*Extensions (Tracking, Constellations)
Issues in Visual Learning:
*Robust Learning
*Incremental Learning
*Learning with Minimal (No) Supervision --> Conservative Learning
Specific Approaches/Applications with possible exercises:
*Subspace Methods & Mobile Robotica
*Trainable models for object class detection
*Distinctive image features from scale-invariant keypoints (SIFT, Lowe)
*Recognition Demos
