The theme of this conference is application of geometric methods in
low-level vision tasks, specifically for shape and motion estimation.
Over the past few years, there has been increased interest in the use
of differential geometry and geometric probability methods for various
low-level vision problems. Papers describing novel contributions in
all aspects of geometric and probabilistic methods in low-level vision
are solicited, with particular emphasis on:
Differential Geometric Methods for Shape Representation
Probability and Geometry (Geometric Probability)
Energy-based Methods for Shape Estimation
Geometry and Motion Estimation

From: European Conference on Computer Vision <eccv92@dist.dist.unige.it>
Subject: Preliminary Announcement (ECCV92)
ECCV-92
Second European Conference on Computer Vision
PRELIMINARY ANNOUNCEMENT
May 18-23, 1992
Santa Margherita Ligure
ITALY
OBJECTIVES AND TOPICS
ECCV-92 will be held in Santa Margherita Ligure (Italy)
in May 1992. The main objective of the Conference is to pro-
vide a forum to present and discuss recent research advances
in the field of Computer Vision.
The first ECCV Conference was held in Antibes (France) in
April 1990 and was stimulated by the perception that the com-
munity of researchers working on computer vision in Europe has
grown considerably in the last few years. The ESPRIT initia-
tive and the increasing number of research projects carried
out jointly by scientists from different European Countries,
has helped the creation of a "network" of research centers
active in this field.
The Conference is open to international participation (in
ECCV-90 one third of the published papers came from outside
Europe) and all the papers will be evaluated by the Programme
Committee on scientific grounds.
Topics of interest are: Colour, Texture, Stereo, Motion,
Image Features, Stereo Motion Cooperation, Active Vision,
Shape, Vision based Control, Hardware Architectures, Applica-
tions.
STRUCTURE OF THE CONFERENCE
The programme will be articulated in three parts:
(1) A four day, single track Conference
(2) an "ESPRIT day" devoted to the presentation of ESPRIT
projects in the field of computer vision (this day will
be opened to non-European participants).
(3) Workshops on Esprit Basic Research Action on Machine
Vision.
PAPERS
Authors will be asked to present unpublished, original
papers either as LONG PAPERS (appoximately 20 double spaced
pages) or as SHORT PAPERS (approximately 7 double spaced
pages). A poster session will also be organized.
DEADLINES
November 1990: First Announcement
March 1991: Call for Papers
October 15, 1991: Submission of Papers
December 15, 1991: Notification of Acceptance
January 31, 1992: Final Version Received

PROCEEDINGS
The proceedings of ECCV-90 were published by Springer-Verlag
in the "Lecture Notes in Computer Science" series and it is
intended to make a similar arrangement for ECCV-92. The
proceedings will be distributed to participants at the begin-
nig of the Conference. In addition, a selection of the best
papers from ECCV-90 will shortly be published in a Special
Issue of Image and Vision Computing. Again, it is intended to
make similar arrangements for ECCV-92.
VIDEO PROCEEDINGS
In addition to the publication of the "paper proceedings" a
collection of videos will be produced showing the dynamic
results presented. The selection of the videos will be coordi-
nated by Giovanni Garibotto of ELSAG S.p.A.
RELATED EVENTS
Scientific Events: In the week preceding ECCV-92 the IEEE
Conference on Robotics and Automation will be held in Nice
(France). Santa Margherita Ligure is conveniently connected
through local transportation (train or car) for those who
whish to attend both events.
1992 Celebration of the Discovery of America: The year 1992
will be a special year for the city of Genoa. The city will
host a number of cultural and entertainement events in honour
of the 500th anniversary of the discovery of America by the
Genoese explorer Cristoforo Colombo. Among these events a
world exhibition and a new acquarium will be opened to the
public.
VENUE OF THE CONFERENCE
The conference will be held in Santa Margherita Ligure at the
Hotel Miramare. Santa Margherita Ligure is a small town in the
Italian Riviera close to the city of Genova. The Hotel
Miramare is located on the sea facing the Portofino Gulf a few
kilometers from the village of Portofino. Also close to the
conference site is the pleasant resort area of "Cinque Terre"
whose picturesque villages on the rocky coast can be reached
by train only. The Conference site can be reached by car or
by train from the major cities of the northern and central
Italy. The closest international airports are Genova, Pisa,
Milan and Rome.
