Would anyone be able to help me with Fourier wedge-ring sampling ?
If you could explain to me how it works or give me some references I would be
very grateful.

Subject: Looking for Kohunen Self Organising Feature Map Programs
G'Day
I am looking for any implementations of Kohunen's self organising
feature maps in C or Fortran. I will port the S/W to my platform, but
implementations for Sun-Sparc or Decstations would be great. The S/W
will be used for analysing time series data generated by satellites
and the EISCAT radar. I would wish to include the author of the S/W as
co-author on any resulting paper(s).
Thanks in advance

Subject: Preliminary CFP: 1992 International Workshop on Visual Languages
Preliminary Call For Papers
1992 International Workshop on Visual Languages
September 15-18, 1992
Seattle, Washington, U.S.A.
Papers are solicited in the following subject areas: graphical
programming languages and environments, visualization techniques,
language aspects of virtual reality, authoring environments for
multimedia programs, novel interactive techniques for graphical
computer-aided design, computer-based graphical languages for human
communication, interactive image processing systems, spatial and image
database systems, graphical interfaces, languages for representation
of visual knowledge, cognitive aspects of visual languages, and theory
and practice of visual languages.
The workshop will be held on the beautiful, green campus of the
University of Washington in the city of Seattle, Washington. The
workshop period is an ideal time to visit Seattle, when the
probability of sunshine is highest, and the university is between the
summer term and the autumn term. Seattle was recently rated one of
the most livable U.S. cities, and it enjoys prosperous software and
aircraft industries. The city is within a 2.5-hour driving time of
three major national parks: Olympic, Mt. Rainier, and North Cascades.
During the workshop, an evening boat trip to nearby Blake Island for a
salmon bake in the native style is planned. A choice of inexpensive
dormitory accommodations or conventional hotel rooms is anticipated.
Send five copies of the complete manuscript (20-page maximum) with a
200-word abstract to Professor Steven Tanimoto, Department of Computer
Science and Engineering, FR-35, University of Washington, Seattle, WA,
98195, U.S.A. Papers must be received by March 15, 1992.
For further information, contact Steven Tanimoto, Fax (1)-206-543-2969,

Subject: Information on the Vision List Digest and services (long)
The INTERNET host site for the Vision List is Vision-List@ADS.COM for
list contributions and Vision-List-Request@ADS.COM for undistributed
correspondence. The Vision List is also distributed as the
COMP.AI.VISION newsgroup.
As the moderator, I am interested in stimulating exchanges on research
and other topics of significance to the vision community. Here is
some information which describes the List and related services.
* PLEASE check to see if you have access to the Vision List via the
* comp.ai.vision newsgroup. If you do, please access the List via the
* newsgroup feed and let me know so that I can remove you from the master
* List. This greatly reduces required net bandwidth and makes things easier.
REQUESTS
If you have problems sending messages to the list, questions about
technical details of the list distribution, or the like, send mail to
Vision-List-Request@ADS.COM and we will respond personally to your
query.
PLEASE DO NOT send your request to be added to/deleted from the list
to Vision-List@ADS.COM. If you do, it may be automatically
redistributed as an article and appear in thousands of mailboxes around
the world. Always send these requests to the -Request address.
SUBMISSIONS & RELEASE FORMAT
To submit an article to Vision-List, simply send it to:
Vision-List@ADS.COM
Submissions to the list are currently being delivered in a single
batch mailing about once a week and more often as needed. Caution:
the list moderator does not always edit the incoming messages before
they are redistributed. During those weeks, everything operates
automatically, with the attendant advantages and pitfalls. (If you
fall into one of those pits, please send me mail at
Vision-List-Request and we'll do our best to fix things up.)
The following details may help you in formatting and choosing
appropriate titles for your list submissions. Within a single release
of Vision-List, the format consists of an initial identifying header,
a list of topics covered in that release, and then each message
separated by dashed lines (please avoid the use of dashed lines
starting in column 1 in your submissions: they play havoc with most
autodigesters in the networld). Most of the header information is
automatically removed from each submission at release time. When the
software is working correctly, only "Date:", "From:", and "Subject:"
appear.
Archives & Services
-------------------
Backissues of the Vision List Digest and some public domain software
and imagery is available via anonymous FTP.
To access the Vision List archives from anonymous FTP:
1) FTP to FTP.ADS.COM (use 128.229.30.16 if this doesn't work)
2) Login name is 'anonymous' (all lower case)
3) Once you're logged on, change directory (cd) to
pub/VISION-LIST-ARCHIVE
* Backissues of the Vision List Digest may be found in
pub/VISION-LIST-ARCHIVE/BACKISSUES
* Azriel Rosenfeld's Computer Vision bibliographies from 1984-present
may be found in pub/VISION-LIST-ARCHIVE/ROSENFELD-BIBLIOGRAPHIES
* Public domain software (shareware) may be found in
pub/VISION-LIST-ARCHIVE/SHAREWARE
* Imagery may be found in pub/VISION-LIST-ARCHIVE/IMAGERY
** ** ** ** ** **
The list is intended to embrace discussion on a wide range of vision
topics, including physiological theory, computer vision, machine
vision and image processing algorithms, vision techniques to support
robot navigation and spatial representation, artificial intelligence
and neural network techniques applied to vision, industrial
applications, robotic eyes, implemented systems, ideas, profound
thoughts -- anything related to vision and its automation is fair
game.
For those wishing to contribute to the archives with shareware,
imagery, or other good stuff of general interest to the community,
please contact me at Vision-List-Request@ADS.COM .
I hope you enjoy Vision-List!
