CALL FOR PARTICIPATION: INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE
ON IMAGE AND VIDEO RETRIEVAL (CIVR) 2002
July 18th-19th 2002
Brunei Gallery, Bloomsbury, London, UK.
http://www.civr.org
WHY ATTEND?
CIVR is one of the leading forums for image and video retrieval. The
conference programme contains papers on a wide variety of topics
including user modelling, shape matching, evaluation, clustering,
compressed retrieval, summarization and many more. The programme
covers a diverse range of application areas from pornography to
basketball and from funeral monuments to robotics! A feature of this
conference is the mixture of researchers and practitioners which makes
CIVR a unique melting-pot of ideas and collaborations.
The conference programme contains thirty-nine papers from
international experts that represent the state-of-the-art in image and
video retrieval. These are augmented with panel discussions, keynote
talks, reviews and exhibitors.
The conference takes place in Bloomsbury in the centre of London,
one of the world's most vibrant capital cities, and is scheduled for
Thursday and Friday to allow you to maximize the effectiveness of
your visit.
WHO SHOULD ATTEND?
Previous conferences have attracted computer scientists, strategists,
librarians, museum informatics specialists, archivists, digital library
researchers, government information providers, publishers, and
content specialists from a broad cross-section of sectors and
disciplines. Over the previous two conferences (CIR 99 and CIR
2000) roughly 53% of the delegates have come from University and
47% from industry or government.
