Title: Some Statistical Contributions to Image Analysis and fMRI
Abstract: The first half of the talk will survey the role of
stochastic models in image analysis over the last 15 years.
The second part will cover recent work on the analysis of
functional MRI data, covering image processing, visualization
and inference.
Speaker: Josef Kittler (University of Surrey)

Title: Information Fusion in Image Interpretation
Abstract: Conventionally image interpretation involves
extracting a suitable representation of the image content
and devising a suitable decision making scheme (expert)
which uses the representation to interpret the content in
terms of a predefined vocabulary. Recently considerable
interest has been generated by the benefits that appear to
be offered by the use of multiple experts to make decisions.
In the talk, multiple expert fusion approaches will be
discussed and their potential role in image interpretation
illustrated on examples in character recognition, personal
identity verification and mammographic image analysis.
