Vienna, Austria
PhD Forum
The PhD Forum will be held on September 25, 2007 in the form of a
poster session including a short oral presentation of the poster in
an extended abstract, and a panel discussion with experts on the potential
research and application development topics. PhD students can present
and discuss their
work with researchers in the field and receive valuable feedback,
while conference participants can learn about interesting academic
work in progress. The forum also includes a panel discussion in which
participants can hear from experts in the related fields about the
upcoming research and application development opportunities.
Participation in the forum is competitive and selection will be
made based on a submitted abstract. All submitted abstracts will
undergo a review process and selected based on the quality of the
submitted content. Accepted students have to prepare a poster and
register for the "PhD Forum" at the conference. Registration cost
for the PhD forum will be 70 Euros and includes free attendance at
the tutorials.
Presenting at the forum is open to PhD students within the
following research topics:
- Smart camera architectures
- Image sensing techniques for smart cameras
- Embedded vision programming
- Fusion of vision and other sensors
- Distributed vision processing algorithms
