NECI VISION WORKSHOP

NEC Research Institute

Princeton, N.J.

  • Second NECI Vision Workshop June 3-14 1996

  • NECI VISION WORKSHOP 1

    FEB. 27 - MAR. 10, 1995

    Organizer: John Oliensis

    The NECI Vision Workshop brought together vision psychologists and computer vision researchers for a two week period to exchange ideas. The meeting was oriented toward discussion with a relaxed schedule of presentations. Foci of discussion included object recognition, recovery of structure and motion, subjective contours, perceptual inference, and low level vision.
