CALL FOR PARTICIPATION

Third IEEE International Workshop on Visual Surveillance (VS2000)
in conjuction with ECCV2000
July 1, 2000
Trinity College Dublin, Ireland

Visual Surveillance concerns the analysis and understanding of dynamic
scenes. It is a major application of computer vision and is of great
importance for security, law enforcement, military applications,
intelligent transportation systems, remote sensing, etc. Surveillance
cameras are installed all around us, for example along major roads, in
city centres, in shops, at airports and at railway and bus stations. By
analyzing information from such cameras it is possible to monitor,
understand and hence control activities in large, complex and spatially
distributed regions.

The first two visual surveillance workshops were successfully held at
ICCV'98 in Bombay and CVPR'99 in Fort Collins, Colorado, both under the
sponsorship of the IEEE Computer Society.

With the accepted papers having been carefully selected by a Program
Committee of leading researchers in the field, we are confident that
workshop participants will find the papers interesting and intriguing.
Registration information for the workshop may be found at

Please note that VS2000 is workshop no.3 on the registration form.

We look forward to meeting you at the Workshop in Dublin!

Steve Maybank and Tieniu Tan
VS2000 Co-Chairs
