Call for Participation

Second International Conference on Automatic Face and Gesture Recognition

October 13-16
Killington , Vermont
USA


Purpose

Automatic face and gesture recognition has rapidly developed into a highly active field of research with application potential in areas such as contactless man-machine interaction, access control, automatic search in visual databases, and very-low bit-rate compression. Consequently, this international conference series has been created to provide an international forum for research on image- and video-based face recognition, facial expression recognition, and hand gesture and body movement analysis.

Contributions

Contributions are invited in analysis by synthesis techniques, acquisition of articulated shape models, deformable models, illumination invariant segmentation and recognition, analysis of face, gesture and gait movements, model-based methods for shape and motion estimation, feature identification, physics-based modelling, contactless man-machine interfaces and interaction with virtual worlds, very-low bit-rate encoding, face and person identification for access control and other applications, as well as other related topics.
