                 9th Fall Workshop

    VISION, MODELING, AND VISUALIZATION 2004 (VMV2004)

                November 16-18, 2004
            Stanford (California), USA

                Stanford University
                  MPI Informatik
Max Planck Center for Visual Computing and Communication

                in cooperation with:

            DFG Center of Excellence SFB 603
"Model-based Analysis and Visualization of Complex Scenes and Sensor Data "
            DFG Graduate Research Center GRK 244
             "3-D Image Analysis and Synthesis"


The program will consist of invited talks by internationally renowned
speakers, as well as poster presentations of contributed papers. To
preserve a workshop atmosphere, attendance might be limited, with
preference given to active participants.

The meeting will be held at Stanford University, Stanford, CA,
within close proximity to San Francisco and Silicon Valley.

Original papers are solicited which report about current research
in the areas of 3-D image analysis and 3-D image synthesis, and
their convergence. Topics include, but are not limited to:

Topics:

- 3-D imaging
- Object localization and recognition
- Volume data processing and visualization
- Multi-sensor fusion and 3-D registration
- 3-D structure from motion and stereo
- 3-D video processing
- Geometry-based and image-based rendering
- Geometric modeling
- Scene modeling and integration
- Realistic rendering
- Animation
- Multi-view image processing and coding
- Virtual Reality
- Applications (medicine, robotics, fluid mechanics, manufacturing,
                automated inspection, communication, etc.)


Paper Submission:

 Prospective attendees are invited to submit a paper up to 8 pages
 in final form.  All submissions will be reviewed. Accepted papers will
 be published in the workshop proceedings. Authors should obtain the
 author's kit (including LaTeX style-file) from

               http://www.mpi-sb.mpg.de/conferences/vmv04/

It is the intention of the committee to conduct all communication with
authors electronically.
Questions should be directed to: vmv04@mpi-sb.mpg.de

Authors' Schedule:

 Well ahead of deadline: Obtain author's kit and LaTeX style-file
