Scope of the Workshop

During the last 30 years, face recognition and related problems such as face detection/tracking, facial expression recognition have attracted researchers from both the engineering and psychology communities.  In addition, extensive research has been carried out to study hand and body gestures. The understanding of how humans perceive these important cues has significant scientific value and extensive applications. For example, human-computer interaction, visual surveillance, smart video indexing are active application areas. Aiming towards putting such amazing perception capability onto computer systems, researchers have made substantial progress. However, technological challenges still exist in many aspects.

Following a format similar to AMFG 2003, this one-day workshop (AMFG'05) will provide a focused international forum to bring together well-known researchers and research groups to review the status of recognition, analysis and modeling of face & gesture, to discuss the challenges that we are facing, and to explore future directions. The workshop will consist of two to three invited talks contributed by experts from the relevant communities. Original high-quality papers are solicited on topics including, but not limited to,

    1. Advanced methods, including mathematical tools, novel sensors and algorithms for face & gesture modeling, analysis and recognition.
    2. Novel applications in which detection, tracking and recognition of face and gesture can be reliably accomplished.
    3. Efficient computational methods to implement advanced algorithms for real-time systems.
    4. Psychology studies that can help us build better systems.
    5. Motion analysis, tracking and extraction of 3D face structure from image sequences using single or multiple cameras
    6. Detection and recognition of face objects under large 3D rotations, illumination changes, partial occlusions, aging, etc.
    7. Face/Gait detection and recognition in low-quality, low-resolution surveillance video.
    8. Demonstration of face recognition in outdoor environments.
    9. Dynamics and learning for gesture interpretation.
    10. Fusion of multi-modalities such as face and gesture.
