From: iborra@disam.upm.es (Andres Iborra) Subject: Robotic camara systems and Canon lenses. Organitation: Politechnical University of Madrid Hello! We are working on the calibration of a robotic camara system. We have obtained relatively simple transformation equations to determine twelve camara parameters (pan, tilt, zoom, nodal separation, distorsion, etc.) by fitting them to several data points. The calibration must be performed each time the camara system is modi fied. For that reason, we are urgently looking for a table indicating the poti- tion of the nodal point and the distortion throughout the zoom range of the CANON TV zoom lenses: - PH 18x6 - J15x9.5 - PH 15x7 - J18x8.5 - PH 13x6.6 - J8x6 If there is a large request for this info we'll post it, etc ...

Flynn) Subject: 3D vision bibliography In the course of my PhD program I accumulated a rather large bibliography of papers on 3D vision. It recently occurred to me that I could make it available over the network so that others wouldn't have to reinvent the wheel. It's in BibTeX format with my own `unique' indexing system, and I don't think it's worth repackaging as a special issue of vision-list. Regards Pat Flynn @string{comment=" Hello. This is the bibliography of 3D vision papers that I accumulated since 1986. It's in BibTeX format, and the index phrase for each entry looks something like NAME-1stword-2ndword-WHERE-WHEN where NAME is the last name of the principal author, 1stword and 2ndword are the first and second words in the title of the item, WHERE is a label for the publication (e.g. `book', `iccv88', `cvpr88'), and WHEN is the last 2 digits of the year of publication. This makes citations in the LaTeX documents kinda long, but easy to read. This list of references is long and eclectic. I will probably continue to update it, and make newer versions available in the future.

Mancini) Subject: Re: Shape from Shading Ikeuchi and Horn make several simplifying assumptions in their original shape from shading algorithm. I am more interested in processing real images, so I have begun my work using ray-traced images. These images have several properties which are not handled well by the original algorithm, such as perspective projection, non-centered objects, and Lambertian models which diminish source intensity as distance increases. My intial models are quadrics (and super-quadrics). Simpler methods of enforcing continuity in the smoothness over the surface given the occlduing boundary work better and faster than Ikeuchi and Horn's method which also seeks out to use intensity information. There are other problems to be dealt with; one involves an over-simplification corresponding surface orientations to expected intensity values given a Lambertian model. In effect, the algorithm presented in the paper treats all objects as spheres (or ellipsoids) of unit size. It is possible to create quadrics which will not render correctly given their simple definition of a reflectance map. I am seeking an algorithm which is more concerned with observed intensity values in the bit-mapped image to find the orientation map. Ideally, such an algorithm would not require the orientation at the occulding boundary to be input, but by means of a system similar to edge detection would quickly determine the occluding boundary and work off of that. I have already started to show that for a large set of smooth surfaces, it is enough to determine the occluding boundary to find the entire surface orientation with a very high degree of accuracy; information from the intensity map over the surface will be mainly used to resolve local perturbations from the smoothness (even in light of image noise.) -Todd ------------------------------ Date: 13 Nov 90 22:56:52 GMT From: leadsv!laic!stiles@decwrl.dec.com (Randy Stiles) Subject: Motion Detection Using Neural Nets Keywords: neural networks, motion detection, neuroethology, machine vision, connectionism Organization: Lockheed AI Center, Menlo Park Fellow netters, Does anyone out there have more info on this development reported last week by the Wall Street Journal, concerning visual object recognition using color to recognize objects and motion detection based on the dragonfly's visual system? The paper reports Michael Swain at U. Chicago and Randal Nelson at U. Rochester, respectively, as the researchers on these systems. I would be especially keen to receive information from them about these developments. Please send any info directly to my email address stiles@laic.lockheed.com.

See also Nelson & Aloimonos, PAMI, Oct. 1989; also University of Rochester TRs. phil... ] Wall Street Journal Friday, November 9, 1990: Scientists are teaching robots and computers to see in living colors and to identify moving objects while in motion themselves. In research funded partly by the Pentagon's Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency (DARPA), scientists at the University of Rochester and the University of Chicago report successfully programming robots to recognize multicolored objects solely by their colors. That's a departure from the traditional approach, in which objects are recognized by their shape, and from machine vision experiments, in which robots "see" only single or dominant colors in a pattern. The Rochester robot, for example, was capable of picking out a box of Kellogg's Frosted Flakes from among 70 similiarly colored objects. And while most robots today must remain still to detect movement, another robot in Rochester was programmed to pick out moving objects while on the go itself. the robot was programmed to identify objects that aren't moving in synch with the movement of its own visual field. Randal Nelson, an assistant progessor of computer science at Rochester, says the software was inspired by the dragonfly, which is though to stalk its prey by identifying small objects whose movement doesn't coincide with that of the rest of the its visual field as it buzzes around. Michael Swain, a University of Chicago researcher, says he has received inquireies from companies that view the color vision research as potentially useful in commercial applications such as supermarket checkout systems. "You can't bar-code a squash," he says, but the computer might one day be programmed to recognize one. Mr. Nelson sees his motion-detection research in future surveillance systems. ------------------------------ Date: Tue, 13 Nov 90 14:10:13 GMT From: cs_s424@ux.kingston.ac.uk Subject: Making personal bibliographies public Organisation: Kingston Polytechnic Hello I would like to thank Patrick Flynn for sending his personal bibliography in to the list.

Flynn) Subject: PD Range Image Archive Back in February, I made 44 range images available for anonymous ftp from my workstation at Michigan State University, and said: >> I will try to keep these images available [...] >> until I leave MSU this summer. >> If my next job has machines with internet access and some disk space, >> I'll put them there. The archive has been expanded (over 200 images, including 100 synthetic images generated from CAD models) and moved from Michigan State to my Sun here at Notre Dame. The machine name and IP address is: shillelagh.cse.nd.edu (129.74.9.7) The images are in the pub/range-images directory. The README file from that directory appears below. Please remember to use binary mode when transferring files, and perform ftp transfers AFTER `normal' business hours (i.e. do it between 1700 EST and 0800 EST). I reserve the right to disable ftp activity during the day if it significantly impacts my ability to use shillelagh for my work. Direct *specific* questions about the images to me (flynn@cse.nd.edu). General questions about range sensing are best answered by reading the surveys by Jarvis (PAMI '83), Nitzan (PAMI '88), or Besl (in the `Advances in Machine Vision' book by J. Sanz, pub. by Springer, or in the `Machine Vision and Applications' journal, volume 1). A European version of the archive is in the works (courtesy of Adrian Clark). I will post details to vision-list when we get it set up. Here is the text of the README file in the pub/range-images directory. This directory contains a bunch of range images produced by - the MSU Pattern Recognition and Image Processing Lab's Technical Arts 100X scanner (aka `White scanner'), OR - scan-conversion software that I adapted from a program originally written by Paul Besl many years ago. You are free to use these images to test your algorithms. If the images are to appear in a published article, please acknowledge the MSU PRIP Lab as the source of the images (you don't have to mention my name, though). File format: rather than deal with all the goofy standards out there for images (and to preserve the floating-point representation), these images are compressed ASCII text files. Beware: they expand by about 10x when uncompressed. I recommend that you keep them compressed to save disk space. Many of you will probably convert these files to your own `local' image format anyway. Each image file has a three-line header giving the number of rows and columns. This is followed by four images. The first is the so-called 'flag' image, where a pixel value of 1 means the corresponding (x,y,z) values at that pixel are valid. If the flag value is zero, you should ignore the (x,y,z) components for that pixel. Following the flag image is the image of X-coordinates, the image of Y-coordinates, and the image of Z-coordinates. All are floating-point images. MSU's White scanner is configured so that each stripe of range values occupies one column in the image. The object is swept under the stripe with an XY table to get an image. So the X coordinate image is a linear ramp; the X value is taken from the absolute position of the X stage in the XY table. The Y value depends on the column number of the pixel, and the Z value is the measured range (the height above a table). You can use the 3D coordinates of each range pixel, or you can throw away the X and Y images, and concern yourself with the Z-value alone. Note that the `aspect ratio' of the image doesn't have to be 1, although I try to keep it in the neighborhood of 1. Remember to use binary mode when you transfer the images. Contents: In this directory, there are 4 subdirectories: NAME SIZE CONTENTS cluttered 1302KB 10 White Scanner images of pairs of objects isolated 9270KB 100 White Scanner images; 5 images of each of 20 objects misc 6008KB 47 `miscellaneous' images of various objects The files labeled `foot1' and `foot2' are images of a human foot (belonging to Dr. Rick Hallgren). Most of the others are blocky, industrial-ish parts. synth 22027KB 100 synthetic images; 5 images of each of 20 objects (the same 20 objects as in the `isolated' directory). ------------------------------ Date: Mon, 19 Nov 90 11:11:54 GMT From: Massimo Tistarelli <tista@dist.dist.unige.it> Subject: RE: Optical Flow in Realtime I have developed a system for the computation of the optical flow in real-time using the Connection Machine. It is capable of computing a dense optic flow from image sequences at near real time, allowing the computation of one velocity field at a rate of 20 frames per second. The program is Public Domain, I can send it directly to you or you can ask Thinking Machines Co. in Cambridge (MA), together with related documentation. Also the time-to-impact can be computed at almost no "extra cost" in terms of processing time. As the algorithm is devised, it will be possible to realize an implementation of the system on other parallel machines. I' m currently working on it!

Applications for Fall, 1991 admissions and financial aid are now being accepted for both the MA and PhD degree programs. To obtain a brochure describing the CNS Program and a set of application materials, write or telephone: Cognitive & Neural Systems Program Boston University 111 Cummington Street, Room 240 Boston, MA 02215 (617) 353-9481 or send a mailing address to: caroly@park.bu.edu Applications for admission and financial aid should be received by the Graduate School Admissions Office no later than January 15. Applicants are required to submit undergraduate (and, if applicable, graduate) transcripts, three letters of recommendation, and Graduate Record Examination (GRE) scores. The Advanced Test should be in the candidate's area of departmental specialization. GRE scores may be waived for MA candidates and, in exceptional cases, for PhD candidates, but absence of these scores may decrease an applicant's chances for admission and financial aid. Description of the CNS Program: The Cognitive and Neural Systems (CNS) Program provides advanced training and research experience for graduate students interested in the neural and computational principles, mechanisms, and architectures that underly human and animal behavior, and the application of neural network architectures to the solution of outstanding technological problems. Students are trained in a broad range of areas concerning cognitive and neural systems, including vision and image processing; speech and language understanding; adaptive pattern recognition; associative learning and long-term memory; cognitive information processing; self-organization; cooperative and competitive network dynamics and short-term memory; reinforcement, motivation, and attention; adaptive sensory-motor control and robotics; and biological rhythms; as well as the mathematical and computational methods needed to support advanced modeling research and applications. The CNS Program awards MA, PhD, and BA/MA degrees. The CNS Program embodies a number of unique features. Its core curriculum consists of eight interdisciplinary graduate courses each of which integrates the psychological, neurobiological, mathematical, and computational information needed to theoretically investigate fundamental issues concerning mind and brain processes and the applications of neural networks to technology. Each course is taught once a week in the evening to make the program available to qualified students, including working professionals, throughout the Boston area. Students develop a coherent area of expertise by designing a program that includes courses in areas such as Biology, Computer Science, Engineering, Mathematics, and Psychology, in addition to courses in the CNS core curriculum. The CNS Program prepares Ph.D. students for thesis research with scientists in one of several Boston University research centers or groups, and with Boston-area scientists collaborating with these centers. The unit most closely linked to the Program is the Center for Adaptive Systems. The Center for Adaptive Systems is also part of the Boston Consortium for Behavioral and Neural Studies, a Boston-area multi-institutional Congressional Center of Excellence. Another multi-institutional Congressional Center of Excellence focussed at Boston University is the Center for the Study of Rhythmic Processes. Other research resources include distinguished research groups in dynamical systems within the mathematics department; in theoretical computer science within the Computer Science Department; in biophysics and computational physics within the Physics Department; in sensory robotics, biomedical engineering, computer and systems engineering, and neuromuscular research within the Engineering School; and in neurophysiology, neuroanatomy, and neuropharmacology at the Medical School. ------------------------------ Date: Wed, 28 Nov 90 10:50:28 EST From: finin@PRC.Unisys.COM Subject: 7th IEEE Conference on AI Applications - Program available A copy of the advanced program of the the Seventh IEEE Conference on Artificial Intelligence Applications (CAIA-91) is now available and can be obtained by sending email to the mail agent CAIA-PROGRAM@PRC.UNISYS.COM.

We have the hardware to grab single frames of video and digitize them in raster form, but what we really need is an inexpensive, yet accurate rangefinder (RADAR) to indicate our position above the lanscape. This device should be accurate to within 10 meters and cost no more than $10,000. It should also be capable of producing a digital output (I'd settle for analog) that can be inputted to an IBM PC compatible computer.

Relevant ideas from mathematics will also be discussed. In general, a minimum of graduate level training is assumed of participants. The meetings are free and open to all interested persons. Next Meeting Announcement BRAIN AND CONSCIOUSNESS SPEAKER:John R Smythies, M.D., Institute of Neurology, Univ. of London; Distinguished Emeritus Prof., Univ. of Alabama Medical Center and Visiting Scholar, Dept. of Philosophy, Stanford Univ. DATE: December 14, 1990 (Friday) PLACE: Room N721, School of Nursing, U.C. San Francisco TIME: 7:30 P.M FORMAT: 7:30-8:00 Social; 8:00-9:00 Talk; 9:00-10:00 Discussion This presentation will concentrate on a new theory of the relationship between phenomenological consciousness and the brain. If consciousness is taken as the collection of sensations, images and thoughts, this taken with the Representative Theory of Perceptions, indicates that Descartes was wrong in selecting the criterion of extension in space as differentiating the physical from the mental. So far from being a thinking spirit, consciousness (mind) is a spatial entity. Therefore our understanding of the mind/brain problem may be advanced by an investigation of the geometrical relationships between the phenomenological space of consciousness and physical space.Registration: If you are attending for the first time, please pre-register by calling Kainila Rajan Ph.D. at (415) 753-8647/8648, or Jean Burns, Ph.D. at (415) 481-7507.

Watson Research Ctr., Yorktown Heights NY. Key Note Address: Dr. David Mumford (A world renowned Mathematician) Dept. of Mathematics and Applied Sciences,Harvard University The theme of this conference is application of geometric methods in low-level vision tasks, specifically for shape and motion estimation. Over the past few years, there has been increased interest in the use of differential geometry and geometric probability methods for various low-level vision problems. Papers describing novel contributions in all aspects of geometric and probabilistic methods in low-level vision are solicited, with particular emphasis on: Differential Geometric Methods for Shape Representation Probability and Geometry (Geometric Probability) Energy-based Methods for Shape Estimation Geometry and Motion Estimation DEADLINES Abstract Due Date: 24th Dec. 1990 Manuscript Due Date: 24 June 1991 Author applications can be obtained from SPIE directly (If you are SPIE member, you should have received one already) by calling them or Faxing a request to the below given numbers.

The main objective of the Conference is to pro- vide a forum to present and discuss recent research advances in the field of Computer Vision. The first ECCV Conference was held in Antibes (France) in April 1990 and was stimulated by the perception that the com- munity of researchers working on computer vision in Europe has grown considerably in the last few years. The ESPRIT initia- tive and the increasing number of research projects carried out jointly by scientists from different European Countries, has helped the creation of a "network" of research centers active in this field. The Conference is open to international participation (in ECCV-90 one third of the published papers came from outside Europe) and all the papers will be evaluated by the Programme Committee on scientific grounds. Topics of interest are: Colour, Texture, Stereo, Motion, Image Features, Stereo Motion Cooperation, Active Vision, Shape, Vision based Control, Hardware Architectures, Applica- tions. STRUCTURE OF THE CONFERENCE The programme will be articulated in three parts: (1) A four day, single track Conference (2) an "ESPRIT day" devoted to the presentation of ESPRIT projects in the field of computer vision (this day will be opened to non-European participants). (3) Workshops on Esprit Basic Research Action on Machine Vision. PAPERS Authors will be asked to present unpublished, original papers either as LONG PAPERS (appoximately 20 double spaced pages) or as SHORT PAPERS (approximately 7 double spaced pages). A poster session will also be organized.

PROCEEDINGS The proceedings of ECCV-90 were published by Springer-Verlag in the "Lecture Notes in Computer Science" series and it is intended to make a similar arrangement for ECCV-92. The proceedings will be distributed to participants at the begin- nig of the Conference. In addition, a selection of the best papers from ECCV-90 will shortly be published in a Special Issue of Image and Vision Computing. Again, it is intended to make similar arrangements for ECCV-92. VIDEO PROCEEDINGS In addition to the publication of the "paper proceedings" a collection of videos will be produced showing the dynamic results presented. The selection of the videos will be coordi- nated by Giovanni Garibotto of ELSAG S.p.A. RELATED EVENTS Scientific Events: In the week preceding ECCV-92 the IEEE Conference on Robotics and Automation will be held in Nice (France). Santa Margherita Ligure is conveniently connected through local transportation (train or car) for those who whish to attend both events. 1992 Celebration of the Discovery of America: The year 1992 will be a special year for the city of Genoa. The city will host a number of cultural and entertainement events in honour of the 500th anniversary of the discovery of America by the Genoese explorer Cristoforo Colombo. Among these events a world exhibition and a new acquarium will be opened to the public. VENUE OF THE CONFERENCE The conference will be held in Santa Margherita Ligure at the Hotel Miramare. Santa Margherita Ligure is a small town in the Italian Riviera close to the city of Genova. The Hotel Miramare is located on the sea facing the Portofino Gulf a few kilometers from the village of Portofino. Also close to the conference site is the pleasant resort area of "Cinque Terre" whose picturesque villages on the rocky coast can be reached by train only. The Conference site can be reached by car or by train from the major cities of the northern and central Italy. The closest international airports are Genova, Pisa, Milan and Rome.
