VILSS: Human Action Recognition and Detection from Noisy 3D Skeleton Data
Mohamed Hussein, Egypt-Japan University of Science and Technology Human action recognition and human action detection are two closely related problems. In human action recogniton, the purpose is to determine the class of an action performed by a human subject from spatio-temporal measurements of the subject, which are cropped in the time dimension to include only the […]
BVI Seminar: The effectiveness of camouflage; predator learning and new modelling approaches
Seminar Room, Life Sciences Building Tyndall Avenue, BristolJolyon Troscianko, Exeter University Abstract: Evading detection is crucial for the survival of many animals, and number of different means of achieving camouflage have been discovered. I will discuss my […]
BVI Seminar: Marked Point Processes for Object Detection and Tracking in High Resolution Images: Applications to Remote Sensing and Biology
Josiane Zerubia, INRIA, France Abstract: In this talk, we combine the methods from probability theory and stochastic geometry to put forward new solutions to the multiple object detection and tracking problem […]
BVI SEMINAR:New technologies for improving the representation of human vision
Seminar Room, Life Sciences Building Tyndall Avenue, BristolRobert Pepperell, Cardiff Metropolitan University Abstract: What is the best way to represent the three-dimensional world we see on a two-dimensional surface? For several hundred years there was basically one […]
BVI Seminar: Exogenous visual attention and the primary visual cortex
Seminar Room, Life Sciences Building Tyndall Avenue, BristolZhaoping Li, University College London I will present a theory that primary visual cortex creates a saliency map to guide attention exogenously, and show how this explains and predicts experimental […]
BVI Seminar: Psychophysical probes into spatial vision: you ain’t seen nothin’ yet.
Seminar Room, Life Sciences Building Tyndall Avenue, BristolTim Meese, School of Life and Health Sciences, Aston University. Everyone knows what cosmologists do: they gaze out into the sky to see the secrets of what’s out there, matching observations […]
BVI Seminar: Visual concealment as foreign policy: camouflage as signaling friends and foes.
Seminar Room, Life Sciences Building Tyndall Avenue, BristolLászló Tálas, Camo Lab, University of Bristol Abstract: Why do armies operating in the same environment (e.g. temperate woodland) wear markedly different dress? The primary function of military camouflage is generally understood to be concealment, however the vast diversity of camouflage patterns (over 600 patterns in the past century) suggests additional design factors. One hypothesis is […]
