Computer Vision Information Pages

I received a suggestion about RSS feeds of bibliography updates. As long as the change could be automated, I decided it might work. So, I now have a set of RSS feeds for recently added papers, divided by the same sections used in the contents page.

The Facebook application for Conferences (e.g. CVPR) is working as expected with over 140 different users a month and over 400 total. You get a Facebook notification on changes or approaching deadlines for the conferences you express an interest in, and can see who else is interested (at least those who allow public viewing of their name). Since the Facebook programming experiment went fairly well (but Facebook is constantly changing), I decided to explore Word Press and so there is now another useless addition -- my blog. It will mostly have comments and news on additions and changes to the Bibliography and Conference pages, but will include other things I find of interest.

The annotated Computer Vision Bibliography

with indexes for Author, Journal/Conference, Keyword, Words in title, and Authors by year was last modified on Thursday, July 2, 2009, 10:20 pm. This bibliography, which has been an internet resource since 1994, provides access to information on 102,000+ scientific papers in the field of computer vision, image processing, character recognition and other related topics. (See the totals of authors, titles, and other references.) This is the official mirror site for the original USC Iris Vision Bibliography, and contains some enhancements. Several subsets of useful information have been extracted into separate web sites. These are mentioned below.

If you know what you are looking for, you can try the "Jump directly to the index" option for Authors, words in title (KWIC), and Journals.

The top level bibliography page has pointers for finding papers by author (including author arranged by year to reduce your effort in creating annual reports), conference or journal names, keywords, and a KWIC index. The historical Rosenfeld Bibliography data is also available, but it is incomplete (i.e. it ends in 1998) and is the result of an automatic translation so there are errors.

General Resource Listing for Computer Vision

A more complete description of the following items can be found in the Extended Computer Vision Resources Listing, which provides more information on these various resource lists.

Research Groups in Computer Vision

If you want to find pointers to a particular research group, I have these arranged somewhat geographically. Some companies are categorized as vendors rather than research groups.

Vendors, Code and Datasets for Computer Vision Related Products

The Complete Conference Listing for Computer Vision and Image Analysis

lists current events with information on future meetings, dates for paper submission, locations, websites, and also contains archives of this information on past meetings. Conference deadlines for about the next 3 months are also available.

In Association with Amazon:

You may also search this site -- either the conferences or the bibliography:
Give keywords, Authors,
Journals, etc.

Other Things of Interest

Stonehenge Stereo Left Stonehenge Stereo Right

Stereo, Human and Computer

Stereo, the use of 2 or more images to provide three-dimensional information or displays, has a long history. Stereo for sound (music) came much later. I have assembled some stereo pairs, which can be viewed on the screen. Most of these are scenery, but there are some with buildings.

Yosemite National Park

Yosemite

Why Yosemite? It is a place I enjoy. I have included some pictures and pointers to the usual places, and some not so usual. Enjoy. And the picture at the top, it is correct. This is not the usual view of Half Dome from the Valley or Glacier Point, it is the view from Clouds Rest so the half part of the dome is on the "wrong" side.

Sequoia National Park

Sequoia-Kings Canyon

Sequoia and Kings Canyon are not quite Yosemite, but together they have more to offer than just the trees (remember, they are sequoias, not redwoods). I have included some pictures and pointers to the usual places. Enjoy.

Grand Canyon Kaibab Trail

Grand Canyon

A lot of places claim to be the Grand Canyon of something-or-the-other, but there is only one Grand Canyon. Grand Canyon is timeless, yet provides a record of time; changeless, yet is different by the hour. Other canyons may be longer, deeper, wider, steeper, but none have all the qualities that make this canyon Grand.

Los Angeles

A really interesing site about Architecture in Los Angeles, from someone who spends vacations here. (The LA Times story of April 11, 2007 says it best.)

Are the billboards in Los Angeles getting you down? Last spring Christine Pelisek wrote an article in LA Weekly: Billboards Gone Wild: 4,000 Illegal Billboards Choke L.A.'s Neighborhoods which included 4 listings of billboards for 3 of the major companies in LA. These are available for browsing at my LA Billboard Information Site (including maps showing locations) and adding new information. This resource should help understand how widespread the problem has become. Please add information on other locations and provide some of the missing information on those that are included.

For comments you can try: The general Comments Form But email usually works best, though I may be away from email for a week at a time.

A lot of this has been derived from my work with the Computer vision group at USC.
