Call for Papers
Special Issue on 'Multi-camera and Multi-modal Sensor Fusion'
**************************************************************************
- deadline: January 10, 2009
- submission: http://ees.elsevier.com/cviu/default.asp - Select 'Special
issue: Sensor Fusion'
**************************************************************************
Theme of the special issue
Advances in sensing technologies as well as the increasing availability of
computational power and efficient bandwidth usage methods are favouring
the emergence of applications based on distributed systems combining
multiple cameras and other sensing modalities. These applications include
audiovisual scene analysis, immersive human-computer interfaces, occupancy
sensing and event detection for smart environment applications, automated
collection, summarization and distribution of multi-sensor data, and
enriched personal communication, just to mention a few. This special issue
proposes to address the principal technical challenges in vision
processing when the video modality is also supported by other inputs such
as audio, speech, context, depth sensors, and/or other cameras. Topics of
interest to the special issue include:
- Multi-camera system algorithms and applications
- Multi-modal systems and data fusion methods
- Distributed sensing and processing methods for human-centric
applications
- Distributed multi-modal scene analysis and event interpretation
- Automated annotation and summarization of multi-view video
- Automated creation of audiovisual reports (from meetings, lectures,
sport events, etc.)
- Multi-modal gesture recognition
- Multi-modal human-computer interfaces
- Data processing and fusion in multi-modal embedded systems
- Context awareness and behaviour modelling
- Performance evaluation metrics
- Applications in distributed surveillance, smart rooms, virtual reality,
and e-health
