About the Conference

ACCV2000 is a continuation of the previous three Asian Conferences on Computer Vision, which were ACCV'93 in Osaka, ACCV'95 in Singapore, and ACCV'98 in Hong Kong. The theme of ACCV2000 is "Computer Vision in the New Century." The conference will provide a forum for researchers to exchange up-to-date technical knowledge and experience. In addition to the technical sessions, there will be plenary, invited and tutorial sessions. Four best papers (two best oral papers and two best poster paper presentations) will be selected from the submissions. Topics of interest include, but are not limited to, the following:

Active and Real-Time Vision	Low-Level Processing
2D & 3D Scene Analysis	Stereo and Motion Analysis
Document Processing	Integration of Modules and Cues
Character Recognition	Object Recognition
Biomedical Image Analysis	Physics-Basd Vision
Image Analysis for Multimedia	Industrial Visual Inspection
Feature Extraction	Image Segmentation
Texture Analysis	Applications
