CVPR 2001 will be held in the beautiful Kauai island of Hawaii in December 2001.  This is a departure from the typical June schedule to accommodate the tradition of not holding a CVPR when either ICCV (Vancouver, July 2001) or ICPR (Quebec City, August 2002) are held in North America. In addition to the traditional presentations, in an effort to broaden the interest in CVPR and to expand the level of participation, CVPR 2001 will include many enhancements described below.

Technical Sketches

This is a new venue featuring presentations that do not fit the traditional CVPR mold. The range of work suitable for the technical sketches format is broad, from revolutionary but unproven ideas to system oriented papers describing solutions to pragmatic machine vision problems. Sketches sessions will allow the CVPR community to share knowledge born of research and real world implementations, as well as to examine, question, and augment new ideas. Preliminary, unproven, and/or controversial results and works-in-progress are encouraged if they are sufficiently compelling or have the potential to expose the CVPR audience to provocative innovations and methodologies. Sketches papers will be subject to a separate submission and review process, and will be published in a separate CD-ROM proceedings. For details click here.

Short Courses

As a substitute for tutorials, we will be offering courses suitable for industrial and/or academic participants.  For more information click here.

Workshops

Several workshops are planned.  The format of the workshop includes ample time for interaction among participants to facilitate exchange of ideas. For details on the individual workshops click here.

Demonstrations

We propose to strengthen the demonstrations component of CVPR. The demos attracted much attention from participants in recent CVPRs. We especially encourage increased industrial participation. Please contact the Demos Chair, Kyros Kutulakos , with your ideas and suggestions.  For details click here.

Please send your comments or suggestions to one of the General Chairs, Gerard Medioni or Rangachar Kasturi, or the Innovations Chair, Aaron Bobick. For any other questions, please contact Conference Secretary, Helen DeFurio.
