CVPR 2011 Workshop

 

We have called for participation in the first symmetry detection competition from all researchers worldwide, especially students. Three types of symmetries are targeted in real images: reflection, translation and rotation. The top winners of Round Two competition have received travel funds from US NSF and presented their algorithms, results and analysis at the Symmetry Detection from Real World Image workshop at CVPR 2011, Colorado Springs, CO, held in June 2011.


A CVPR 2011 workshop on 'Symmetry Detection from Real World Images'.
