Purpose of Workshop

The purpose of this workshop is to provide an international forum for discussion of video representation and coding techniques being developed for MPEG-4, MPEG-7 and MPEG-21 standards. Applications include videophone, teleconferencing, and telecollaboration, video streaming, video over IP and mobile networks, wireless, and Internet applications, interactive multimedia databases, remote sensing and surveillance and communications aids for the hearing impaired. To focus discussions, we have selected as the main theme of this workshop: Visual Content Analysis and Coding.

Topics of special interest include:

• Feature extraction
• Representation and coding
• 3D modeling and virtual reality
• Coding of topological data (meshes, boundaries, etc.)
• Content-based segmentation
• Face encoding & analysis, non verbal information processing
• Content classification and identification
• Content-based indexing and retrieval, video browsing and summarization
• Semantic analysis for audiovisual retrieval
• Image/video analysis for wireless/ IP networks

To facilitate the exchange of ideas and to maximize discussion, the workshop will consist of a number of invited panels. Contributed papers will be presented as posters
