ECCV Workshop on Biological and Computer Vision Interfaces
October 12, Florence, Italy
A one-day event with prestigious invited speakers
From the simplest vision architectures in insects to the extremely
complex cortical hierarchy in primates, it is fascinating to observe how
biology found efficient solutions to solve vision problems. Pioneers in
computer vision dreamt of building machines that could match and
perhaps outperform human vision. Although this goal has not been reached
on the scale originally foreseen, the field of computer vision has
overcome many other challenges from an unexpected variety of
applications and fostered entirely new scientific and technological
areas such as computer graphics and medical image analysis. In spite of
great progress, there remain many open challenges in both biological and
computer vision. …
