[visionlist] ICPR 2010 - Call for Contests (deadline approaching)

[Devrim Unay]

The ICPR-2010 Contest Chairs invite contest proposals for the 
International Conference on Pattern Recognition 2010 (www.icpr2010.org).

The ICPR-2010 contests will provide a setting where participants will 
have the opportunity to evaluate their algorithms using publicly 
available datasets and standard performance assessment methodologies, 
publish their results in the proceedings of an internationally acclaimed 
conference, and discuss technical topics in an atmosphere that fosters 
active exchange of ideas. Members from all segments of the pattern 
recognition community are invited to submit contest proposals for review.
 
Each proposal will be assessed for its scientific content, proposed 
structure and overall relevance. Contest organizers will be responsible 
for the infrastructure of the contest (including provision of data and 
evaluation of results), inviting participants and ensuring their 
participation, and preparing an overview paper of the results. 
Furthermore, individual results of the contests can be presented at 
separate workshops at ICPR-2010 provided that these workshops do not 
divert papers from the main conference.
