IEEE Workshop on Combined Research-Curriculum
Development in Computer Vision
December 10, 2001
Kauai Marriot Hotel
Kauai, Hawaii
(in conjcunction with CVPR01)
http://www.cs.unr.edu/CRCDWorkshop01
SCOPE
This workshop follows in the successful tradition of the workshops
held in conjunction with CVPR'97 and CVPR '00, however, the emphasis
has been shifted to identifying systematic ways to integrate computer
vision research into to the computer science and engineering
curriculum. The goal is to offer systematic and constant computer
vision research experiences for as many students as possible (both
undergraduate and graduate). Traditional student research
participation programs in computer vision (e.g., joining research
teams, doing summer research, taking advanced courses etc.) have
demonstrated considerable success in exposing students to current
computer vision research paradigms. However, it is becoming more and
more evident that comprehensive instructional programs, which offer
systematic and constant computer vision research experiences to
students, will be more effective in involving a larger body of
students in research and retaining their interest and enthusiasm in
computer vision. We are seeking for innovative ideas that propose
integration of computer vision research results into the curriculum
through systematic and constant activities starting maybe at the
sophomore year and continuing until graduation, making research an
integral part of students' education.
TOPICS
Possible topics for presentation and discussion at the workshop
include, but are not limited to:
* injecting computer vision research "modules" into core courses
(emphasizing the process of scientific inquiry)
* computer vision courses that have some unique approach
* computer vision courses addressing industry requirements
* computer vision courses for non-CS/EE majors
* courses on mathematical methods for computer vision
* effective models for summer computer vision student research
experiences
* ``don't do this'' case studies - examples of appealing ideas that did
not work
* approaches to successfully disseminate examples of integrating
computer vision research
* results into the curriculum (e.g., research modules used by other
faculty etc.)
* approaches to successfully evaluate the integration of computer
vision research into the curriculum
PAPER SUBMISSION
Three copies of papers should be received no later than July 20th,
2001 at the address shown below:
Dr. George Bebis,
Department of Computer Science
University of Nevada,
Reno, NV 89557
Phone:(775) 784-6463,

Electronic submissions in postscript or pdf are also acceptable.
Papers will be reviewed with an emphasis on potential to contribute
toward integrating teaching with computer vision research both at the
undergraduate and gradute levels. No particual paper format is
required during the review process. However, all accepted papers
should be submitted in standard IEEE 2-column format. All submissions
should include the e-mail address of the corresponding author. It is
planned that a selection of the best papers presented at the workshop
will be considered for a special issue of the ***IEEE Transactions on
Education***
