The 2006 conference organizers handled 1,131 papers and multiple reviews for each one; 54 were selected for oral presentation, and 264 for posters, all of which are presented in this two-volume proceedings set. The broad topics include recognition, segmentation, learning, graphics and image synthesis, geometry, stereo and 3D reconstruction, tracking and video analysis, matching and registration, action recognition, and low level and photometric analysis. A brief sampling of specific topics: noise estimation from a single image, a geodesic active contour framework for finding glass, scale variant image pyramids, reconstruction with interval constraints propagation, clustering appearance for scene analysis, space-time video montage, and person reidentification using spatiotemporal appearance. Indexing is by author only. Annotation ©2006 Book News, Inc., Portland, OR (booknews.com)
