The members of the project team organized the international conference FG 2015 (11th IEEE International Conference on Automatic Face and Gesture Recognition; http://www.fg2015.org), in the following roles: Aleš Leonardis (General Chair), Matej Kristan (Evaluation Chair), Danijel Skočaj (Publication Chair), Luka Čehovin (Web chair). The conference took place in Cankarjev dom in Ljubljana between 4th and 8th of May. The conference is the premier international forum for research in image and video-based face, gesture, and body movement recognition. It is a very established conference with a long tradition; since 1995 it is organized biannually. It attracts the most established researchers from the fields of image and video analysis for face, gestures, and gait recognition; in FG 2015 there were 219 registered participants. Its broad scope includes advances in computer vision, pattern recognition, computer graphics, and machine learning. By organizing this event, the members of the project team strengthen their position in the international research community and increased the visibility of the Slovenian research and organizational potentials and skills. The conference also had very good media coverage that contributed to the dissemination of our research to the general public in Slovenia.
B.01 Organiser of a scientific meeting
COBISS.SI-ID: 11014740The members of the project team also gave several invited lectures, such as at MTA SZTAKI in Budapest, Hungary, where the project and its initial results were presented. This is an additional way to disseminate the project results and to exchange the ideas with other researchers addressing similar problems. In addition to the invited talk we had several discussions about our research work and possible collaborations on the research topics that have been addressed in the framework of this project.
