>IEEE AVSS 2006, the IEEE International Conference on Advanced Video and 
>Signal based Surveillance 2006 to be held in Sydney, Australia, on 22-24 
>November 2006.

>AVSS is the IEEE conference series on video and signal based surveillance. 
>It welcomes contributions in traditional disciplines such as image 
>processing, video processing, signal processing, audio processing, pattern 
>recognition, and computer vision, but it also gives unique emphasis to 
>cross-disciplinary and visionary papers. AVSS targets participation from 
>the worlds of research, industry, and relevant government agencies, 
>offering them the opportunity to meet and foster collaboration. This 
>conference series was started in 1998 in Genoa. Following meetings held in 
>Kingston, UK, in 2001, Miami in 2003 and Como, Italy, in 2005 have seen 
>increasing levels of participation and have established AVSS as a forum of 
>reference for the field. AVSS 2006 will be held in Sydney, a beautiful and 
>vibrant city boasting one of the most spectacular harbours in the world. 
>The month of November typically enjoys pleasant, warm weather with average 
>maximum temperatures around 24-25 °C.
>
>High-quality contributions are sought on underlying theory, methods, 
>systems, and applications. The list of topics of interest includes, but is 
>not limited to:
>
>* Object-background segmentation
>* Motion detection and object tracking
>* Object classification and recognition
>* Gesture and action recognition
>* Activity monitoring
>* Interaction modelling
>* Behaviour analysis
>* Video analysis and event recognition
>* Threat assessment
>* Face detection and recognition
>* Multi-camera calibration
>* 3D vision for surveillance applications
>* Pattern recognition for surveillance applications
>* Statistical methods and learning
