BMVC'06 - PAPERS SELECTED AND REGISTRATION OPEN
---------------

The British Machine Vision Conference (BMVC) 

    http://www.macs.hw.ac.uk/bmvc2006/

is the main UK conference on machine vision and related areas. Organised 
by the British Machine Vision Association, the 17th BMVC will be held 
September 4-7 2006 in Edinburgh organised jointly by Heriot-Watt University
and Edinburgh University. Because of the number of high quality papers,
the conference has been extended to 3 full days (instead of the previous
2 1/2 days); the conference ends in time for delegates to catch trains to 
London.

The papers to be presented at this year's conference have been selected
(46 orals and 81 posters).  BMVC2006 will have single-track oral and 
poster presentations. The paper titles can be seen at:

Registration is now open and can be accessed from the
main conference web page or directly from:

    http://homepages.inf.ed.ac.uk/rbf/BMVC06/bmvc06reg.htm

This registration is for the conference and accommodation (residential) or
only the conference (non-residential). We have a maximum of 190 dorm rooms,
to be allocated on a first-registered, first-reserved basis. Altogether, 
the maximum number of delegates will be 210. PLEASE NOTE: Edinburgh is a 
popular tourist venue and the Festival will have just finished, so there 
might still be difficulty finding hotel accommodation in the city centre.
Please register early to avoid hotel problems. 

In addition to the contributed papers, BMVC 2006 will include

    Tutorial (Mon Sept 4) by Maria Petrou on 
	Human vision system and data processing 

    Invited talks by David J. Kriegman and Brian Curless

    Workshop (Fri Sept 8) on Image Registration in Deformable Environments

The main web site has links to maps and travel details, plus some tourist 
information.
