Course Description

The course surveys recent developments in high level and 3D computer vision and will focus on reading recent research papers on topics related to 3D object recognition and representation, spatial inference, activity understanding, human vision and 3D perception. The course is inspired by a famous series of workshops (called 3d-RR) which have been offered during the International Conference in Computer Vision (ICCV) since 2007.
