A Workshop on Computer Vision is being organized under the Indo-Israeli MoU on research collaboration managed by DST. The workshop will be organized at the International Institute of Information Technology, Hyderabad during February 4-5, 2008. The workshop is intended to increase the direct interaction between Computer Vision researchers in Israel and India.

The top experts from the academia and research labs of India will participate in the event. In addition, Prof. Jitendra Malik of UC, Berkeley and Prof. Shree Nayar of Columbia University are expected to attend the event.

Researchers and research students working in Computer Vision and allied areas are invited to participate in the event. Travel support and accommodation will be provided at Hyderabad to a number of research students and faculty to attend the event. Interested individuals are requested to apply early for consideration.

The preliminary programme of the workshop is available at the provided link.(unfortunately, our college name has been mis-spelled on this site, I am trying to get this corrected)

Prof. Pujari from our college shall also be attending it. You may contact him for more details regarding this.

I guess, some of you can recall that Prof. Doron Benzvi was from Israel.

For those considering higher studies and interested in computer vision, this is a nice opportunity to network with the leading academia in this field.

Looking at the list of people attending it, I would strongly recommend you to attend it, provided you are interested in the field.
