Photogrammetric and Computer Vision Techniques for Video Surveillance, Biometrics and Biomedicine

Photogrammetric and computer vision methods for surveillance, biometrics, biomedical imaging, and diagnostics have been attracting more attention in the recent years. Interdisciplinary collaboration is essential for providing new developments and tools in this field.

The third international workshop Photogrammetric and Computer Vision Techniques for Video Surveillance, Biometrics and Biomedicine (PSBB19) enables presentations and discussions of novel achievements in photogrammetric and computer vision research on the analysis of human body, features, behavior, and the environment, both for biomedical and security applications.

The 2019 workshop is a follow-up to the successful 2015 and 2017 PSBB editions. It is organized by the International Society for Photogrammetry and Remote Sensing (WG II/5 and WG II/10), the State Research Institute of Aviation Systems, Lomonosov Moscow State University, and the Moscow Institute of Physics and Technology.

Invited speakers

  • Fabio Remondino, Bruno Kessler Foundation (FBK), Italy — “Toward Photogrammetry 2020”
Remondino holds a PhD in photogrammetry from ETH Zurich. He heads the 3D Optical Metrology (3DOM) research unit at the Bruno Kessler Foundation of Trento, Italy. His research interests are information extraction from imagery, data fusion, and point cloud processing. He holds the Italian habilitation as a full professor in geomatics and has taught 3D surveying and photogrammetry at ETH Zurich (Switzerland), the University of Innsbruck (Austria), the Skolkovo Institute of Science and Technology (Russia), and the University of Bologna (Italy). He is currently president of the ISPRS Technical Commission II: Photogrammetry, vice president of EuroSDR, and vice president of CIPA Heritage Documentation. He authored nine books, some 200 papers published in journals and conference proceedings, and gave 22 invited and keynote talks at international conferences.

  • Victor Lempitsky, Skolkovo Institute of Science and Technology (Skoltech) and Samsung AI Center, Moscow, Russia — “Convolutional Networks in Telepresence Applications”
Lempitsky leads the Vision, Learning, Telepresence (VIOLET) Lab at the Samsung AI Center in Moscow. He also holds an associate professorship at Skoltech. In the past, Lempitsky was a researcher at Yandex, the Visual Geometry Group (VGG) of Oxford University, and the Computer Vision group of Microsoft Research Cambridge. He holds a PhD from Lomonosov Moscow State University (2007). His research interests are the various aspects of computer vision and deep learning. He has published extensively in top computer vision and machine learning journals, and has served as a section chair at top computer vision conferences (CVPR, ICCV, ECCV) on multiple occasions.
