CONEX H. Bischof
ResearchThree application scenarios
• Object recognition
• Mobile robot navigation
• Interpreting human activities in video sequences
• Several (> 5) Joint Publications between partners demonstrate cooperative work

European Involvement• Participation in European 5th Framework NoE ECVision
• All three partners will participate in new 6th Framework Concerted Action:
euCognition
• Joint (ViCos, ICG) FET STREP Proposal HIBRID (invited to submit full proposal)
![Page 16: Horst Bischof Inst. f. Graphics and Vision Graz University of Technology](https://reader036.vdocuments.mx/reader036/viewer/2022062520/568159e6550346895dc7300f/html5/thumbnails/16.jpg)
