DESCRIPTION
The AERFAI Summer School 2010 is organized by the Spanish Association
for Pattern Recognition (AERFAI) in collaboration with the Institute
of New Imaging Technologies at Universitat Jaume I of Castelló
(Spain). This is the fifth edition in a series of AERFAI Summer
Schools devoted to a wide range of topics in the fields of Pattern
Recognition and Machine Learning. The focus of this year Summer School
is to study the most relevant approaches to Pattern Recognition and
Machine Learning in Multimedia Systems. This event is open to any
researcher or PhD-student who is interested in learning or refreshing
their knowledge about the most successful approaches in the fields of
object & human-action detection/categorization and recognition.
AERFAISS’2010 is organized as a five-days intensive course to be held
June 7-11 in Benicàssim (Spain). Leading experts in the field shall
present each tutorial, followed by a practice session with specific
software in order for participants to gain a better understanding of
the theory. A non-formal poster session will also be organized for the
participants to present their current research and interact with their
scientific peers.
