- Abstract
- Understanding the mechanisms involved in vision and intelligent behavior of the
brain, both from a natural and artificial point of view, demands more and more mul-tidisciplinary and integrated approaches of different disciplines: biophysics and neu-robiology, visual and cognitive sciences and theoretical neuroscience being only a
small sample.
The Brain, Vision and Artificial Intelligence Symposium 2007 (BVAI 2007,
Naples, Italy, October 10-12, 2007) was the second edition of a multidisciplinary
symposium that aims at gathering scientists involved in the study of basic brain, natu-ral vision, artificial vision, and artificial intelligence to promote discussion, exchange
of ideas, and integration.
BVAI 2007 was organized by researchers of the Institute of Cybernetics \"E.
Caianiello\" of the Italian National Research Council, Pozzuoli, Italy (ICIB-CNR),
with the support of the Italian Institute for Philosophical Studies (IISF). It was spon-sored by EBSA (European Biophysics Societies Association), GIRPR (Italian Group
of Researchers in Pattern Recognition), MARS (Microgravity Advanced Research
Support) Center, NEATEK SpA, PAN (Palazzo delle Arti Napoli), SINS (Italian
Society for Neurosciences), and Regione Campania. Travel grants were provided for
deserving young participants by EBSA, SINS and GIRPR. The symposium was held
under the auspices of the AI*IA (Italian Association of Artificial Intelligence),
Comune di Napoli - Assessorato alla Cultura and SIBPA (Italian Society of Pure and
Applied Biophysics), and with the help of the MQC
2
(Macroscopic Quantum Coher-ence and Computing) Association.
The scientific program included the participation of eight invited speakers, selected
among international leading scientists in the above-mentioned fields: Michael Arbib,
University of Southern California (USA), Matteo Carandini, The Smith-Kettlewell
Eye Research Institute (USA), Karl Gegenfurtner, Justus-Liebig University (Ger-many), Petr Lansky, Academy of Sciences (Czech Republic), José del R. Millán,
IDIAP Research Institute (Switzerland), Oliviero Stock, IRST and Fondazione Bruno
Kessler (Italy), Massimo Tistarelli, University of Sassari (Italy), John K. Tsotsos,
York University (Canada). Furthermore, the program included 50 contributions from
worldwide participants, presented in plenary oral and poster sessions. The peer-reviewing process for the papers was performed by the Scientific Committee, includ-ing distinguished members of the scientific community, together with a number of
additional reviewers, appointed by the Scientific Commitee members. The accepted
contributions were selected among about 80 papers submitted to BVAI 2007.
In this volume, all contributions to the symposium have been gathered according to
an increasing degree of abstraction, going from the most elemental aspects of the
visual processes to the most complex cognitive ones. The material has been structured
into the following parts: Basic Models in Visual Sciences, Cortical Mechanism of
Vision, Color Processing in Natural Vision, Action-Oriented Vision, Visual Recogni-tion and Attentive Modulation, Biometric Recognition, Image Segmentation and Rec-ognition, Disparity Calculation and Noise Analysis, Signal Identification in Neural
VI Preface
Models, Natural and Artificial Representation Issues in Artificial Intelligence, Mean-ing-Interaction-Emotion, Robot Navigation and Control. In our opinion, these topics
can be considered the flagstones paving th e road to the ongoing integration among
research in brain, vision and intelligence. We hope that this volume provides new
insights and is the basis of constructive discussions.
We would like to thank the invited speakers and all the contributors, the members
of the Scientific Committees, including the additional reviewers and all the partici-pants. Acknowledgements are due to all our sponsors (ICIB-CNR, IISF, EBSA,
GIRPR, MARS Center, NEATEK SpA, PAN, SINS, Regione Campania) for their
financial contribution. We would like to acknowledge the Steering Committee mem-bers for their advice and support. A special thanks goes to the Local Committee and
Secretariat members, who provided us with helpful assistance.
