ETISEO / Techno-Vision
ETISEO is part of the Techno-Vision program
Partially funded by the French government. 2
years duration, started in January 2005 To
evaluate vision techniques for video
surveillance applications.
4
Main objectives

• To promote evaluation usage in image processing
  domain,
• To diffuse good practices,
• To create perrennial structure.

5
The way

• To support resources generation,
• To support evaluation cycles,
• Encourage a large active participation

6
Detailed Objectives

• To conceive automatic evaluation tools for
  vision algorithms to allow a fair and
  quantitative comparison between algorithm results
  and reference data.
• To acquire precise knowledge of vision
  algorithms capabilities to assess technological
  limits.

To have a meaningful evaluation

Participation

• - All participants are welcome to participate.
• Voluntary is the rule
• participants are expected to test their
  algorithms on their own and to send their results
  to the evaluator.
• After the participants commitment,
• video database will be transmitted.
• - All participants will be welcome to attend
  freely workshops organized during the project.
