[James Ferryman]

[apologies for multiple copies]

We are pleased to announce that the new PETS 2009 crowd analysis
dataset has been released.  This dataset contains a unique collection
of different crowd movements in an outdoor environment observed by up
to 8 synchronised cameras.  Please see below for details on the Call
for Papers.  Please feel free to forward this information to
interested people.


CALL FOR PAPERS

Eleventh IEEE International Workshop on Performance Evaluation of Tracking
and Surveillance (PETS 2009)

One-day workshop on 25th June 2009 organised in association with CVPR
2009, and supported by the EU project SUBITO.

http://pets2009.net

The aim of this workshop is to evaluate the application of video
surveillance algorithms/systems for crowd image analysis.  Specifically,
crowd count and density estimation, tracking of individual(s) within a
crowd, and detection of flow and specific crowd events.  The scenarios
are filmed from up to 8 cameras and involve multiple actors.

Papers are solicited which:

* Describe an approach to address one or more of the crowd image
analysis tasks, and include evaluation of the results obtained on the
PETS 2009 datasets.

OR

* Contribute to performance evaluation methodologies for crowd image analysis.

Deadline for electronic paper submission: 30th April 2009
