The Department of Electronics, Informatics, and Systems and the Department of Mathematics of the University of Bologna, organize an international workshop intitled "From Neuroscience to Phenomenology: Mathematical Models of Visual Perception". at the l'Accademia delle Scienze di via Zamboni 31 on july 1-3 2004. The conference is devoted to mathematical models of visual perception. The aim is to bring together researchers from vision cognitive neuroscience, psychology of perception and mathematics, in order to favor the synergy between these disciplines. The covered themes are - Functional Geometry of Visual Processing - Phenomenological Models of Perception. - calculus of vationations and subriemannian geometry. The Lectures who have accepted to give a talk are the following: Jean Petitot (CREA, Paris), Jan Koenderink (Utrech University), James Sethian (University of California, Berkeley), Steven Zucker (University of Yale), Paul Bressloff (Utah University), Raul Serapioni (Università di Trento), Ermanno Lanconelli (Università di Bologna), Giulio Sandini (Genova University and MIT), Alessandra Angelucci (Utah University), Mauro Ursino (Università di Bologna), Walter Gerbino (Università di Trieste), Nicola Fusco (Università di Napoli), Simon Masnou (Paris V), Riccardo March (CNR, Roma) The scientific committee is composed by L. Ambrosio (SNS, Pisa) J-M. Morel (ENS, Cachan) Jean Petitot (CREA, Paris) J. A. Sethian (UC Berkeley) For any further information, please refer to the conference website http:/www.vision.unibo.itmmvp If you are considering attending the conference PLEASE REGISTER: this will greatly assist the planning process.
