The UAV vision reading group is conducted by Dr. Bryan Morse, who works on UAV-based vision applications in collaboration with Dr. Michael Goodrich (CS), Dr. Randy Beard (ECEN), Dr. Tim McLain (ME), and Dr. D. J. Lee (ECEN). All students working on UAV-related related projects, as well as any other interested students or faculty, are welcome. The topics will primarily be those related to UAV-based vision applications, but we will also read other relevant vision papers.
If you plan to attend and would like to be notified of schedule changes, please send e-mail to Dr. Morse.
During Winter 2006, the group meetings are tentatively scheduled for Tuesdays from 4:00 to 5:00 PM in the CS Department conference room (3365 TMCB). Depending on which works better, we could also move to Thursdays at that time.
Here is the reading schedule, which will be updated as we go. We should try to have each week's paper tentatively lined up by the preceding week's meeting. If discussion of that week's paper carries over to the following week, we'll simply bump the schedule back.
