Program chairs' introduction to the first international workshop on stochastic image grammars (SIG 09) in conjunction with IEEE CVPR 2009
The major theme of the program is to identify challenges facing the work toward a unifying theoretical foundation of stochastic image grammars. The program has research topics that deals with stochastic image grammars. The topics include learning vocabularies of visual primitives and parts; hierarchical models of events, activities, and scenes; taxonomies and ontologies for activities; inference algorithm for image grammars; use of grammars for image parsing, and generating sentences of image interpretation; and image datasets and evaluating stochastic image grammars.
