Proposal for Research in Parallel Languages and Environmentsfor Computer Vision

这一奖项是为了支持一名博士后助理从事实验计算机科学工作。这位名叫J·罗斯·贝弗里奇的同事将与卡内基梅隆大学的金德武夫博士一起在机器人研究所工作。他将在并行语言和计算机视觉软件开发环境领域工作。这项研究将集中在计算机视觉的需求上。尤其是低级和中级计算机视觉。我们的目标是开发一个独立于任何特定并行体系结构的连贯并行环境。这项研究的智力贡献将是更好地理解如何在并行环境中支持计算机视觉。这项研究的一个具体成果将是在一台新的索尼并行计算机上实施的试点系统。

This award is to support a postdoctoral associate to work in experimental computer science. The associate, J. Ross Beveridge, will be working with Dr. Takeo Kanade at Carnegie Mellon University in the Robotics Institute. He will be working in the area of parallel languages and software development environments for computer vision. The research will focus on the needs of computer vision. In particular low-level and intermediate-level computer vision. The goal is the development of a coherent parallel environment that is independent of any particular parallel architecture. The intellectual contribution of this research will be better understanding of how to support computer vision in parallel environments. A concrete product of this research will be a pilot system implemented on a new Sony parallel computer.
