Computers, Privacy & Data Protection conference
CPDP 2009: Data Protection in A Profiled World?
16&17 January 2009, de Buren, Brussels
Data protection and privacy increasingly face new challenges posed by technologies and policies as well as society and individual expectations. Identifying and addressing such issues is the main goal of the annual Computers, Privacy & Data Protection (CPDP) conference.
The CPDP Conference aims at bridging policymakers, academics, practitioners and activists to create the most appropriate forum of discussion on key challenges.
It combines informative panels with the latest agenda news from data protection stakeholders and panels with current topics of interests.
The main topic of interest on this year’s CDPD Conference Data Protection in A Profiled World is ‘profiling and automatic computing’. Other topics are: e-voting and data breaches, e-privacy regulations and surveillance, privacy by design and social networks as well as developments in the JHA area. Read the rest of this entry »

EVENTI. Seminar announcement.
Title: An umbrella talk on recent video surveillance projects for people tracking, activity recognition and object classification.
Abstract: Automated video surveillance has gained momentum in recent years as the key technology for monitoring security and safety of wide areas such as train stations, shopping centres, car parks and others. The events of interest that can be detected in real time include intrusions, border trespassing, abandoning of dangerous objects, carrying-out of harmful or risky activities, and many others. However, the actual application of this technology is challenged by the diverse and variable operating conditions at the sites, and research progress is still much in need. This umbrella talk will present a pool of projects being carried out at University of Technology, Sydney (UTS), to forward the state of this art, namely: a) people tracking in camera networks with view gaps b) people tracking over crowded areas c) non-parametric models for activity recognition and d) feature sets and dimensionality reduction techniques for surveillance object.
