Enviado por webmaster el Jue, 06/09/2016 - 08:54

Last February the Cuban Society of Mathematics and Computing (SCMC), and in particular our Cuban Association of Pattern Recognition (ACRP) received the visit of two prestigious American professors: Anil K. Jain, from Michigan State University and Rangachar Kasturi from University of South Florida.

One of the main agreement of this visit was to organize the First CUBA-USA Workshop on Pattern Recognition and Data Mining, which should be celebrated in Havana, Cuba, the last trimester of this year.

The aim of this meeting is to explore possibilities of collaboration between Cuban and American universities and research centers, in researches related to pattern recognition and data mining. In particular, this first meeting will be focused on the following topics:

1. Object Recognition in Images and Video

2. Biometrics

3. Data mining

The meeting will last for two days for presentations and academic exchange. It is expected the participation of about 6 American speakers (2 for each of the above subjects) besides professors Kasturi and Jain, and 6 Cuban speakers (2 for each subject as well).

Besides, a number of posters will be presented by Cuban researchers, covering different topics, from the main research groups on pattern recognition and data mining of the country.
