Introduction

  • This seminar is in cooperation with the chair of Prof. Couzin (Max Planck Institute, Konstanz) and aims at students who would like to get insights into the field of Computer Vision in animal behaviour studies.

  • The Seminar will propose a list of recent scientific articles related to the main current research topics including machine learning for animal (group) behaviour studies, machine vision methods for analyzing social interactions, animal conservation and virtual reality in animal studies.

Registration

Requirements

In this Master Seminar (formerly Hauptseminar), each student is asked to select one paper from a list. In order to successfully complete the seminar, participants have to fulfill these requirements:

  • Presentation: The selected paper is presented to the other participants (20 minutes presentation 10 minutes questions). Use the CAMP templates for PowerPoint camp_PP.potx, or Latex: camp-template_latex.zip.
  • Written Report: A document of maximum 8 pages is written and submitted two weeks after the presentation. Please download and use the llncs2e.zip Latex template.
  • Attendance: Participants have to participate actively in all seminar sessions.

The students are required to attend each seminar presentation which will be held during this course. Each presentation is followed by a discussion and everyone is encouraged to actively participate. The report must include all references used and must be written completely in your own words (no copy and paste allowed). Both report and presentation have to be done in English.
