ICIP'89 successfully held in Singapore TOC ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Date: Sat, 7 Oct 89 01:12:38 GMT From: us214777@mmm.3m.com (John C. Schultz) Subject: Fractal scene modeling Organization: 3M - St. Paul, MN 55144-1000 US I am looking for some routines which would compute the fractal "dimension" of a natural texture. For example, given a texture I would like to compute the fractal dimension for small (8x8 up to 64x64 pixels) blocks of data. I have seen many references to such algorithms in the literature but the sections on how to actually compute a fractal dimension have been a trifle light. Perhaps someone could post an implementation to the net. A C implementation would be preferable from my viewpoint. John C.

In a previous posting regarding research assistant positions at the University of Geneva, Switzerland, I mistakenly inverted the exchange rate. You should read 1 US$ has been varying between 1.6 and 1.8 SFr. Sorry....

The conference chair was K. N. Ngan of the National University of Singapore and the keynote address were made by Takeo Kanade of CMU on "Computer Vision and Physical Science". There were about 200 delegates to the 19 sessions of the conference and 146 to the tutorials by T. S. Huang, B. G. Batchelor, R. J. Ahlers, and F. M. Waltz. Contact IEEE to obtain a copy of the conference proceedings. The 2nd IEEE ICIP is being planned, possibly to be held in the Fall of 1991.

I am told that the "Current Contents" weekly is now available also on diskettes. It also carries address list for the authors which may be of use for those who do not have access to a specific journal.
