Biographical Sketch
Bill Triggs is a permanant researcher (Chargé de Recherche) with the CNRS (Centre National de Recherche Scientifique), working in INRIA's MOVI team through the joint laboratory GRAVIR. He is an ex mathematical physicist, who also worked on robotics at Oxford University and INRIA before turning to computer vision. His past vision work focuses on the mathematical foundations of vision geometry and scene reconstruction, including multi-image geometric matching relations and self-calibration. Recently, he has also begun to work on pattern recognition. He managed the EU LRT project CUMULI on photogrammetry and computer vision, and currently leads MOVI's human tracking and reconstruction work under the EU project VIBES. He will organize the 2005 International Conference on Computer Vision in Cannes, France.

INRIA Rhône-Alpes
MOVI (MOdelling for VIsion, http://www.inrialpes.fr/movi) is a vision research team of about 22 people including 5 permanent researchers, lead by Dr Radu Horaud. It is located at INRIA Grenoble, and is part of the GRAVIR (Graphics, Vision and Robotics) grouping which combines researchers from INRIA, CNRS, the Institut National Polytechnique de Grenoble, and the Universit‚ Joseph Fourier.

MOVI's research focuses on three main themes: vision geometry and 3D reconstruction; vision based robotics; and pattern recognition and image databases. It is currently a partner in the EU projects VIBES, VISIRE and EVENTS. It has successfully participated in many previous collaborative research programmes including the EU projects VIVA, FIRST, SECOND, ARVISA, VIMINI, CUMULI and VIGOR, the TMR programme and the DARPA-ESPRIT action in vision for geometry. It also participates in the French GDR's (industrial-academic research groupings) "Man-Machine Communication" (ORASIS project) and "Analysis of Signals and Images" and has held co-operations with the companies ITMI, MATRA and AEROSPATIALE. It has had collaborations and exchanges with many local and international research groups, including the Universities of Illinois (Urbana-Champagne), Berkeley, British Columbia, Oxford, Melbourne, Gunma, Ljubljana, and Xi'an.
