Dear All,

We are running a second PASCAL Visual Object Classes Recognition Challenge. This time there are more classes (ten), more challenging images, and the possibility of confusion between classes with similar visual appearance (cars/bus, bicycle/motorbike).

As before participants can recognize any or all of the classes, and there is a classficiation and a detection track.

The development kit (Matlab code for evaluation, and baseline algorithms) and training data is now available at:

http://www.pascal-network.org/challenges/VOC/voc2006/index.html

where further details are given. The timetable of the challenge is included below.

It would be great if each of you or your groups could participate.

Best wishes,

Andrew Zisserman
