Papers Accepted for CVPR '96

The following is an unofficial list of the papers accepted for
publication in CVPR '96. 137 papers were accepted out of 551 submitted
(25% acceptance rate). All reviewing was double-blind. Official
notification will be sent by mail, and an official advance program
will be available later.

Accepted papers are divided into two types for presentation at the
conference: poster presentations and oral presentations. Each type
will receive an equal number of pages in the proceedings (six pages
plus up to two extra pages for an additional cost). There is no
implied quality difference between these two types of papers.
