Research Groups in Computer Vision, Image Processing and Related Topics

Research group web sites usually provide links to individuals in the group, descriptions of recent (and often past) work, and papers by members of that group (both past and present). The group sites are also the best source for finding specific information and for making contact with the individual members. The summary section includes a link to people listed in that group.

Research Groups by Country
