being used in the context of crop imaging, driven in large part by the challenge of high throughput phenotyping (identification of effects on plant structure and function resulting from genotypic differences and environmental conditions). Motivated by applications
in crop imaging, this workshop will focus upon the general challenge of feature extraction from 3D point clouds, bringing together those working on challenges of this type in different applications. This free workshop will provide an excellent opportunity
for those working on algorithms for 3D point cloud processing to present their work and to explore applications in crop imaging.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
