✦ Synopsis

After a period of tremendous excitement and enthusiasm, many industrial people and researchers are disenchanted with computer vision, and others are certainly much less enthusiastic about it. The time has come to regroup. To restore the upward trend of our field, critical introspection followed by serious corrective action is required. Active researchers in computer vision can make it a balanced science that can be applied in many disparate areas by following research approaches used in most of the successful ap plied scientific fields. Our aim in this paper is to provoke discussion and actions that may lead to corrections in our favorite research field. 0 1~1 Academic PM, IOC.
