Publisher’s Note
Most cited paper award
On behalf of the Editor-in-Chief and Elsevier, the Publisher ispleased to announce the winning article for our annual ComputerVision and Image Understanding Most Cited Paper Award. Ourmost cited paper award offers an alternative to committee selected‘‘best papers’’. The only objective and transparent metric that ishighly correlated with the quality of a paper is the number of cita-tions. We hope that the design of this most cited paper award willensure fairness and equal opportunity for all authors published inthe journal. It is our hope that this award will stimulate the bestminds to release their best work.
Papers for this distinction are determined solely based on thehighest number of cites, excluding self-citations, received for alljournal articles published between the years 2010 and 2012 [dataculled from Scopus reports (www.scopus.com) created on 7January 2013]. The winning paper is ‘‘A survey of vision-basedmethods for action representation, segmentation and recognition’’,by Daniel Weinland, Remi Ronfard, and Edmond Boyer, Comput.Vis. Image Underst. 115 (2011) 224–241.
We congratulate Drs. Daniel Weinland, Rémi Ronfard, andEdmond Boyer on this great achievement.

Dr. Rémi Ronfard is a senior researcher atINRIA with a 20 year experience in industryand academia. He conducted research in avariety of domains, from geometric design to3D animation and computer vision. This in-cludes work on non-manifold topology in CA-TIA (Dassault Systemes, 1991), mesh LODs(IBM Research, 1992), digital cartoon story-boarding (INA, 1995), aesthetic surface design(IBM Research, 2000), action recognition andstatistical analysis of image and film styles
(INRIA 2002–2007). He has been an expert in the MPEG groupand has directed an R&D team on automatic cinematography andmovie editing (Xtranormal Technologies, Montreal 2007–2009).He is a founding member of the IMAGINE team at INRIA and thehead of the ‘‘Geometry and Image’’ Department of Laboratoire JeanKuntzmann (LJK) at the University of Grenoble.
Dr. Edmond Boyer is a senior researcher atINRIA Grenoble Rhône-Alpes (France) wherehe leads the Morpheo research team in com-puter vision. He obtained a PhD in computerscience from the Institut National Polytechni-que de Lorraine (France) in 1996. He was apost-doctoral researcher at the University ofCambridge (UK) in 1998 and an associate pro-fessor at Grenoble University from 1998 to2010. He joined the INRIA Grenoble as a re-search director in 2010. His current research
interests are on 3D dynamic modelling from images and videos,motion perception and analysis from videos, and immersive andinteractive environments. He is co-founder of the 4D View SolutionCompany that is specializing in 2D and 3D video capture.
