Overview
========
IMVIP 2007 - The International Machine Vision and Image Processing
Conference, will take place from the 5th to the 7th of September 2007
at the National University of Ireland Maynooth. IMVIP 2007 is the main
conference of the Irish Pattern Recognition and Classification Society
(IPRCS), a member body of the International Association for Pattern
Recognition (IAPR). The conference brings together theoreticians and
practitioners, industrialists and academics, from the numerous related
disciplines involved in the processing and analysis of image-based
information.

Scope
=====
IMVIP 2007 is a single-track conference consisting of high quality
previously unpublished contributed papers. The conference emphasises
both theoretical research results and practical engineering experience
in all areas. Full papers will be subject to a double-blind review
process by the Programme Committee. In addition to the contributed
programme, there will also be talks by invited speakers. Contributions
are sought in all aspects of image processing, pattern analysis and
machine vision, including but not restricted to the following topics:
* Data Clustering and Texture Analysis
* Image & Video Representation, Compression and Coding
* Medical and Biomedical Imaging
* Active Vision, Tracking and Motion Analysis
* Object and Event Recognition
* Face and Gesture Recognition
* 2D, 3D Scene Analysis and Visualisation
* Image Processing in Forensic Science
* Image/Shape Representation and Recovery
* Visually Guided Robot Manipulation and Navigation
* Applications, Architectures and Systems Integration

Proceedings
===========
All accepted papers will be published in the conference proceedings
and will be archived electronically through the IEEE Computer Science
Digital Library (CSDL) and IEEE-Xplore. The proceedings will also be
indexed through IEE INSPEC, EI (Compendex), and SCI (ISI).
