First International Conference on Scale-Space and Variational Methods in
Computer Vision. Ischia, Italy, May 30- June 2, 2007
This international conference is a joint edition of the 6th Scale Space and the
4th VLSM and it will be a first attempt to bring together two different
communities with joint research interests, the one of scale space analysis and
the one of variational, geometric and level set methods and their applications
in image interpretation and understanding. Such a conference would serve
several purposes: international researchers and students would be exposed to
state-of-the-art research on mathematical, physical and computational aspects
of imaging, computer vision, graphics and inverse problems with applications.
TOPICS
Linear Scale-Space Theory, Nonlinear Diffusion, Morphological Image Processing,
Differential Geometry & Geometric Flows, PDE-Level Set, Langrangian &
Variational Methods, Statistical and Numerical Methods & Energy-minimization
Approaches
This conference deals with all aspects of these aspects, including
- theoretical foundations
- efficient numerical methods,
- applications in image and surface processing and computer vision
(image restoration, shape analysis, grouping, segmentation, motion, stereo,
registration)
- applications in other fields (biomedical applications, industrial inspection,
security).
IMPORTANT INFORMATIONS
It is planned to publish the proceedings in the Springer Lecture Notes in
Computer Science Series. Selected papers will appear in a special issue of the
International Journal of Computer Vision.
Prospective authors are encouraged to submit manuscripts of not more than 12
pages in Springer LNCS format by October 23rd, 2006.
