2008 IEEE International Conference on Image Processing
October 12-15, 2008 San Diego, California, U.S.A.
Call for Papers
The International Conference on Image Processing (ICIP), sponsored by
the IEEE Signal Processing Society, is the premier forum for the
presentation of technological advances and research results in the
fields of theoretical, experimental, and applied image and video
processing. ICIP-2008, the 15th in the series that has been held
annually since 1994, will bring together leading engineers and
scientists in image and video processing from around the
world. Research frontiers in fields ranging from traditional image
processing applications to evolving multimedia and video technologies
are regularly advanced by results first reported in ICIP technical
sessions. Topics include, but are not limited to:
* Image/video coding and transmission: Still image coding, video
coding, stereoscopic and 3-D coding, distributed source coding,
image/video transmission
* Image/video processing: Image filtering, restoration and
enhancement, image segmentation, video segmentation and tracking,
morphological processing, stereoscopic and 3-D processing, feature
extraction and analysis, interpolation and super-resolution,
motion detection and estimation, implementation and systems
* Image formation: Biomedical imaging, remote sensing, geophysical
and seismic imaging, optimal imaging, synthetic-natural hybrid
image systems
* Image scanning, display, and printing: Scanning and sampling,
quantization and halftoning, color reproduction, image
representation and rendering, display and printing systems, image
quality assessment
* Image/video storage, retrieval, and authentication: Image and
video databases, image indexing and retrieval, video indexing,
retrieval and editing, multimodality image/video indexing and
retrieval, authentication and watermarking
* Applications: Biomedical sciences, geosciences and remote
sensing, document image processing and analysis, other
applications
Paper Submission: Prospective authors are invited to submit extended
summaries of not more than four (4) pages including results, figures
and references. Papers will be accepted only by electronic submission
at www.icip08.org.
Submission of extended summary: January 18, 2008
Notification of acceptance: April 25, 2008
Submission of camera-ready papers: June 6, 2008
Tutorials: Tutorials will be held on Sunday, October 12,
2008. Proposals for tutorials must include a title, an outline of the
tutorial and its motivation, a two-page C.V. of the presenter(s), and
a short description of the material to be covered. Proposals for
tutorials should be submitted to Namrata Vaswani at
tutorials@icip08.org by December 7, 2007.
Workshops/Special sessions: As in previous editions ICIP-2008 will
include a number of special sessions. In addition ICIP-2008 will
include 2-4 workshops taking place on October 12. Workshops will
include tutorial presentations, lectures and posters on specific
focused areas, while special sessions will consist of lectures and
will continue to be part of the main technical program. Proposals for
workshops should be sent to Aggelos Katsaggelos and Kenneth Rose at
workshops@icip08.org by January 7, 2007. Proposals for special
sessions will be due to Drs. Katsaggelos and Rose at
specialsessions@icip08.org by December 7, 2007. Detailed guidelines
for submission will be provided in the conference webpage. Quality
workshop proposals that cannot be accommodated within the limited
space, and whose scope can be narrowed appropriately, will be invited
for resubmission as special session proposals. Prospective organizers
are strongly encouraged to contact Drs. Katasaggelos and Rose in
advance.
Demo Sessions: ICIP 2008 will introduce demonstrations. The purpose of
demos is to give presenters from the technical sessions the
opportunity to showcase live demonstrations of their
contributions. Prospective demo participants should fill out and
submit a demo application form which will be included in the
conference webpage. At least one of the people presenting the demo
must be registered for the conference. The conference reserves the
right to select demonstrations based on the degree of appropriateness
for ICIP. The deadline for demo application is June 30, 2008.
