ICIAR 2011 - Special Sessions - Multispectral and Hyperspectral Image and Video Processing

Special Sessions

Multispectral and Hyperspectral Image and Video Processing

Introduction

Recent advances in imaging and computer hardware technology have led to an explosion in the use of multispectral, hyperspectral, and in particular, color images/video in a variety of fields including agriculture, ecology, geology, medicine, meteorology, mining, and oceanography. As a result, automated processing and analysis of multichannel images/video has become an active area of research, which is witnessed by the large number of publications during the past two decades. The multivariate nature of visual data presents new challenges for researchers and practitioners as the numerous methods developed for single channel images/video are often n o t directly applicable to multichannel images/video.

The goal of this special session is to bring together researchers and practitioners working in the area of color, multispectral, and hyperspectral image and video processing. We are soliciting original contributions, which address a wide range of theoretical and practical issues including, but not limited to:

Coding and Compression
Sampling and Interpolation
Fusion
Filtering and Enhancement
Morphology
Edge Detection and Segmentation
Feature Extraction
Indexing and Retrieval
Applications and Future Trends

Paper Submission

Prospective authors are invited to submit papers of no more than 10 pages including results, figures and references. In submitting a manuscript to ICIAR 2011, the authors acknowledge that no paper substantially similar in content has been or will be submitted to another conference during the ICIAR 2011 review period. All papers will appear in the conference proceedings, which will be published by Springer-Verlag in the Lecture Notes in Computer Science (LNCS) series.

Authors of selected papers will be invited to submit an extended version of their papers to the Multispectral and Hyperspectral Image and Video Processing special issue of EURASIP Journal on Advances in Signal Processing.

Authors should submit their papers through the conference Paper Submission page, and select the Special Session: Multispectral and Hyperspectral Image and Video Processing topic when filling their paper information (in addition to other relevant topics if applicable).
