2014 First International Image Processing, Applications and Systems Conference (IPAS 2014)

Special attention will be devoted to image processing algorithms and the way to implement these algorithms for best performances. Hardware implementations on embedded platforms are of particular interest. Five main topics will be treated : 1. Image and Video Processing Theory (IVPT) : Image Restoration Image Segmentation Image Representation Pattern Recognition Image Fusion Clustering 3D Imaging Watershed Decision Tree Mathematical morphology Gabor Wavelet Network Local Binary Patterns Inverse Problems Data reduction Supervised/unsupervised classification Motion Analysis Multiple View Analysis 2. Image and Video Processing Applications (IVPA) : Medical Imaging Content Based Image Retrieval Biometric Authentication Stereovision Remote Sensing Cryptography Watermarking Vision Systems Artificial Neural Networks Object Detection and Recognition 2D/3D Object Tracking Adaboost Biological Imaging Breast Cancer Diagnosis Surveillance and Security Robotics Ubiquitous Computing Compression Virtual and Augmented Reality 3. Computer Science and Imaging (CSI) : Ubiquitous Computing Possibilistic Theory Data Fusion Data Mining Signal Modelling Bio-Inspired Computing Image Coding Optimization Methods Optimization with Genetic Algorithms Cloud Computing 4. Real Time Image Processing (RTIP) : Hardware Implementation of Image Applications Computer Architecture Computer Aided Design Embedded Systems & HW/SW Co-Design Systems on Chip Artificial Intelligence Implementation Evolutionary Based Image Processing Pipeline techniques Vision System Implementation Image Networking 5. Human Focused Analysis (HFA) : Behavior Analysis Activity Recognition People Recognition Novelty Discovery Change Detection Gesture Recognition Posture Recognition Facial Expression Recognition Human and Group Interaction Analysis
