SCOPE
Recent advances in several key technological areas lead toward the large-scale use of information in a visual form. There is a pressing requirement to efficiently synthesise, capture, transform, analyse, manipulate, visualise, store, and retrieve images and pictorial data in a wide spectrum of applications. Future information systems in commercial and scientific applications will have a high visual content, and it is necessary to address various aspects of visual information processing.

The workshop focuses on visual information processing and aims to create a forum for researchers, including research students, in this area. We invite papers of original contributions on the following and related topics:

  • Data Visualisation and Visualization of the Knowledge Discovery Process, Visualization of data mining results;
  • Visualisation: visual representation, modelling and reconstruction, scientific visualisation, interactive exploration, virtual reality;
  • Image Processing: gathering, coding, transforming, restoration, filtering, enhancement, space-variant processing;
  • Medical Imaging: feature extraction, segmentation, reconstruction, image analysis (both qualitative and quantitative), tele-medicine;
  • Multimedia: image and video indexing and retrieval, tele-conferencing, compression, CAD, authoring, semantic annotation, applications
  • Computer Graphics: computational geometry, surface rendering, volume rendering, animation, Graphic User Interfaces (GUI) and HCI;
  • Pattern Recognition: statistical pattern recognition and syntactic pattern recognition, pattern classification, neural networks, character recognition, document analysis;
  • Computer Vision: real-time imaging, robot vision and tracking, automatic inspection, remote control and sensing.

ORGANISERS
Professor David Feng, Professor Peter Eades, Associate Professor Jesse Jin, and Professor Hong Yan
