IEEE Workshop on Mathematical Methods in Biomedical Image Analysis --- in cooperation with SIAM Hotel Nikko --- San Francisco June 21-22, 1996 The purpose of this workshop is to foster dialogue and debate which will more sharply focus attention on important areas of research in biomedical image analysis. The workshop is the second meeting on biomedical image analysis, the first of which was held in Seattle after CVPR '94. The second workshop will immediately follow CVPR'96 on June 21-22 and is the result of merging mathematical methods in medical imaging (MMMI) meetings previously held under SPIE sponsorship, with workshop on biomedical image analysis. The program will consist of previously unpublished, contributed and possibly invited papers on all aspects of mathematical approaches to biomedical image analysis. In addition, one or two panel discussions on topics related to biomedical image analysis is planned. A selection of best contributed papers to the workshop will be published in a special issue of the journal CVIU. A list of possible themes for submitted papers, meant to be suggestive rather than exclusive, is: Curve/Surface/Volume Registration Snakes, Splines, and Deformable Models Level-Set Evolution Matching and Deformation Maps for Anatomical Shapes Measurement of Anatomical Structures Motion Analysis of Biomedical Images Multimodality Image Analysis Multidimensional Segmentation Multidimensional Surface and Volume Models Applications PAPER SUBMISSION Four copies of complete manuscript should be received by Monday, January 8, 1996 at the address: Amir Amini Department of Diagnostic Radiology and Electrical Engineering Yale University PO Box 208042 333 Cedar Street, 325 BML New Haven, CT 06520 USA Papers should include (a) A title page containing the names and addresses of the authors (including e-mail), an abstract of up to 200 words, and one or more categories as listed above or other keywords, (b) A second title page - title and abstract only (to allow for double blind reviewing), (c) Summary Page- Please answer the following questions: (1) What is the original contribution of this work?
