13th INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE on PATTERN RECOGNITION
Technical University of Vienna, Austria
August 25 - 30, 1996
General Chair: Walter Kropatsch, Technical University of Vienna, Austria
Honorary Chair: Azriel Rosenfeld, University of Maryland, USA
Program Chair: Yiannis Aloimonos, University of Maryland, USA
Program Co-Chair: Ruzena Bajcsy, University of Pennsylvania, USA
Local Organizer: Horst Bischof, Technical University of Vienna, Austria
Contributions are sought on new research in all aspects of the broad field
of Pattern Recognition. The ICPR'96 will consist of four parallel
conferences of previously unpublished contributed papers, delivered either
orally or as a poster, as well as invited papers of general or specific
interest. The program for each individual conference will be organized by
its own Program Committee. The opening session and the social events are
common to all four conference parts. In addition, a set of tutorial
sessions, given by prominent researchers in the field, will be offered
during the day prior to the actual conference (Sunday). Specialized
workshops, organized by technical committees, will be held in the local
surroundings of Vienna during the week before the conference. The results
of these workshops will be reported during the conference. The conference
proceedings will be published by the IEEE Computer Society Press.

(please answer each question separately):
(a) What is the original contribution of this work?
(b) What is the most closely related work by others and how does this
work differ?
(c) Which track or tracks and which topics within a track are most
appropriate for the submission? (The Conference is not limited to
these topics and authors may specify that a paper falls in two or
more categories not listed. Categories are used to best match papers
with the expertise of the reviewers.)
Test data will be made available by
WWW
This WWW page provides pointers to data around the world which should
facilitate a comparison of results.
