ELECTRONIC IMAGING SYMPOSIUM, SAN JOSE, CALIF. JANUARY 27-FEBRUARY 2, 1996
Very High Resolution and Quality Imaging
Conference Chairs: V. Ralph Algazi, Univ. of California/Davis; Sadayasu Ono,
NTT Optical Network Systems Labs. (Japan); Andrew G. Tescher, Lockheed Palo
Alto Research Lab.
The theme of the conference is imaging and image and document communications
for professional use, for which a control of image quality is critical. The
conference will address technical issues in image quality, image processing,
and compression, in the context of advanced applications and of user
communities.
Although much of image processing and principally the image and video
coding activities have been dominated by the use and for the support of
existing applications, such as television, or for rate-limited communications,
such as low bit rate video-conferencing, the future use of electronic imaging
and image communications in society, from the workplace, to research and
instruction, to medicine, etc., has to meet the needs and professional
requirements of these user communities. The current professional use of images
and documents, as well as of photography and film, already set quality
requirements that electronic imaging has to meet or exceed.
This conference will serve as a forum for the presentation and
discussion of electronic imaging quality and resolution requirements in art,
medicine, and digital libraries; in very high quality professional documents
and in film and multimedia communications. It will include invited
presentations and unsolicited papers on quality requirements, on image
representation and coding, and on image access and communications.
Papers are solicited in the following areas:
* Electronic Image Quality Requirements in Applications
- art, printing
- medicine
- digital libraries
- multimedia, cinema, and animation.
* Image Representation and Coding
- evaluation of existing techniques
- error control in representation and coding
- new methods for high-quality progressing schemes
- pre- and post-processing to improve quality.
* Systems and Projects
- digital libraries, archives, and collections
- medical imaging systems
- multimedia integration
- remote access and transmission systems
- hardware and devices.
This conference is just one of nearly 30 conferences to be held at the EI'96
symposium. And EI'96 is just part of the larger Photonics West Symposium being
held 27 January - 2 February 1996, San Jose Convention Ctr., San Jose,
California USA.

(*) Please note:
SPIE's area code changed from 206 to 360 in February 1995. If you experience
any difficulty using the 360 area code, please use 206 and notify SPIE, your
local phone company, and the people in charge of the phone system from where
you placed your call. You may also call 1-800-441-5516 to report the
difficulty. Thank you for your patience while US West and other regional phone
companies fix this problem. You may also call SPIE at 800/483-9034, a
temporary number for use during this transition to the new area code.
