International Conference on Image Processing
September 14-17, 2003
Barcelona, Spain
=====================================================================
CONFERENCE FOCUS
================
The International Conference on Image Processing (ICIP), sponsored
by the IEEE Signal Processing Society, is the premier forum for the
presentation of technological advances and research results in the
fields of theoretical, experimental, and applied image and video
processing. ICIP-2003, the tenth in the series that has been held
annually since 1994, will bring together leading engineers and
scientists in image processing from around the world. Research
frontiers in fields ranging from traditional image processing
applications to evolving multimedia and video technologies are
regularly advanced by results first reported in ICIP technical
sessions.
TOPICS OF INTERESTS
===================
1. IMAGE/VIDEO CODING AND TRANSMISSION:
Still image and video coding, model-based and synthetic-natural
hybrid coding, source/channel coding, stereoscopic and 3-D coding,
coding standards, image and video over networks, error resilience,
video streaming.
2. IMAGE/VIDEO PROCESSING AND ANALYSIS:
Linear and nonlinear filtering and enhancement, restoration,
multiframe image restoration, segmentation, wavelets and
multiresolution processing, morphological processing, color and
multispectral processing, stereoscopic and 3-D processing,
modeling, analysis, interpolation and spatial transformations,
motion detection and estimation, image sequence processing, noise
modeling, architectures and software, neural, adaptive, and fuzzy
processing, computer vision.
3. IMAGE FORMATION:
Acoustic, radar, and tomographic imaging, nuclear, X-ray, and
magnetic resonance imaging, geophysical and seismic imaging, radio
astronomy and speckle imaging, optical imaging, and
synthetic-natural hybrid image systems.
4. IMAGE SCANNING, PRINTING, DISPLAY AND COLOR:
Scanning and sampling, quantization and halftoning, color
reproduction, image representation and rendering, display and
printing systems, image quality assessment.
5. IMAGE/VIDEO STORAGE, RETRIEVAL, AND MULTIMEDIA:

and editing, integration of images and video with other media,
content-based multimedia, multimedia applications, authentication
and watermarking.
6. APPLICATIONS:
Application of image processing technology to any field, including
biomedical sciences, astronomy, geosciences, environment,
humanities, arts, forensic sciences, and document processing.
PAPER SUBMISSION

Prospective authors are invited to submit extended summaries of not
more than four (4) pages including results, figures and
references. Papers will be accepted only by electronic submission
through the conference web site.
Submission of extended summary : January 10, 2003
Notification of acceptance : April 10, 2003
Submission of camera-ready papers : May 9, 2003
TUTORIALS AND SPECIAL SESSIONS PROPOSALS
========================================
Tutorials will be held on Sunday, September 14, 2003. Proposals
for tutorials must include a title, an outline of the tutorial and
its motivation, contact information for the presenter, and a short
description of the material to be covered. Proposals for tutorials
should be submitted to Fernando Pereira (fp@lx.it.pt) before
December 10, 2002.
ICIP-2003 will include a number of special sessions. Proposals for
special sessions must include a title, contact information for the
session chair(s), and a list of authors who have agreed to present
papers in the session. Proposals for special sessions should be
submitted to Ferran Marques (ferran@gps.tsc.upc.es) before December

CONFERENCE VENUE
================
ICIP 2003 will be held in the Catalonia Palace of Congresses, in
Barcelona, Spain. Barcelona is one of the most attractive
destinations in Europe both for its architecture and its cultural
life. The recently opened Catalonia Palace of Congresses with its
advanced design, offers functionality and capacity together with
the highest technology.
BEST STUDENT PAPER AWARD
========================
ICIP 2003 is pleased to announce an award for the Best Student
Paper. Application for the award will be by self-nomination after
acceptance of the paper upon submission of the final manuscript.
