Call for Papers: The 2006 IAENG International Workshop on Imaging Engineering From: International Association of Engineers (IAENG) Call for Papers ========================== The 2006 IAENG International Workshop on Imaging Engineering (Part of The International MultiConference of Engineers and Computer Scientists IMECS 2006) IMECS 2006: 20-22 June, 2006, Hong Kong =========================== The IWIE'06 workshop is held as part of the International MultiConference of Engineers and Computer Scientists 2006. The IMECS 2006 is organized by the International Association of Engineers (IAENG), and serves as good platforms for the engineering community members to meet with each other and to exchange ideas. Extended version of the papers under this workshop can be included in the special issue of our journal Engineering Letters. And, further extended version can also be included in a book called "Current Trends in Imaging Engineering" to be published by IAENG. The IMECS 2006 multiconference has the focus on the frontier topics in the theoretical and applied engineering and computer science subjects. It consists of 14 workshops (see the details at IMECS website: www.iaeng.org/IMECS2006). The multiconference serves as good platforms for the engineering community members of different disciplines to meet with each other and to exchange ideas. The current conference committee of the IMECS 2006 includes over 140 workshop co-chairs and committee members of mainly research center heads, department heads, professors, research scientists from over 20 countries, while a few of the committee members are also experienced software development directors and engineers. The topics of the workshop include, but not limited to, the following: Image acquisition Image processing Medical image processing Pattern recognition and analysis Visualization Image coding and compression Face Recognition Super-resolution imaging Image segmentation Face recognition 3-D and Surface Reconstruction Document analysis And applications of image engineering ========= Submission: Prospective authors are invited to submit their draft paper in abstract format (one page) or in full paper format to imecs@iaeng.org by 12 March, 2006. The submitted file can be in MS Word format, PS format, or PDF formats. The first page of the draft paper should include: ¡P Title of the paper; ¡P Name, affiliation and e-mail address for each author; ¡P A maximum of 5 keywords of the paper; Also, the name of the workshop session that the paper is being submitted to should be stated in the email. ============= Important Dates: Proposals for special conference sessions and tutorials deadline: 30 December, 2005 Draft Manuscript / Abstract submission deadline: 12 March, 2006 Camera-Ready papers & Pre-registration due: 2 April, 2006 IMECS 2006: 20-22 June, 2006 More details about the IWIE 2006 can be found at: http://www.iaeng.org/IMECS2006/IWIE2006.html IWIE Workshop Co-chairs and Comittee Members: Chin-Chen Chang (co-chair) IEEE Fellow, IEE Fellow Chair Professor in Department of Information Engineering and Computer Science, Feng Chia University, Taiwan Yung-Sheng Chen (co-chair) Professor, Electrical Engineering Department Yuan Ze University, Taiwan Yu-fai Fung Assistant Professor, Department of Electrical Engineering Hong Kong Polytechnic University, Hong Kong JunWei Hsieh Associate Professor, Department of Electrical Engineering Yuan Ze University of Taiwan, Taiwan Hsi-Chin Hsin (co-chair) Professor at the department of Computer Science and Information Engineering, National Formosa University, Taiwan Ralph W.L.
