CALL FOR PAPERS Workshop on Computer Vision for Nanoscale Imaging, Rio de Janeiro, Brazil, October 2007. In Conjunction with ICCV 2007, October 14th-21th, 2007. http://www.cs.fit.edu/Projects/cvnano/iccvnano.html Computer vision is rapidly expanding into this new and exciting field of nanoscale imaging, and considerable research efforts are currently being spent on developing new image-based characterization techniques to analyze these images. Nanoscale characterization requires algorithms to perform image analysis under extremely challenging conditions such as low signal-to-noise ratio and low resolution. It is important to design image processing and analysis algorithms that are able to enhance images, detect objects and features, reconstruct 3D geometry, and track features. The goal of the workshop will be to bring in researchers from multi-disciplinary areas and identify common mathematical problems, models, and methods for future research in this emerging new topic. Contributed papers describing recent advances in either area of nanoscale image analysis research or application are welcome. A non-exclusive list of possible topics for submissions in the area of nanoscale image analysis is: – Image enhancement techniques – Noise characterization (for example, noise modeling for TEM, SEM, etc.) – Object detection techniques – Texture analysis – Feature extraction techniques – Tracking in nanoscale image sequences – 3D reconstruction techniques – Characterization of semitransparent objects – Multi-modal fusion for visualization – Nanobio image analysis IMPORTANT DATES Deadline for paper submission: June 4th, 2007 Notification of acceptance: End of July, 2007 (Parallel to ICCV) Deadline for camera-ready electronic copy: August, 2007 (Parallel to ICCV) ORGANIZING COMMITTEE Eraldo Ribeiro: mailto:eribeiro@cs.fit.edu (Florida Institute of Technology, USA) Mubarak Shah: mailto:shah@cs.ucf.edu (University of Central Florida, USA) Kuntal Sengupta: mailto:kuntal.sengupta@ieee.org (AuthenTec Inc., USA) For further details please see the workshop website at: http://www.cs.fit.edu/Projects/cvnano/iccvnano.html
