=============================================================== IAPR CCIW 2009 Call for Papers Second Computational Color Imaging Workshop March 26-27, 2009 Saint-Etienne, France http://www.ligiv.org/CCIW09 ================================================================ The Second Computational Color Imaging Workshop will be held in Saint Etienne, France, March 26-27, 2009. The first CCIW was organized in 2007 in Modena, Italy, with the endorsement of IAPR. This workshop was held along with the International Conference on Image Analysis and Processing (ICIAP), the main conference on image processing and pattern recognition organized every two years by the Group of Italian Researchers on Pattern Recognition (GIRPR) affiliated with the International Association on Pattern Recognition (IAPR). The Second CCIW will be organized by the University Jean Monnet (Saint Etienne, France) with the endorsement of the International Association on Pattern Recognition (IAPR) and of the French Association for Pattern Recognition and Interpretation (AFRIF) affiliated with IAPR and with the endorsement of the "Groupe Français de l'Imagerie Numérique Couleur" (GFINC). Submission procedure: Prospective authors should format and submit a PDF version of their manuscript according to the instructions listed at the workshop website which will be published at the end of July 2008 (http://www.ligiv.org/CCIW09). All submitted papers will be reviewed by at least two independent reviewers. Accepted papers will be included in the CCIW 2009 proceedings. Submission implies that at least one author per paper will register and present the paper at the workshop. Planning this workshop, the organizers would like to focus on the methods and applications of digital color image processing and analysis. The workshop is intended for researchers and practitioners in the digital imaging, multimedia, visual communications, computer vision, and consumer electronic industry, who are interested in the fundamentals of color image processing and its emerging applications. Papers of current interest are invited to any of the areas listed below: * Computational color vision models * Perceptual color image processing * Color data compression and encoding * Color image/video indexing and retrieval * Semantic analysis of color images * Quality measure of color images * Color image filtering and enhancement * Digital color image content protection * Color image/video quality assessment * Multi-spectral/color image analysis * Spatiotemporal color interaction modelling * Color from science to art * Color-based facial image analysis * Applications and future trends Important dates: Paper submission deadline: December 1, 2008 Notification: January 30, 2009 Camera-ready papers: February 26, 2009 Workshop: March 26-27, 2009 Workshop Organizers/Chairs: Alain Tremeau Université Jean Monnet, Saint Etienne, France Alain.Tremeau@univ-st-etienne.fr Shoji Tominaga Chiba University, Chiba, Japan shoji@faculty.chiba-u.jp Raimondo Schettini University of Milano Bicocca, Milano, Italy schettini@disco.unimib.it Workshop Program Committee: Jesus Angulo, France James K.
