CALL FOR PAPERS

EVOIASP 2009

11th European Workshop on Evolutionary Computation 
in Image Analysis and Signal Processing

Tuebingen, Germany, 15-17 April 2009

======================================================================

Evolutionary algorithms have been shown  to be tools which can be used
effectively in  the development of systems (software  or hardware) for
image  analysis  and signal  processing  in  complex  domains of  high
industrial and social relevance.

EvoIASP, the longest running of  all EvoWorkshops, has been the first,
and  is   still  the  only,   event  specifically  dedicated   to  the
applications of  evolutionary computation  (EC) to image  analysis and
signal  processing  (IASP)  and  offers researchers  in  those  fields
world-wide, as well as people from industry, an opportunity to present
their  latest  research  and   to  discuss  current  developments  and
applications,  besides  fostering  closer future  interaction  between
members of the three scientific communities.

The  ten editions  of the  Workshop so  far were  held  in Gothenburg,
Sweden  (1999), Edinburgh,  UK  (2000), Como,  Italy (2001),  Kinsale,
Ireland  (2002),  Colchester,  UK  (2003), Coimbra,  Portugal  (2004),
Lausanne,  Switzerland  (2005),  Budapest, Hungary  (2006),  Valencia,
Spain (2007), and Naples, Italy (2008).

Topics of interest include, but are not limited to:

    * applications of evolutionary computation to real-life IASP problems,
    * evolvable vision and signal processing hardware,
    * evolutionary pattern recognition,
    * hybrid architectures for machine vision and signal processing
    * including evolutionary components,
    * theoretical developments,
    * comparisons between different evolutionary techniques and between 
      evolutionary and non-evolutionary techniques in IASP applications,
    * time series analysis by means of EC techniques.
