OVERVIEW

 

The Second International Workshop on Mobile Multimedia Processing will
be held in Istanbul, Turkey, on August 22, 2010, in conjunction with
the 20th International Conference on Pattern Recognition (ICPR
2010). This is the follow-up of the successful First International
Workshop on Mobile Multimedia Processing held in conjunction with 19th
ICPR in Tampa, Florida, 2008. The motivation of this workshop series
is to timely address the challenges in applying advanced pattern
recognition, signal processing, computer vision and multimedia
techniques to mobile systems, given the proliferating market of mobile
and portable devices that have been widely spreading in both consumer
(e.g. smartphones such as iPhone, music, mobile TV, digital cameras,
HDTV) and industrial markets (e.g. control, medical, defense etc.).

 

One aim of the workshop is to bring together researchers in pattern
recognition as well as in mobile interaction, ubiquitous computing,
and multimedia. The intended audiences of this workshop are
researchers in traditional pattern recognition and media processing
techniques wanting to extend their work in the mobile domain, and
those researchers in mobile interaction, ubiquitous computing, and
cross related fields wanting to explore latest achievements in the
pattern recognition field to expand their work.

 

 

SCOPE

 

The motivation of this workshop is to timely address the challenges in
applying advanced pattern recognition, signal processing, computer
vision and multimedia techniques to mobile systems, given the
proliferating market of mobile and portable devices that have been
widely spreading in both consumer (e.g. smartphones such as iPhone,
music, mobile TV, digital cameras, HDTV) and industrial markets
(e.g. control, medical, defense). The proposed scope of this workshop
includes, but is not limited to, the following areas:

 

- Mobile speech, image and video processing

- Surveillance, biometric, authentication and security technologies

  in mobile environment

- Mobile visual search

- Mobile image retrieval

- Mobile augmented reality browsers

- Mobile video streaming

- Multimodal pedestrian navigation systems

- Multimedia applications for automotive systems

- Mobile navigation, content retrieval, authentication

- Pervasive computing / context aware methodology and application

- Multimodal interfaces and visualization for mobile devices

- Handheld augmented reality

- Personalization and recommender systems in mobile environment

- Mobile oriented media processing for communication and networking

- Medical applications and bioinformatics in mobile environment

- Entertainment applications in mobile environment

- Mobile multimedia applications in geospatial information systems
