*SCOPE:*

ICIG 2015 - The 8th International Conference on Image and Graphics
(ICIG), organized
by China Society of Image and Graphics (CSIG) and Microsoft Research, and
hosted by Tianjin Society of Image and Graphics, will be held from August
13 to 16, 2015, in Tianjin, China.  ICIG is an important biennial event,
reporting various advances of theory, techniques and algorithms in the
fields of image and graphics. The conference is to provide a platform for
leading scientists and engineers from around the world to gather together
and discuss the relevant topics for further promoting the advances in the
fields. The conference will feature world-class plenary speakers,
exhibits, and high quality peer reviewed oral and poster presentations.
