Scope:

The International Conference on Computer Vision Theory and
Applications aims at becoming a major point of contact between
researchers, engineers and practitioners on the area of computer
vision application systems. Five simultaneous tracks will be held,
covering all different aspects related to computer vision: Image
Formation and Preprocessing; Image and Video Analysis and
Understanding; Motion, Tracking and Stereo Vision; and Applications
and Services.

VISAPP is part of VISIGRAPP, the 12th International Joint Conference
on Computer Vision, Imaging and Computer Graphics Theory and
Applications.

Registration to VISAPP allows free access to all other VISIGRAPP
conferences.
