CALL FOR PAPERS

The German Conference on Pattern Recognition (GCPR) 2019 is the 41th annual
symposium of the German Association for Pattern Recognition (DAGM,
www.dagm.de).  GCPR addresses recent advances in theory, methodology, and
applications of pattern recognition, machine learning, and computer vision.
Authors are invited to submit high-quality papers presenting original
research.  Submitted papers will be reviewed based on the criteria of
originality, soundness, empirical evaluation, and presentation. In the long
tradition of this conference series, the single track program with oral and
poster sessions will provide ample opportunity for open-minded discussions
and interaction. The conference will also include tutorials and a Young
Researchers Forum.
