Subject: CFP : IEEE 1st Int Conf on Biometrics - Wash DC - 15MAY2007
The First International Conference on Biometrics: Theory, Applications
and Systems (BTAS 07) strives to be the premier research meeting focused
on biometrics. Its broad scope includes advances in fundamental pattern
recognition techniques relevant to biometrics, new algorithms and / or
technologies for biometrics, analysis of specific applications, and
analysis of the social impacts of biometrics technology. Areas of
coverage include biometrics based on voice, fingerprint, iris, face,
handwriting, gait and other sources, as well as multi-modal biometrics
and new biometrics based on novel sensing technologies. Submissions
will be rigorously reviewed, and should clearly make the case for a
documented improvement over the existing state of the art. Experimental
results for contributions in established areas such as voice, face,
iris, fingerprint, and gait should are encouraged to use the largest and
most challenging existing publicly available datasets.

MEDICAL IMAGE UNDERSTANDING AND ANALYSIS 2007: CALL FOR PAPERS
University of Wales Aberystwyth, 17-18 July, 2007
http://www.miua.org.uk
You have received this message because you expressed an interest in a
recent MIUA conference. We will also send it to those registered for
previous MIUA meetings, so you may get it more than once. You may also
receive it if you belong to an appropriate mailing list. Sorry for
multiple copies.
This will be the 11th in a series of annual meetings that provide a UK
forum for the dissemination and discussion of research in medical image
understanding and analysis. While this is the principal UK conference in
this field, contributions from outside the UK are welcome and
encouraged. The scope of the meeting extends from analysis of medical
and biological images to imaging physics and clinical studies. Papers
up to FIVE pages long (a change from pre-2006 meetings) on any topic
within the scope of the meeting are requested, and will be reviewed by
the programme committee.
For more detailed information about the meeting visit the conference
website at http://www.miua.org.uk . Register with the website to obtain
further information concerning conference registration and paper
submission. If you have previously registered on an MIUA site (or
another site administered by CAWS), your details will have been
retained. Use your email address to log in. If you are a newcomer, you
can browse the site without registering. Registration is painless,
however, and will ensure you get kept up to date with conference
information.
Key dates for the time being:
Deadline for receipt of paper submissions --- April 16th 2007
Notification of acceptance --- May 21st 2007
Meeting --- July 17th and 18th 2007

The wavelet transform, multiresolution analysis, and other space-
frequency or space-scale approaches are now considered standard tools by
researchers in image and signal processing. Promising practical results
in machine vision and sensors for industrial applications and non
destructive testing have been obtained, and a lot of ideas can be
applied to industrial imaging projects. This conference is intended to
bring together practitioners, researchers, and technologists in machine
vision, sensors, non destructive testing, signal and image processing to
share recent developments in wavelet and multiresolution approaches.
Papers emphasizing fundamental methods that are widely applicable to
industrial inspection and other industrial applications are especially
welcome.
Papers are solicited but not limited to the following areas:
o New trends in wavelet and multiresolution approach, frame and
overcomplete representations, Gabor transform, space-scale and space-
frequency analysis, multiwavelets, directional wavelets, lifting
scheme for:
- sensors
- signal and image denoising, enhancement, segmentation, image
deblurring
- texture analysis
- pattern recognition
- shape recognition
- 3D surface analysis, characterization, compression
- acoustical signal processing
- stochastic signal analysis
- seismic data analysis
- real-time implementation
- image compression
- hardware, wavelet chips.
o Applications:
- machine vision
- aspect inspection
- character recognition
- speech enhancement
- robot vision
- image databases
- image indexing or retrieval
- data hiding
- image watermarking
- non destructive evaluation
- metrology

o Applications in microelectronics manufacturing, web and paper
products, glass, plastic, steel, inspection, power production,
chemical process, food and agriculture, pharmaceuticals, petroleum
industry.
All submissions will be peer reviewed. Please note that abstracts
must be at least 500 words in length in order to receive full
consideration.

Subject: REFS : CVonline visual neurophysiology subtree
Dear vision and image analysis people:
http://homepages.inf.ed.ac.uk/rbf/CVonline/ now has a subtree on visual
neurophysiology:
http://homepages.inf.ed.ac.uk/rbf/CVonline/neuro.htm
Support for this development came from the EU funded euCognition network
(for which we are grateful!)
http://www.eucognition.org/
CVonline's goal is not to be exhaustive, but to give a useful first
point of contact for explanations of different concepts and techniques.
Cvonline currently has about 1600 topics, 1200 of which have content.
It is useful for course references, student project introductions, quick
explanations, etc. It receives 3-4K accesses/week through the front page
and undoubtedly many more directly via google.
For those interested in image processing, there is also HIPR2, free
WWW-based Image Processing Teaching Materials with JAVA HIPR2 contains
tutorial materials for the 50 most commonly used image processing
operators. It contains tutorial text, sample results and JAVA
demonstrations of individual operators and collections.
http://homepages.inf.ed.ac.uk/rbf/HIPR2/
Best wishes, Bob
