International Conference on Image and Video Retrieval (CIVR 2010)

[Page Lee]

Image and video storage and retrieval continues to be one of the most
exciting and fastest-growing research areas in the field of multimedia
technology.
However, opportunities for the exchange of ideas between different
groups of researchers, and between researchers and potential users of
image/video
retrieval systems, are still limited. The International Conference on
Image and Video Retrieval (CIVR) series of conferences was originally
set up to illuminate
the state of the art in image and video retrieval between researchers
and practitioners throughout the world. This conference aims to
provide an international
forum for the discussion of challenges in the fields of image and
video retrieval. CIVR2010 is seeking original high quality submissions
addressing innovative
research in the broad field of image and video retrieval. A unique
feature of the conference is the high level of participation from
practitioners. Applications
papers and presentations suitable for a wide audience are therefore
particularly welcome.

Topics of interest include but are not limited to:
• Content-based indexing, search, and retrieval of images & videos
• Semantic-based indexing, search, and retrieval of images & videos

• Affect-based indexing, search, and retrieval of images & videos

• Advanced descriptors and similarity metrics for images, audio and
video

• Learning and relevance feedback in image/video retrieval

• 3D images and models

• Ontologies for annotation and search of images and videos

• Fusion of multimedia

• Image/video summarization and visualization

• Evaluation of image and video retrieval systems

• Database architectures for image/video retrieval

• Novel image data management systems and applications

• High performance image/video indexing algorithms

• Image/video search and browsing on the Web

• Retrieval from multimodal lifelogs

• Applications in satellite, forensic, (bio-)medical image and video
collections

• HCI issues in image and video retrieval

• Novel image data management systems and applications

• Neural network techniques for image & video classification and
retrieval
