About ICIAR

ICIAR – The International Conference on Image Analysis and Recognition aims to bring together researchers in the fields of Image Processing, Image Analysis and Pattern Recognition.

The conference will address recent advances in theory, methodologies and applications. The scientific program will include invited speakers and fully refereed contributions that will be published in the conference proceedings.

The ICIAR series of conferences is organized annually, alternating between Europe and America.

In 2004, the first conference, ICIAR 2004, was held in Porto, Portugal.
ICIAR 2005 was held in Toronto, Canada.
ICIAR 2006 was held in Póvoa de Varzim, Portugal.
ICIAR 2007 was held in Montreal, Canada.
ICIAR 2008 was held in Póvoa de Varzim, Portugal.
ICIAR 2009 was held in Halifax, Canada.
ICIAR 2010 was held in Póvoa de Varzim, Portugal.
ICIAR 2011 was held in Burnaby, BC, Canada.
ICIAR 2012 will take place in Aveiro, Portugal.
