A special session on Remote Sensing Image Processing is planned for
ICIAR 2006, which will take place in Póvoa de Varzim, Portugal,
18-20 September 2006. While planning the special session, the organizers
would like to focus on emerging topics in Image Processing that will
significantly influence the research direction in the area of Remote
Sensing, particularly to what concerns Earth Observation from space.
As data from the new generation of satellite sensors is gradually becoming
available, there is a need for new image processing algorithms to cope
with the new data. The analysis of hyperspectral and synthetic aperture
radar (SAR) images are two of such examples. Other topics, such as image
segmentation, classification, and data fusion, although not new, still
pose hard challenges that need to be addressed. The special session
is intended for researchers and practitioners interested in image processing
for remote sensing, particularly in any of the areas listed bellow:
- Image enhancement and restoration
- Image Segmentation & Edge Detection
- Change Detection
- Clustering & Image Classification Algorithms
- Registration & Image Matching
- Image Data Fusion Techniques
- Multiespectral, Hyperspectral Lidar & SAR Image Processing
Submission procedure
Authors are invited to submit full papers showing original research
contributions. The conference proceedings will be published in the Springer
Lecture Notes in Computer Science series (Springer LNCS). Prospective
authors should submit an electronic copy of their complete manuscript
through the ICIAR 2006 submission system
by February 11, 2006, indicating the special session title in their
submission. All submitted papers will be reviewed by at least two independent
reviewers.

The ICIAR conferences are known to be a scientific forum in the area
of image processing with cross-disciplinary component where many different
applications are invited to be represented.
With the recent advances in medical imaging and biosignal acquisition
and their incorporation on the new generation of brain scanning and EEG
equipment a new �hot� research topic in the imaging processing community
has emerged - Brain Imaging. This topic covers from traditional brain CT/MRI
sequence processing to new high-field functional MRI datasets analysis
passing through new digital video-EEG processing techniques and multimodal
brain data fusion. From the neuroscience side, these new techniques have
been showing promising results in many different areas, from early detection
of the Alzheimer disease to more precise functional lesion 3D localization
that has a major impact in patient treatments and surgery.
The idea of the current proposal is to gather a group of
multi-disciplinary speakers and promote a scientific session that brings to
the ICIAR 2006 the state of the art techniques available and under
development and the newest neuroscience applications of these techniques.
