About ICIAR

ICIAR – There has been major progress witnessed in the fields image and video processing, multi-media retrieval and indexing, pattern analysis and recognition. The International Conference on Image Analysis and Recognition has been a niche conference aiming at bringing together researchers and practitioners in the fields of Image and Video Processing, Image and Video Analysis and Pattern Recognition, using the latest tools of machine intelligence, connectionist modelling and statistical pattern analysis.

The conference addresses recent advances in theory, methodologies and applications. The scientific program includes invited talks by distinguished researchers in the field and fully refereed contributions that are published in the conference proceedings that have been published regularly by Springer in the Lecture Notes in Computer Science series.

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