Image Analysis

The two-volume set LNCS 10484 and 10485 constitutes the refereed proceedings of the 19th International Conference on Image Analysis and Processing, ICIAP 2017, held in Catania, Italy, in September 2017.

The 138 papers presented were carefully reviewed and selected from 229 submissions. The papers cover both classic and the most recent trends in image processing, computer vision, and pattern recognition, addressing both theoretical and applicative aspects. They are organized in the following topical sections: video analysis and understanding; pattern recognition and machine learning; multiview geometry and 3D computer vision; image analysis, detection and recognition; multimedia; biomedical and assistive technology; information forensics and security; imaging for cultural heritage and archaeology; and imaging solutions for improving the quality of life.

This book contains the proceedings of the 4th International Conference on Data Analysis and Processing held in Cefalu' (Palermo, ITALY) on September 23-25 1987. The aim of this Conference, now at its fourth edition, was to give a general view of the actual research in the area of methods and systems for achieving artificial vision as well as to have an up-dated information of the current activity in Europe. A number of invited speakers presented overviews of statistical classification problems and methods, non conventional archi­ tectures, mathematical morphology, robotic vision, analysis of range images in vision systems, pattern matching algorithms and astronomical data processing. Finally a survey of the discussion on the contribution of AI to Image Analysis is given. The papers presented at the Conference have been subdivided in four sections: knowledge based approaches, basic pattern recognition tools, multi features system based solutions, image analysis-applications. We must thank the IBM-Italia and the Digital Equipment Corpo­ ration for sponsoring this Conference. We feel that the days spent at Cefalu' were an important step toward the mutual exchange of scientific information within the image processing community. v. Cantoni Pavia University V.
