European Congress of Stereology and Image Analysis - ECS10
Date: 22-26 June 2009
Place: Milano, Italy
Call for Papers
The International Society for Stereology (ISS), founded in 1961 and incorporated in 1963, includes members from the fields of mathematics, statistics, biology and materials science. The purpose of the Society is to promote the exchange and dissemination of information, amongst persons of various scientific disciplines and countries, regarding Stereology - nominally the science of determining the spatial structure of materials - on the basis of sections and projections through the materials. Stereology also embraces the analysis of planar images per se, and three- dimensional probes of materials. A prime concern of the Society is all practical applications of Stereology. The ISS also promotes such associated fields as Image Analysis and Processing, Stochastic Geometry, Mathematical Morphology, Pattern Recognition, and Fractal Geometry.
Aims
The aim of ECS10 is to bring together leading scientists working in the areas of (but not limited to)
- Stereology
- Geometrical and Topological tools: 2D and 3D
- shape factors, norms, metrics, gauges, discrete geometry
- Main mathematical and physical transforms:
- Fourier, Karhunen-Loëve, Walsh-Hadamard, Wavelets, Time-Frequency...
- Stochastic geometry and related Statistical methods
- Spatial processes
- Pattern analysis
- Texture evaluation
- Image enhancement
- 3D reconstruction
- Colour images
- Shape analysis
- Pattern formation
Submission and review
The authors are requested to submit an abstract of their contribution following the instructions on the web site of the conference. Contributions may be either original or already published; it has to be specified clearly during submission. Original submissions are highly encouraged.
Authors accepted for an oral presentation will be invited to provide a paper, 6 pages long, for the conference proceedings. All contributed papers will be submitted to peer review.
Authors accepted for a poster will be invited to provide an extended abstract, 2 pages long, for the conference proceedings.
Authors of the best 10%-20% of the papers presented at the conference will be encouraged to submit an extended version of their papers for possible publication in the Journal of Image Analysis and Stereology.
