CEC 2012 Special Session: Evolutionary Computer Vision --- Call for Papers
Special Session: Evolutionary Computer Vision 2012 IEEE Congress on Evolutionary Computation (CEC 2012) Part of 2012 IEEE World Congress on Computational Intelligence WCCI 2012 Brisbane, Australia, 10-15 June, 2012 http://homepages.ecs.vuw.ac.nz/~mengjie/ecv12.html
Computer vision is a major unsolved problem in computer science and engineering. Over the last decade there has been increasing interest in using evolutionary computation approaches to solve vision problems. Computer vision provides a range of problems of varying difficulty for the development and testing of evolutionary algorithms.
The theme of the proposed special session is the use of evolutionary computation for solving computer vision and image processing problems. The proposed special session aims to bring together theories and applications of evolutionary computation to computer vision and image processing problems. Topics of interest include, but are not limited to:
----------------------------------------------------
New theories and methods in different EC paradigms to computer vision and image processing including
* Evolutionary algorithms such as Genetic algorithms, genetic programming, evolutionary strategy and evolutionary programming; * Swarm Intelligence such as particle swarm optimisation, ant colony optimisation, and differential evolution; and * Other approaches such as learning classifier systems, harmony search, and artificial immune systems. * Cross-fertilization of evolutionary computation and other techniques such as neural networks and fuzzy systems is also encouraged.
Applications in computer vision and image processing including
* Edge detection in noisy images * Image segmentation in biological images * Automatic feature extraction, construction and selection in complex images * Object identification and scene analysis for medical applications * Object detection and classification in security scenarios * Handwritten digit recognition and detection * Vehicle plate detection * Face detection and recognition * Texture image analysis * Automatic target recognition in military services * Gesture identification and recognition * Robot vision ----------------------------------------------------
Important Dates: -----------------------
The initial submission dates are as follows (subject to change)
* Paper Submission: 19 Dec 2011 * Decision Notification: 20 Feb 2012 * Camera-Ready Submission: 02 April 2012
