CALL FOR PAPERS

Workshop on Graph Matching
and Pattern Recognition (08)

To be held along with the 7th Mexican International Conference on 
Artificial Intelligence
(MICAI 2008), October 27-31, 2008, Mexico City, Mexico

This workshop is intended as a forum for discussion, exchange of points 
of view, assessment of results and methods, and as a source of 
dissemination and promotion of the newest advances in the area of Graph 
Matching and Pattern Recognition. It will focus on the combined field of 
Graph Matching and Pattern Recognition. These two research fields have 
always been overlapping, but the large volumes of pattern recognition 
expertise necessitate advanced techniques and efficient algorithms for 
graph matching. The workshop will bring together researchers and 
students from around the world to discuss, encourage and exchange ideas 
and experiences on different topics of graph matching and pattern 
recognition, as well as promote novel applications in an attempt to 
extend the frontiers of these two fascinating fields of research. The 
workshops will comprise of oral presentations and panel discussions.

Topics of interest include, but are not limited         

* Graph Matching Techniques and  Algorithms
* Pattern Representation and   Modelling      
* Visual Pattern Modelling 
* Object Detection, Tracking and Recognition
* Statistical Motion Analysis
* Spatial-Temporal Pattern Analysis and  Recognition
* Scalable Image and Video Coding

Submission Requirements:
Interested authors should submit their paper in PDF or MS Word format by 
email to Jixin Ma. Springer LNCS format guidelines should be followed 
for submission of papers to the workshop, even though the book (with its 
own ISBN) will be published by another publisher. Page limit is 10 pages 
per paper.
