CALL FOR PAPERS [***Deadline extension: September 30, 2011***]
THEORETICAL COMPUTER SCIENCE
Special Issue on ``Theory and Applications of Graph Searching Problems''
Manuscripts are solicited for a special issue in the journal "Theoretical Computer Science" (TCS) on
"Theory and Applications of Graph Searching Problems". This special issue will be dedicated to
the 60th birthday of Lefteris M. Kirousis.
Graph searching is often referred to, in a more playful language, as a pursuit-evasion game. This is a kind of
game where one part is a set of evaders, that hide in a graph representing a network, and the other part is a
number pursuers, that move systematically in the graph. The game may vary significantly according to the
capabilities of the evaders and the pursuers. The objective of the game is to capture the evaders in an optimal
way, where the notion of optimality itself admits several interpretations. The area of Graph Searching has
become a very active research area in theoretical computer science and discrete mathematics, with impact
and applications in various domains.
Submissions should be made in PDF format using the standard TCS submission system
at http://ees.elsevier.com/tcs/ In the beginning of the submission,
please choose as an Article Type: "SI TCS-A: Graph Searching (Thilikos)".

ICPR 2012 Call for contest
The ICPR 2012 Contest Co-Chairs invite proposals for contests, whose results will be presented at the 21st International Conference on Pattern Recognition. The aim of the contests is to encourage better scientific development through comparing competing approaches on a common dataset. Each contest needs a contest organizer, who will be responsible for providing the dataset and setting clear competition tasks. The contest organizer should advertise the contest by Oct 1, 2011. The ICPR web site will also publicize the contest. The contest meeting will be a quarter/half day session (organizer s choice) at the conference on November 11, 2012, immediately before the start of the main conference. The format of the meeting is up to the contest organizer, but we anticipate it will include a description of the challenge and dataset, and a summary of performance on the different competition tasks. There could be presentations by the top scoring teams.

The 2011 IEEE/WIC/ACM International Workshop on
Graphs and Complex Object Matching (G-COM 2011)
22 - 27 August 2011,
Campus Scientifique de la Doua, Lyon, France
Applications such as digital libraries, mediation systems or architectures based on Web services produce huge amounts of data that lead to the generation of a large number of models that are to be stored and accessible by users (customers) by means of suitable query interfaces. These models which describe complex objects such as documents, business processes or ontologies related to specific areas of knowledge are usually represented by graphs. Most applications that handle such models use graph techniques such as the matching process to access data by exploring structural and semantic properties of these graphs.
Furthermore, the graph matching is one of the known hard problems in graph theory and optimization. Several algorithms and heuristics have been developed for exact and inexact matchings, embedding and packing of graphs on general graphs and/or graph classes.
The purpose of this workshop is to bring together different communities of academic and industrial researchers working on problems of matching of graph models. Discussions will be held on theoretical and applied aspects of these problems.

1st International Workshop on Similarity-Based Pattern Analysis and
Recognition
28-30 September, 2011
Venice, Italy
MOTIVATION:
By departing from vector-space representations one is confronted with the
challenging problem of dealing with (dis)similarities that do not necessarily possess
the Euclidean behavior or not even obey the requirements of a metric. The lack of the
Euclidean and/or metric properties undermines the very foundations of traditional pattern
recognition theories and algorithms, and poses totally new theoretical/computational
questions and challenges.
The aim of this workshop is to consolidate research efforts in this area, and to provide
an informal discussion forum for researchers and practitioners interested in this important yet diverse subject.
The discussion will revolve around two main themes, which basically correspond to the two
fundamental questions that arise when abandoning the realm of vectorial, feature-based
representations, namely:
* How can one obtain suitable similarity information from data representations that are more powerful than, or simply different from, the vectorial ?
* How can one use similarity information in order to perform learning and classification tasks?
We aim at covering a wide range of problems and perspectives, from supervised to unsupervised learning, from generative to discriminative models, and from theoretical issues to real-world practical applications.
Accordingly, topics of interest include (but are not limited to):
* Embedding and embeddability
* Graph spectra and spectral geometry
* Indefinite and structural kernels
* Game-theoretic models of pattern recognition
* Characterization of non-(geo)metric behaviour
* Foundational issues
* Measures of (geo)metric violations<
* Learning and combining similarities
* Multiple-instance learning
* Applications

14th International Workshop on Combinatorial Image Analysis (IWCIA'11)
Madrid, Spain, May 23-25, 2011
IMPORTANT DATES:

IWCIA'11 is the fourteenth of a series of international meetings oncombinatorial image analysis.
Image analysis is a scientific discipline providing theoretical foundations and methods for solving problems appearing in a wide range of areas, as diverse as medicine, robotics, defence, and security. As a rule, the processed data are discrete; therefore, the "discrete approach" to image analysis appears to be a natural one and has an increasing importance. It is based on studying combinatorial properties of the considered digital data sets. Combinatorial image analysis often features various advantages (in terms of efficiency and accuracy) over the more traditional approaches based on continuous models requiring numeric computation.

SIMILARITY-BASED PATTERN RECOGNITION: CHALLENGES AND PROSPECTS
Saturday, August 21, 2010
Cesme, Izmir, Turkey
Traditional pattern recognition techniques are centered around the notion of feature. According to this view, the objects to be classified are represented in terms of properties that are intrinsic to the object itself. Hence, a typical pattern recognition system makes its decisions by simply looking at one or more feature vectors provided as input. The strength of this approach is that it can leverage a wide range of mathematical tools ranging from statistics, to geometry, to optimization. However, in many real-world applications a feasible feature-based description of objects might be difficult to obtain or inefficient for learning purposes. In these cases, it is often possible to obtain a measure of the (dis)similarity of the objects to be classified, and in some applications the use of dissimilarities (rather than features) makes the problem more viable. In the last few years, researchers in pattern recognition and machine learning are becoming increasingly aware of the importance of similarity information per se. Indeed, by abandoning the realm of vectorial representations one is confronted with the challenging problem of dealing with (dis)similarities that do not necessarily obey the requirements of a metric. This undermines the very foundations of traditional pattern recognition theories and algorithms, and poses totally new theoretical and computational questions.
The SIMBAD consortium is planning to hold a half-day meeting on these topics within the S+SSPR Workshop on the morning of Saturday, 21 August 2010. The workshop aims to explore the spectrum of alternative approaches, methodologies and challenges in the area, rather than detailed techniques. Contributions can be of two kinds:a) position papers that aim to stimulate discussion of the philosophy of approach underpinning the field, b) individual technical contributions on a focused topic.
Prospective particpants should send a one-page abstract to Marcello Pelillo by 1st June 2010.

Mining and Learning with Graphs Workshop 2010 (MLG-2010)
Washington, DC, July, 24-25
This years Workshop on Mining and Learning with Graphs will be held in conjunction with the 16th ACM SIGKDD Conference on Knowledge Discovery and Data Mining that will take place in July 25-28, 2010 in Washington, DC.
There is a great deal of interest in analyzing data that is best represented as a graph. Examples include the WWW, social networks, biological networks, communication networks, and many others. The importance of being able to effectively mine and learn from such data is growing, as more and more structured and semi-structured data is becoming available. This is a problem across widely different fields such as economics, statistics, social science, physics and computer science, and is studied within a variety of sub-disciplines of machine learning and data mining including graph mining, kernel theory, statistical relational learning, etc.
The objective of this workshop is to bring together researchers from a variety of these areas, and discuss commonality and differences in challenges faced, survey some of the different approaches, and provide a forum to present and learn about some of the most cutting edge research in this area.

In Pattern Recognition, statistical and structural methods have been traditionally considered as two rather separate worlds. However, many attempts at reducing the gap between these two approaches have beendone. The idea inspiring these attempts is that of preserving the advantages of an expressive structural representation (such as a graph),while using most of the powerful, vector-based algorithms from Statistical Pattern Recognition.
A possible approach to this issue has been recently suggested by GraphEmbedding. The latter is a methodology aimed at representing a whole graph (possibly with attributes attached to its nodes and edges) as apoint in a suitable vectorial space. Of course the relevant property isthat of preserving the similarity of the graphs: the more two graphs areconsidered similar, the closer the corresponding points in the space should be.
Graph embedding, in this sense, is a real bridge joining the two worlds:once the object at hand has been described in terms of graphs, and the latter represented in the vectorial space, all the problems of matching,learning and clustering can be performed using classical Statistical Pattern Recognition algorithms.
The proposed contest aims at evaluating the effectiveness of the embedding process in the contest of a classical Pattern Recognition application.

CALL FOR PAPERS
Computer Vision and Image Understanding Special Issue on Graph-Based Representations
http://www.dsi.unive.it/~gbr/SpecialIssue
The manuscripts must be submitted by
**November 30, 2009**
Only electronic submissions will be accepted. Please submit through the Elsevier editorial system
Submission should conform to the standard guidelines of the Computer Vision and Image Understanding journal.
All submitted papers will be reviewed by at least three independent reviewers.
Graph-based representations are of pivotal importance in computer vision, pattern recognition and machine learning. They arise when the objects to be identified are decomposed into parts and relationships between them. Such representations are quite natural and find applications in low level image processing, such as segmentation or image filtering, and in high level vision tasks such as pattern matching. Graph representations also pose unique problems in machine learning, since they are non-vectorial in nature and require new methodology to be developed if they are to be learned from image data.
More generally, the strong and growing interest about graph based algorithms may be explained as follows: Todays pattern recognition tasks are less and less concerned with the analysis of a single image. Images are rather grouped in sequences (video) or in huge databases eventually disseminated over the Internet. This complex background for image analysis involves the use of many image features and the analysis of their relationships, which is typically a graph problem. Further, traditional feature-based approaches cannot satisfactorily deal with data that is naturally divided into part (e.g., shape or text analysis) or where contextual information is essential for the classification process. For these reasons the design of efficient graph-based algorithms for pattern recognition will certainly be one of the major challenge of the next decade.
The goal of this special issue is to solicit and publish high-quality papers that provide a clear picture of the state of the art of the use of graphs as a representational tool in computer vision and pattern recognition. We aim to appeal to researchers in computer vision who are making non-trivial use of graph algorithms and their underlying theory, and also to interest theoretical computer scientists in the graph problems that arise in vision. Papers are solicited that address theoretical as well as practical issues related to the Special Issue s theme. Topics of interest include (but are not limited to):
- Graph matching;
- Graph-based image segmentation;
- Irregular (graph) pyramids;
- Graph representation of shapes;
- Graph based learning;
- Graph learning and clustering;
- Graphs vs rigid structures (quadtrees, pyramids);
- Graph transformations;
- Data mining with graphs;
- Graphs in constellation models;
- Graphs in computational chemistry and bioinformatics;

Image analysis is a scientific discipline providing theoretical foundations and methods for solving problems appearing in a range of areas as diverse as biology, medicine, physics, astronomy, geography, chemistry, robotics and industrial manufacturing. The workshop will focus on the analysis of digital images. Besides traditional approaches based on continuous models, which require numeric computation, and which always involve the problem of rounding and approximation, "combinatorial" approaches to image analysis (also named "discrete" or "digital" approaches) have been developed during the last 50 years. These latter approaches are based on studying combinatorial properties of the digital data sets under consideration and generally provide useful algorithms for image analysis which are more efficient and accurate than those based on continuous models. Some recent combinatorial approaches aim at a self-contained digital topology or/and geometry (independent of Euclidean space), which might be of interest and importance, not only for image analysis but also for example, within mathematical physics, for the development of digital models of space-time.
The purpose of the 13th IWCIA is to bring together scientists working on mathematical and computational foundations of digital image analysis as well as on applications, for the interchange of ideas, the reporting of new results and the discussion of open problems.

Knowledge Discovery is an interdisciplinary area focusing upon methodologies for identifying valid, novel, potentially useful and meaningful patterns from data, often based on underlying large data sets. A major aspect of Knowledge Discovery is data mining, i.e. applying data analysis and discovery algorithms that produce a particular enumeration of patterns (or models) over the data. Knowledge Discovery also includes the evaluation of patterns and identification of which add to knowledge. This has proven to be a promising approach for enhancing the intelligence of software systems and services. The ongoing rapid growth of online data due to the Internet and the widespread use of large databases have created an important need for knowledge discovery methodologies. The challenge of extracting knowledge from data draws upon research in a large number of disciplines including statistics, databases, pattern recognition, machine learning, data visualization, optimization, and high performance computing, to deliver advanced business intelligence and web discovery solutions.
Information retrieval (IR) is concerned with gathering relevant information from unstructured and semantically fuzzy data in texts and other media, searching for information within documents and for metadata about documents, as well as searching relational databases and the Web. Automation of information retrieval enables the reduction of what has been called "information overload".Information retrieval can be combined with knowledge discovery to create software tools that empower users of decision support systems to better understand and use the knowledge underlying large data sets.
