The human visual system as a functional unit including the eyes, the nervous system, and the corresponding parts of the brain certainly ranks among the most important means of human information processing. The e?ciency of the biological systems is beyond the capabilities of today’s technical systems, even with the fastest available computer systems. However, there are areas of application where digital image analysis systems produce acceptable results. Systems in these areas solve very specialized tasks, they operate in a limited environment, and high speed is often not necessary. Several factors determine the economical application of technical vision systems: cost, speed, ?exibility, robu- ness, functionality, and integration with other system components. Many of the recent developments in digital image processing and pattern recognition show some of the required achievements. Computer vision enhances the capabilities of computer systems • in autonomously collecting large amounts of data, • in extracting relevant information, • in perceiving its environment, and • in automatic or semiautomatic operation in this environment. The development of computer systems in general shows a steadily increasing need in computational power, which comes with decreasing hardware costs.

This volume constitutes the proceedings of the 5th International Conference on Computer Analysis of Images and Patterns (CAIP'93), held in Budapest, Hungary, in September 1993. Formerly, the events in this biennial conference series were thought as a forum where East European researchers and professionals from academia and industry had an opportunity to discuss their results and ideas with Western colleagues active in image processing and pattern recognition. Now, CAIP'93 has a much more international scope, and in the future these conferences will not any longertake place only in East European countries, but roam throughout whole Europe. Besides invited talks by Belikova, Gimel'farb, Haralick and Roska, the volume contains 114 contributions, either presented as lectures or posters and carefully selected by a highly competent international program committee from a total of some 230 submissions; thus the book gives a thorough survey on recent research results and their applications in image processing and pattern recognition. The proceedings is organized in 20 sections, for example on image data structures, image processing, edges and contours, Hough transforms and related methods, shape, motion, 3-D vision, character recognition and document processing, biomedical applications, industrial applications, and neural networks.

It was an honor and a pleasure to organize the 12th international conference on Computer Analysis of Images and Patterns (CAIP 2007) in Vienna, Austria. CAIP has been held biennially since 1985: Year Location Organizers 1985Berlin, Germany R. Klette 1987Wismar, Germany L.P. Iaroslavskii, A. Rosenfeld, W. Wilhelmi 1989Leipzig, Germany K. Voss, D.

Kropatsch, M. Kampel This year 251 full scienti?c papers were submitted of which 120 were - cepted based on the scienti?c reviews for presentation during the conference. Consequently the competition for acceptance in the ?nal program was tough. The accepted papers were presented during the conference either as oral pres- tations or as posters in the non-overlapping scienti?c program. Oral presen- tions allowed the authors to reach a large number of participants, while posters allowedfor more intense scienti?c interaction.We tried to continue the tradition of CAIP in providing a forum for scienti?c exchange at a high quality level. Three internationally recognized speakers accepted our invitation to present astimulatingresearchtopicthisyear:ZygmuntPizlo,PurdueUniversity;Arnold Smeulders, University of Amsterdam; and Steven W. Zucker, Yale University.

This book constitutes the thoroughly refereed proceedings of the 20th IAPR International Conference on Discrete Geometry for Computer Imagery, DGCI 2017, held in Vienna, Austria, in September 2017. The 28 revised full papers presented together with 3 invited talks were carefully selected from 36 submissions. The papers are organized in topical sections on geometric transforms; discrete tomography; discrete modeling and visualization; morphological analysis; discrete shape representation, recognition and analysis; discrete and combinatorial topology; discrete models and tools; models for discrete geometry.

It is both an honor and a pleasure to hold the 27th Annual Meeting of the German Association for Pattern Recognition, DAGM 2005, at the Vienna U- versity of Technology, Austria, organized by the Pattern Recognition and Image Processing (PRIP) Group. We received 122 contributions of which we were able to accept 29 as oral presentations and 31 as posters. Each paper received three reviews, upon which decisions were made based on correctness, presentation, technical depth, scienti?c signi?cance and originality. The selection as oral or poster presentation does not signify a quality grading but re?ects attractiveness to the audience which is also re?ected in the order of appearance of papers in these proceedings. The papers are printed in the same order as presented at the symposium and posters are integrated in the corresponding thematic session. In putting these proceedings together, many people played signi?cant roles which we would like to acknowledge. First of all our thanks go to the authors who contributed their work to the symposium. Second, we are grateful for the dedicated work of the 38 members of the Program Committee for their e?ort in evaluating the submitted papers and inprovidingthe necessarydecisionsupport information and the valuable feedback for the authors. Furthermore, the P- gram Committee awarded prizes for the best papers, and we want to sincerely thank the donors. We were honored to have the following three invited speakers at the conf- ence: - Jan P.
