ThisLNCSvolumecontainsthepaperspresentedatthe28thAnnualSymposium of the German Association for Pattern Recognition, DAGM2006, held during September 12-14, 2006 at Fraunhofer IPK in Berlin, Germany. This symposium was jointly organized by the three Fraunhofer Institutes HHI, IPK and FIRST, and it was a great honor for the organizers to host such a renowned, scienti?c event. In total, 171 papers from 29 countries were submitted, of which 76 (44%) were accepted. We would therefore like to thank all the authors for submitting theirworkandapologizethatnotallpaperscouldbeaccepted.Thisrecordn- ber of submissions is an acknowledgement of the high reputation of the DAGM Symposium but atthe sametime it wasa challengefor the ProgramCommittee, asallpaperswerereviewedbythreeexperts.Thereforeweareespeciallygrateful tothe62membersoftheProgramCommitteefortheir remarkablee?ortandthe high quality as well as the timely delivery of the reviews. Out of the 76 accepted papers, 31 were oral presentations and 45 were posters. However, this selection does not imply any quality ranking but re?ects the preference of the authors or the clustering of certain topics. It was also a special honor to have ?ve very renowned invited speakers at this conference: - GabrielCurio-Charit´ e, Bernstein Center for Computational Neuroscience, Berlin, Germany - ThomasHofmann - Technical University Darmstadt, Germany - ThomasHuang - Beckman Institute, University of Illinois, USA - SebastianThrun - Arti?cial Intelligence Lab, Stanford University, USA - PatriceSimard - Document Processing and Understanding (DPU) Group - Microsoft Research, Redmond, USA Thesespeakerspresentedtheirviewsonthestateoftheartinpatternrecognition and image processing.
