Call for papers

Mathematical Methods in Biomedical Image Analysis (MMBIA) 2007 is the eight in a series of workshops on biomedical image analysis, to be held in conjunction with ICCV. This workshop is devoted to the presentation and discussion of new developments in computational techniques for the analysis of biomedical images. Our goal is to foster discussion of mathematical approaches to biomedical image analysis and modeling. The programme will consist of previously unpublished, contributed papers, with a substantial time allocated to discussion. In addition, we encourage submissions that address novel problems in bio/medical imaging that call for mathematical modeling or analysis.

The workshop proceedings will be published by the IEEE Computer Society. Accepted papers will be published in the ICCV 2007 CD-ROM Proceedings. Submitted papers may have a maximum length of 8 pages and must adhere to the same ICCV 2007 layout specifications as papers submitted to the main conference.

A list of possible themes, meant to be suggestive rather than exclusive:

• Computational Anatomical Atlases
• Curve/Surface/Volume Registration
• Inter and Intra-modal Image Registration
• Snakes, Splines and Deformable Models
• PDE-based Methods of Image Analysis
• Motion Analysis
• Multimodal Image Analysis
• Multidimensional Segmentation
• Surface, Volume and Deformation Models of Anatomy
• Multidimensional Data Visualization
• Feature extraction and pattern recognition
• Statistical Methods/Population-based analysis
• Image Guided Surgery/Therapy/Interventions
• Biomedical Image Databases
• Quantitative Imaging Biomarkers
• Functional/Molecular/Metabolic Image Analysis

Paper submission deadline: June 15, 2007
