Ninth IMDSP Workshop
March 3-6, 1996. Radisson Hotel
Belize City, Belize

Program Chair:

Edward J. Delp

The Image and Multidimensional Signal Processing Technical Committee of the
IEEE Signal Processing Society has established a tradition of biennial
workshops that have been intellectually stimulating and held in interesting
places. The Ninth Workshop, to be held in cooperation with the Society for
Imaging Sceince and Technology continues this tradition. It will be held in
Belize which is located on the Carib- bean Sea directly south of the
Yucatan Peninsula and east of Guate- mala, just two hours by plane from
Miami. Belize has a subtropical climate. The workshop will take place in
the dry season when tempera- tures will average 22C. There are beautiful
Mayan ruins in Belize and the longest barrier reef in the Western
Hemisphere. The workshop will be held in Belize City at the Radisson Hotel.


The theme of the workshop is ``Model-Based Methods in Imaging: From Content
to User.'' This was partly motivated by the NSF-sponsored workshop on
Future Directions in Signal Processing that was held in Keystone, Colorado
in November 1991. At this workshop, the task group in the IMDSP area
identified a need for more emphasis on model-based methods, including
models for signal content and models for the human viewer. In addition, it
was felt that there was a need for more work on image quality metrics. It
is the intention of this workshop to address these topics:

Physics-based models
Multiresolution models
Models for the human visual system
Color models
Image and video quality metrics
Image and video compression
Image and video analysis
Image rendering for printing and display Color imaging
Radar imaging
Medical imaging

Participation in the workshop will be both by invitation and applica- tion.
Prospective attendees will submit a 2-page summary in final form. If the
paper is accepted the summary will appear in the workshop digest as
submitted. Authors should obtain the author's kit via anonymous ftp to
skynet.ecn.purdue.edu (128.46.154.48) in the directory /pub/dist/imdsp96.
The author's kit provides complete information relative to the submission
process. It is the intention of the Committee to conduct all communication
with authors electroni- cally. Questions should be directed to
imdsp96@ecn.purdue.edu. The General Co-Chairs can be reached at:
