=====================================================================

CIARP'2010 will  be held  in São Paulo,  Brazil, from November  8th to
11th,  2010.  This  conference  is  supported  by  several  scientific
associations,  including: Cuban  Association  for Pattern  Recognition
(acrp),  International  Association  for Pattern  Recognition  (IAPR),
Mexican Association for Computer Vision, Neural Computing and Robotics
(MACVNR),  Portuguese  Association  for  Pattern  Recognition  (APRP),
Spanish  Association  for   Pattern  Recognition  and  Image  Analysis
(AERFAI),  Special  Interest  Group  on  Pattern  Recognition  of  the
Brazilian  Computer Society (SIGPR-SBC),  and Chilean  Association for
Pattern Recognition (ChAPR).

This conference will be a forum for the exchange of scientific results
and  experiences, as well  as the  sharing of  new knowledge,  and the
increasing  of the  co-operation  between research  groups in  pattern
recognition and related areas.


=====================================================================
The CIARP-IAPR Award to the best paper:

We are pleased  to announce that an award, consisting  of a cash prize
and a  certificate, will be given  to the author(s) of  the Best Paper
registered and presented  at CIARP 2010.  The aim of  this award is to
acknowledge and  encourage excellence  and originality of  new models,
methods  and techniques with  an outstanding  theoretical contribution
and practical  application to the field of  pattern recognition and/or
data mining.  The selection of the winner will be based on the wish of
the  author  to  be  considered  to  the  prize,  the  evaluation  and
recommendations  from  members  of   the  Program  Committee  and  the
evaluation  of   the  CIARP-IAPR  Award   Committee.  This  committee,
carefully chosen  to avoid conflicts  of interest, will  evaluate each
nominated paper  in a  second review process,  which will  include the
quality of the oral and/or poster presentation.
