CIARP 2005
X CIARP was organized by Cuban
Association for Pattern Recognition (ACRP) , Institute
of Cybernetics, Mathematics and Physics (ICIMAF) and Advanced
Technologies Application Center (CENATAV) . The congress was held at Occidental
Miramar Hotel in Havana , Cuba .
It was co-sponsored by the Portuguese
Association for Pattern Recognition (APRP), the Spanish Association for Pattern
Recognition and Image Analysis (AERFAI), the Special Interest Group of the Brazilian
Computer Society (SIGPR-SBC), and the Mexican Association for Computer Vision,
Neurocomputing and Robotics (MACVNR). XCIARP was endorsed by International
Association for Pattern Recognition .
We received contributions from 29 countries.
More than 200 papers were submitted, out of which 107 were accepted for publication
in the proceedings and for presentation at the conference. The accepted papers
were published by Springer Verlag in the volume Progress in Pattern Recognition,
Image Analysis, and Applications, LNCS 3773, edited by Alberto Sanfeliu and
Manuel Lazo-Cortés, who chaired the Congress together with Sergio Cano.
Three professors were invited to give
keynote addresses on topics in Pattern Recognition: Prof. Josef Kittler, Surrey
University, United Kingdom, presented a conference entitled "3D Assisted
2D Face Recognition: Methodology"; Prof. Alberto Del Bimbo, University
of Florence, Italy, addressed the "Automatic Annotation of Sport Video
Content"; and Dr. Eduardo Bayro Corrochano, Center of Research and Advanced
Studies, Guadalajara, Mexico, talked about "Conformal Geometric Algebra
for 3D Object Recognition and Visual Tracking Using Stereo and Omnidirectional
Robot Vision". Four tutorials were offered by these invited speakers and
by Prof. Marcia Ferreira from State University of Campinas, Sao Paolo , Brazil
.
X CIARP in Havana, on par with its predecessors,
drew together high quality contributions, inspiring invited talks, and exciting
discussions through participating groups, arranged in a flawless programme.
It has been a valuable experience for the participants, and maintained the reputation
of the Iberoamerican Congress on Pattern Recognition series as a highly recommended
event to participate to, especially for Iberoamerican researcher community.
During X CIARP was approved the proposal
by the National Institute of Astrophysics, Optics and Electronics (INAOE) from
Mexico for holding the 11 th Iberoamerican Congress on Pattern Recognition in
Cancún, México in November 2006.
