INTRODUCTION

Color perception plays an important role in object recognition and scene 
understanding both for humans and intelligent vision systems. Recent advances 
in digital color imaging and computer hardware technology have led to an 
explosion in the use of color images in a variety of applications including 
medical imaging, content-based image retrieval, biometrics, watermarking, 
digital inpainting, remote sensing, visual quality inspection, among many 
others. As a result, automated processing and analysis of color images has 
become an active area of research, which is witnessed by the large number of 
publications during the past two decades. The multivariate nature of color
image data presents new challenges for researchers and practitioners as the 
numerous methods developed for single channel images are often not directly 
applicable to multichannel images. 

The goal of this special session is to bring together researchers and 
practitioners working in the area of Color Image Processing. We are soliciting 
original contributions, which address a wide range of theoretical and practical 
issues related to the early stages of the color image processing pipeline 
including, but not limited to:

* Color Image Coding and Compression
* Color Image Quantization and Halftoning
* Color Image Filtering and Enhancement
* Color Morphology
* Color Edge Detection
* Color Image Segmentation
* Digital Camera Image Processing (Demosaicking, Zooming, Postprocessing, etc.)
* Multispectral Image Processing
* Applications and Future Trends

PAPER SUBMISSION

Prospective authors are invited to submit papers of no more than 10 pages 
including results, figures and references. In submitting a manuscript to 
ICIAP 2011, the authors acknowledge that no paper substantially similar in 
content has been or will be submitted to another conference during the ICIAP 
2011 review period. All papers, regardless to whether accepted as orals or 
posters, will appear in the symposium proceedings, which will be published by 
Springer-Verlag in the Lecture Notes in Computer Science (LNCS) series.

IMPORTANT DATES

* Submission of full-length papers: March 15, 2011
* Notification of acceptance: May 14, 2011
* Submission of camera-ready papers: May 31, 2011
