Special Session: Evolutionary Computer Vision

2014 IEEE Congress on Evolutionary Computation (CEC 2014)
Part of 2014 IEEE World Congress on Computational Intelligence (WCCI2014 ?)
Beijing, China, 6-11 July, 2014

Computer vision is a major unsolved problem in computer science and engineering. Over the last decade there has been increasing interest in using evolutionary computation approaches to solve vision problems. Computer vision provides a range of problems of varying difficulty for the development and testing of evolutionary algorithms.

The theme proposed special session is the use of evolutionary computation for solving computer vision and image processing problems. This special session aims to bring together theories and applications of evolutionary computation to computer vision and image processing problems. Authors are invited to submit their original and unpublished work to this Special Session. Topics of interest include but are not limited to:

New theories and methods in different EC paradigms to computer vision and image processing including

Evolutionary algorithms such as Genetic algorithms, genetic programming, evolutionary strategy and evolutionary programming;
Swarm Intelligence such as particle swarm optimisation, ant colony optimisation, and differential evolution; and
Other approaches such as learning classifier systems, harmony search, and artificial immune systems.
Cross-fertilization of evolutionary computation and other techniques such as neural networks and fuzzy systems is also encouraged.

Applications in computer vision and image processing including

Edge detection in noisy images
Image segmentation in biological images
Automatic feature extraction, construction and selection in complex images
Object identification and scene analysis for medical applications
Object detection and classification in security scenarios
Handwritten digit recognition and detection
Vehicle plate detection
Face detection and recognition
Texture image analysis
Automatic target recognition in military services
Gesture identification and recognition
Robot vision

Important dates:

    * Paper Submission: 20 January 2014 2014 (Extended)
    * Decision Notification: 15 March 2014
