The Fifth International Symposium CompIMAGE16 - Computational Modeling of Objects Presented in Images: Fundamentals, Methods, and Applications, will be held on September 21-23, 2016, in Niagara Falls, USA. The Symposium will include keynote talks, contributed papers, short communications, and tutorials.


      Deadline for short communications (up to 4 pages): August 1, 2016


PUBLICATIONS:
Short communications will be made available at the symposium. After the symposium, the authors will have the possibility to submit full papers, which will pass peer-review process to be included in the proceedings published by Springer in LNCS series.  
After the symposium, all authors will be invited to submit extended versions of the papers to a special thematic book published by Springer in the book series "Lecture Notes in Computational Vision and Biomechanics." 
A dedicated special issue of the Taylor & Francis International Journal "Computer Methods in Biomechanics and Biomedical Engineering: Imaging & Visualization" will be published with substantially extended versions of the best works presented at the symposium.
