CFP: EMMCVPR 2011

The 8th International Conference on Energy Minimization in Computer
Vision and Pattern Recognition (EMMCVPR)

July 25-27, 2011
Saint Petersburg, Russia

CALL FOR PAPERS

Energy Minimization Methods have become an established computational
paradigm in Computer Vision and Pattern Recognition. EMMCVPR is a
regular bi-annual international conference dedicated to advancing the
state-of-the-art regarding development and applications of energy
minimization methods. As with the previous editions, the proceedings
will be published by Springer in the Lecture Notes on Computer Science
(LNCS) series. The size of the paper will be limited to 14 pages. The
scientific program of EMMCVPR 2011 will include the presentation of
invited plenary talks and contributed research papers. For more
