Introduction
Mathematical
Methods in Biomedical Image Analysis (MMBIA) 2008 is the ninth in a
series of workshops on biomedical image analysis, to be held in
conjunction with CVPR 2008
at Anchorage, Alaska. This workshop is devoted to the presentation and
discussion of new developments in computational techniques for the
analysis of biomedical images.
Call for Papers
Biomedical
image analysis is a fast evolving field driven by the advancement of
imaging modalities and high content screening techniques. This poses
challenges and also opportunities for the development of analysis
algorithms. The workshop will provide an interdisciplinary forum for
researchers involved in all aspects of the biomedical images analysis,
with the focus on new developments in computational techniques for the
analysis of biomedical image data. Our goal is to foster discussion of
mathematical approaches to biomedical image analysis and modeling in a
more focused manner than can be addressed in the main tracks of the
CVPR conference.
The workshop
will bring together researchers in computational vision, computational
biology, graphics and robotics communities interested in problems that
involve mathematical modeling or analysis in biomedical images. Unlike
previous workshops, we will expand the scope of the biomedical images
to include not only medical imaging data but also exciting molecular
and cellular imaging data arising from confocal
microscopes. It calls for original, high-quality submissions that
address innovative research and development of biomedical image
analysis. The final program will consist of previously unpublished and
contributed papers, with substantial time allocated to discussion.
Topics of
interests include but are not limited to:
- Computational
Anatomical Atlases
- Image/Curve/Surface/Volume Registration
- Multidimensional
Segmentation
- Snakes, Splines and Deformable Models
- PDE-based
Methods of Image Analysis
- Biomedical
Image Motion Analysis
- Multidimensional
Data Visualization
- Molecular and
Cellular Image Analysis
- Functional
and Metabolic Image Analysis
- Image Guided
Surgery/Therapy
- Biomedical
Image Databases / Biomedical Image Retrieval
- Feature
Extraction and Pattern Recognition
- Quantative
Imaging Biomarkers
- Diffusion
Tensor Image Analysis
- Applications
The workshop
proceedings will be published by IEEE Computer Society. In submitting a
paper to MMBIA, authors acknowledge that no paper of substantially
similar content has been or will be submitted to another conference or
workshop during the MMBIA review period.
Paper Submission
Blind review: MMBIA reviewing is double blind:
authors do not know the names of the reviewers of their papers, and
reviewers do not know the names of the authors. Please see the author
kit for detailed explanations of how to ensure this.
Formatting: Papers are limited to eight pages.
Please use the CVPR
author kit to format the papers. The workshop chairs reserve the
right to reject papers violating the paper length and the formatting
instructions outright, without review.
Submission: MMBIA is using an online submission
system. Please submit the papers through the online system.
Simultaneous submissions: In submitting a paper
to MMBIA, authors acknowledge that no paper of substantially similar
content has been or will be submitted to another conference or workshop
during the MMBIA review period.
Registration and Hotels
MMBIA2008 will be held in conjunction with CVPR 2008.
Please refer to the CVPR 2008
website for the location, registration and accommodation
information.
