The wavelet transform, multiresolution analysis, and other space-frequency or space-scale = approaches are now considered standard tools by researchers in
image and = signal processing. Promising practical results in machine vision and = sensors for industrial applications and non
destructive testing have = been obtained, and a lot of ideas can be applied to industrial imaging = projects.
This
conference is intended to bring together = practitioners, researchers, and technologists in machine vision, = sensors, non
destructive testing, signal and image processing to share = recent developments in wavelet and multiresolution approaches. Papers emphasizing fundamental methods that are widely applicable to industrial = inspection and other industrial applications are
especially = welcome.
Papers are solicited but = not
limited to the following areas:
o New trends in wavelet and multiresolution approach, frame and overcomplete representations, Gabor = transform, space-scale and space-frequency analysis,
multiwavelets, = directional wavelets, lifting scheme for:
- sensors
- signal and image denoising, enhancement, = segmentation, image deblurring
- texture
analysis
- = pattern recognition
- shape recognition
- 3D surface = analysis, characterization,
compression
- acoustical signal processing
- stochastic signal analysis
- seismic = data analysis
- real-time
implementation
- image compression
- hardware, wavelet chips.
o
Applications:
- = machine vision
- aspect inspection
- character recognition
- speech enhancement
- robot vision
- image databases
- image indexing or retrieval
- data hiding
- image watermarking
- non destructive evaluation
- metrology
- real-time inspection.
o Applications in microelectronics manufacturing, web and paper products, glass, plastic, = steel, inspection, power production, chemical process,
food and = agriculture, pharmaceuticals, petroleum industry.
All = submissions will be peer reviewed. Please note that
abstracts must be at = least 500 words in length in order to receive full = consideration.

(either = orally or in poster format), and submit a full-length manuscript for = publication in the conference
Proceedings.
- By submitting = your abstract, you warrant that all clearances and permissions have been = obtained, and
authorize SPIE to circulate your abstract to conference = committee members for review and selection purposes and if it is accepted, to publish your abstract in conference announcements and publicity.
- All authors (including invited or solicited = speakers), program committee members, and session chairs are
responsible = for registering and paying the reduced author, session chair, program = committee registration fee. (Current SPIE
Members receive a discount on = the registration fee.)
* Instructions for = Submitting Abstracts via Web
- You are STRONGLY = ENCOURAGED to submit abstracts using the “submit an abstract”
link = at:
- Submitting directly on the Web ensures that your abstract will be immediately accessible by the conference chair for review through = MySPIE, SPIE’s author/chair web site.
- Please
note! When = submitting your abstract you must provide contact information for all = authors, summarize your paper, and identify the
contact author who will = receive correspondence about the submission and who must submit the = manuscript and all revisions. Please
have this information available = before you
begin the submission process.
- First-time users of = MySPIE can create a new account by clicking on the create new
account = link. You can simplify account creation by using your SPIE ID# which is = found on SPIE membership cards or the label of
any SPIE = mailing.
- If = you do not have web access, you may E-MAIL
each abstract separately to: =
abstracts@spie.org in ASCII = text (not encoded) format.
There will be a time delay for abstracts = submitted via e-mail as they will not be immediately processed for chair review.
IMPORTANT! To ensure proper processing of your = abstract, the SUBJECT line must include only:
SUBJECT:
SA109, = TRUCHETET, LALIGANT
- Your abstract submission = must include all of the following:
1. PAPER
TITLE
2. = AUTHORS (principal author first) For each author:
o = First (given) Name (initials not
acceptable)
o Last (family) Name
o Affiliation
o Mailing = Address

o Fax = Number
o Email Address
3. PRESENTATION = PREFERENCE "Oral Presentation"
or "Poster Presentation."
