ICPRAM 2012

Conference Name: 1st International Conference on Pattern Recognition Applications and Methods (ICPRAM)

Venue: Vilamoura, Algarve, Portugal

Event Date: 6-8 February, 2012

SCOPE

The International Conference on Pattern Recognition Applications and Methods would like to become a major point of contact between researchers, engineers and practitioners on the areas of Pattern Recognition, both from theoretical and application perspectives.

Contributions describing applications of Pattern Recognition techniques to real-world problems, interdisciplinary research, experimental and/or theoretical studies yielding new insights that advance Pattern Recognition methods are especially encouraged.
