CIVR 2009

Image and Video retrieval have now reached a state where successful techniques and applications start flourishing. The ACM International Conference on Image and Video Retrieval (ACM-CIVR) series of conferences is the ideal opportunity to present and encounter such developments. Originally set up to illuminate the state-of-the-art in image and video retrieval throughout the world, it is now a reference event in the field where researchers and practitioner exchange knowledge and ideas.

CIVR2009 is seeking original high quality submissions addressing innovative research in the broad field of image and video retrieval. We wish to highlight significant contributions addressing the main problem of search and retrieval but also the equally important related issues of multimedia content management, user interaction and community-based management.

Topics of interest include but are not limited to:

* Content-based indexing, search and retrieval of images and video * Image/video search and browsing on the Web * Advanced descriptors and similarity metrics for audio and video * Multimedia content analysis and understanding * Semantic retrieval of images and video * Learning and relevance feedback in image/video retrieval * Query models, paradigms, and languages for image/video retrieval * Human perception based image/video retrieval * Studies of information-seeking behaviour among image/video users * Affective/Emotional interaction or interfaces for image/video retrieval * HCI issues in image/video retrieval * Evaluation of image and video retrieval systems * High performance image/video indexing algorithms * Database architectures for image/video retrieval * Novel image data management systems and applications * Community-based image and video management * Retrieval from multimodal lifelogs * Interaction with medical image databases * Satellite imagery analysis/retrieval * Image/Video summarization and visualization
