The Workshop on Mathematical Methods for Image Processing and Understanding will be held in conjunction with the 2023 International Conference on Computational Science and its Applications (ICCSA 2023) in Athens, Greece on July 3-6, 2023:

The Workshop is focused on the analysis of mathematical methods to solve theoretical and computational problems typical of image processing and understanding.

Themes and topics of the workshop

• Theoretical and numerical approximation for image processing

• Filter theory

• Space color definition

• Regularization techniques

• MAP estimation for image processing

• Image reconstruction

• Image enhancement

• Image rescaling

• Image segmentation

• Image registration

• Image clustering

• Image compactification

• Image demosaicing 

• Medical imaging

• Digital tomography

• Mathematical methods for virtual document restoration

• Pattern recognition

• Stereoscopic and optical flow estimation

Moreover, applications of digital image processing in different fields will be also considered.
