DEADLINE EXTENSION: NOVEMBER 29, 2015

The objective of the QCAV 2015 conference is to provide a forum for researchers, engineers, suppliers and users of vision systems to present and discuss the state-of-the-art in machine and computer vision and image processing techniques, with an emphasis on quality control. The conference will also offer an opportunity to fill the gap between artificial vision and image processing community and people working in application fields.

The presentations will include contributed papers, poster sessions and invited speakers for state-of the-art or key-note talks in specialized subjects related to the conference topics. Papers describing original work concerning the theoretical and experimental aspects of image processing are invited. The International Scientific Committee invites authors to submit original unpublished paper proposals.
