The seventh International Conference on Image Processing Theory, Tools and Applications (IPTA 2017)will be held on November 28th to December 1st 2017, in Montreal, Canada. The second-largest city in Canada, Montreal is an island on the St-Lawrence river known for its exquisite cuisine, vibrant nightlife, festivals, cultural diversity and European flair. The conference is expected to provide researchers around the world the opportunity to interact and present their latest advanced research in the areas of image and video processing. The topics of interest for IPTA 2017 include, but are not limited to:
− image and video processing, coding and compression;
− machine learning methods for image and video analysis;
− pattern recognition: detection, clustering, indexing, classification and fusion;
− computer vision: 2D and 3D perception, segmentation, shape representation, motion
and tracking;
− applications: action, event and gesture recognition, affective computing, biometrics,
document analysis, graphics, medical image analysis, remote sensing, robotic vision, and video surveillance.
