IbPRIA is an international event co-organised every two years, by the Spanish and Portuguese Associations for Pattern Recognition. IbPRIA is a single track conference consisting of high quality, previously unpublished papers, presented either orally or as a poster, intended to act as a forum for research groups, engineers and practitioners to present recent results, algorithmic improvements and promising future directions in pattern recognition and image analysis.

Scope
The conference are looking for new theoretical results, techniques and main applications on any aspect of pattern recognition and image analysis, including but not restricted to the following topics:

Pattern Recognition
Image Analysis
Computer Vision
Multimedia Systems
Statistical and Structural Pattern Recognition
Machine Learning and Data Mining
Bioinformatics
Image Coding and Processing
Shape and Texture Analysis
Information Systems
