The Scope of the Conference

The automatic analysis of images and signals in medicine, biotechnology, System Biology, chemistry, biometry, drug discovery and information robots is a challenging and demanding field. Signal-producing procedures by microscopes, spectrometers and other sensors have found their way into wide fields of medicine, biotechnology, economy and environmental analysis. With this arises the problem of the automatic mass analysis of signal information. Signal-interpreting systems which generate automatically the desired target statements from the signals are therefore of compelling necessity. The continuation of mass analyses on the basis of the classical procedures leads to investments of proportions that are not feasible. New procedures and system architectures are therefore required. The scope of conference is to bring together researcher, praticioners and industry people who are dealing with mass analysis of images and signals to present and discuss recent research in these fields.

The goals of this conference are to:

* provide a forum for identifying important contributions and opportunities for research
on mass data analysis of signals and images,
* promote the systematic study of how to apply automatic signal/image analysis and
interpretation procedures to that field
* show case applications of mass data analysis in biology, medicine, and chemistry.

Topics of interest include (but are not limited to):

Applications in Medicine, r/g/b Biotechnology, Food Industries and Dietetics,
Biometry and Agriculture
Techniques and developments of signal and image producing procedures
