SIAG on Imaging Science

Contents

Research Focus

In recent decades, the analysis of 2D and 3D images and video has become vital to many areas of science, medicine, engineering, manufacturing and entertainment. Typical objectives include image formation, compression, reconstruction, restoration, registration, motion recovery, tracking, feature extraction and semantic interpretation. Moreover, recent developments in the technology of imaging have also contributed to the explosive growth in the highly interdisciplinary field of "imaging science," generating new mathematical problems which cut across disciplines.

At the same time, increasingly sophisticated mathematical, statistical, and computational methods are being employed in these areas. The techniques utilized, besides those from traditional areas of mathematics, often originate in fields such as information theory, computer graphics, machine learning and speech technology, and include those based on linear transforms, harmonic analysis, nonlinear optimization, numerical linear algebra, integral equations, partial differential equations, differential geometry, statistical estimation and stochastic modeling.

Joining the Imaging Science SIAG

Membership in SIAG/IS is open to all members of SIAM. You can join online by filling out this form.

Mailing List

The activity group maintains a mailing list at siam-imaging@siam.org. Job openings, conference and short-course announcements, recent book publications and PhD thesis announcements are welcome along with other items of interest to the entire SIAM imaging community.

Both members and non-members can send messages to through the email above; posts are currently moderated by Justin Romberg and should be approved within 24 hours of submission. To sign up for the mailing list or to view the list archive, go to http://lists.siam.org/mailman/listinfo/siam-imaging.

SIAG/IS Conference

The SIAM Conference on Imaging Science has been held biennially since March 2002. The next meeting will be May 12-14, 2014 at Hong Kong Baptist University, Hong Kong.

Past meetings:

  • IS'12, Philadelphia, PA, May 20-22, 2012
  • IS'10, Chicago, IL, April 12-14, 2010
  • IS'08, San Diego, CA, July 7-9, 2008
  • IS'06, Minneapolis, MN, May 15-17, 2006
  • IS'04, Salt Lake City, UT, May 3-5, 2004
  • IS'02, Boston, MA, March 4-6, 2002

SIAM Imaging Science Prize

The SIAM Imaging Science Prize is awarded to recognize outstanding papers on the mathematical and computational aspects of imaging. The 2012 prize was awarded to Rodrigo Palma-Amestoy, Edoardo Provenzi, Marcelo Bertalmio, and Vicent Caselles for their work on color enhancement.

General information of the prize can be found on the SIAM website.

Elected officers for 2012-13

  • Chair: Christine De Mol
  • Vice Chair: Naoki Saito
  • Program Director: Fadil Santosa
  • Secretary: Justin Romberg
