Manuscript for Post-Meeting Proceedings: 7 January 2013

The goal of this conference is to explore the role of human perception and cognition in the design, analysis, and use of electronic media systems. Over the years, it has brought together researchers from a wide variety of disciplines, from all over the world, for a rich and lively exchange of ideas. We believe that understanding that the human observer is fundamental to the advancement of electronic media systems, and that advances in these systems and applications are driving new research into the perception and cognition of the human observer.  

This year celebrates the 25th Anniversary for HVEI - The International Conference on Perception and Cognition in Electronic Imaging 

This year, we will be organizing several Special Sessions, centered on areas where HVEI papers have had significant impact in the field of Electronic Imaging. Each session will be kicked off by an invited paper that reviews our scientific and technical contributions within an historical context, and projects future directions. Please submit abstracts for these sessions, or for any of the other areas referenced below.

Special Sessions for the 25th Anniversary Celebration: 

  • Visual Contributions to Image Coding
  • Advances in Perceptual Image Quality Research
  • Attention, Search, and Vigilance
  • Perceptual Advances in Texture and Feature Analysis
  • Color perception and analysis
  • Perception-Based Visualization and Visual Analysis
  • Brain Modeling and Imaging
  • Multisensory Interactions
  • Image Understanding and Intelligence
  • Perception, Art, and Design

Additional Conference Topics: 

Fundamental and applied research in human perception and cognition, perceptually-based algorithms and methods, covering the full range of imaging media and technologies.

  • Human perception and cognition, including psychophysical, neurophysiological, and computational approaches
    • spatial, temporal, color, and stereo vision
    • visual, auditory, and haptic perception, and multi-modal interactions
    • attention, top-down and bottom-up processing, regions of interest
    • pattern recognition, visual organization, object perception, semantics
    • perceptual and computational models of color vision, effective use of color

  • Psychophysical modeling and evaluation of multimedia quality
    • human perception-based metrics and algorithms for still and video compression, rendering, enhancement and restoration
    • perceptual approaches to understanding and measuring quality for computer graphics, animation, visualization, and surface analysis

  • Image analysis and perception, including semantics, segmentation and feature analysis

  • Perceptual issues in visualization and virtual reality, including interactive exploration of data, visual organization, and 3D space perception

  • Art, aesthetics and emotion in electronic media

Abstract Notes: 

  • Additional .pdf files can be uploaded, such as a longer abstract, a full paper, or key illustrations
  • Only abstracts that make explicit reference to human perceptual or cognitive processes will be considered.
  • Abstracts will be peer reviewed according to these questions:
    • What problem does this work address?
    • How is this work novel or innovative?
    • How does it relate to the literature?
    • What are the experimental or analytical methods and procedures?
    • What are the main outcomes, observations, results?
    • Is this a significant contribution to perceptual science or perception-based imaging?

Be sure to sign up for the HVEI Banquet, Monday, 23 January, 2012. More details will be available with the Advance Program in September 2011.
