Summary

Nowadays the use of digital images and videos has been extended to different fields as surveillance, manufacturing, medicine, agriculture, machine/robot vision, pattern recognition etc. They are easy to obtain from various environments, and it is necessary to recognize the objects contained in the scenes. In order to achieve this goal, several computational approaches have been developed However, considering the technological advances problems as image size, noise, illumination and security, it is necessary to develop new methodologies and to improve the classical algorithms. On the other hand, a tendency is that the computer vision and image processing systems should be able to automatic extract the desired features for a particular task. Computational Intelligence (CI) approaches are alternative solutions for automatic computer vision and image processing systems; they include the use of tools as machine learning and soft computing. Researchers from all over the world are working hard creating new algorithms that combine the methods provided by CI approaches to solve the problems of image processing and computer vision.

This proposal aims to provide a collection of high-quality research works that address broad challenges in both theoretical and application aspects of soft computing and machine learning in image processing and computer vision. We invite researchers and colleagues to contribute original work that will stimulate the continuing effort on the application of CI approaches to solve image-processing and computer vision problems.

We invite all researchers and practitioners who are developing algorithms, systems, and applications, to share their results, ideas, and experiences.

    Abstract Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD) is a developmental disorder whose symptoms become noticeable in early years of the age though it can be present in any age group. ASD is a mental disorder which affects the communicational, social and non-verbal behaviors. It cannot be cured completely but can be reduced if detected early. An early diagnosis is hampered by the variation and severity of ASD symptoms as well as having symptoms commonly seen in other mental disorders as well. Nowadays, with the emergence of deep learning approaches in various fields, medical experts can be assisted in… More >

    Abstract In Agriculture Sciences, detection of diseases is one of the most challenging tasks. The mis-interpretations of plant diseases often lead to wrong pesticide selection, resulting in damage of crops. Hence, the automatic recognition of the diseases at earlier stages is important as well as economical for better quality and quantity of fruits. Computer aided detection (CAD) has proven as a supportive tool for disease detection and classification, thus allowing the identification of diseases and reducing the rate of degradation of fruit quality.
