ISMM 2013

We are going to be organizing the 11th conference in a series dedicated to Mathematical Morphology. This is the main conference in the field, and many of the ideas within Mathematical Morphology were first presented there. I can’t count the number of times the proceedings for this series is mentioned in the reference list of my papers! The first call for papers just went out, I’m copying it here for anyone interested. For more information, visit the ISMM 2013 website.

                     11th International Symposium
                      on Mathematical Morphology
                           May 27-29, 2013

The  International Symposium  on  Mathematical Morphology  (ISMM)  has
established itself as the main scientific event  in  the  field.  This
edition of ISMM  will be the eleventh in the series  initiated in 1993
in Barcelona,  and has never been this far North before.  The goal  of
the  conference  is  to  bring  together  researchers,  students,  and
practitioners of  Mathematical Morphology,  to present and discuss new
advances in the field,  be they  purely  theoretical  developments  or
novel applications.

Proceedings will be published in Springer's  Lecture Notes in Computer
Science series.

------------------------

* Theory:   Morphology   on   complete  lattices   and   semilattices,
  Representation   of   morphological  operators,   Fuzzy  morphology,
