The fifth International Conference on Image Processing Theory, Tools and Applications IPTA'15 aims at bringing together international researchers, innovators, educators, and practitioners in image processing to share their achievements, exchange their experience and discuss future orientations. The conference provides an excellent forum to meet and discuss various important issues on image processing and applications.

Papers describing general surveys, image processing fundamental theory, specific medical imaging applications, advanced prototypes, tools and methodologies are welcomed. Extended papers describing original contributions are encouraged in the conference topics mentioned above. Special sessions papers, dedicated to different conference topics are also welcomed.

Publication

All accepted papers and presented by one of the authors will be published and indexed by IEEE Xplore under an ISBN reference. Will be also indexed by Thomson Reuters Conference Proceedings Citation Index (ISI), Scopus and dblp Computer Science Bibliography.
