Image and Video Retrieval: 4th International Conference图像与视频检索/2005年国际会议录

constitutes the refereed proceedings of the 4th International Conference on Image and Video Retrieval, CIVR 2005, held in Singapore, in July 2005. The 20 revised full papers and 42 poster papers presented together with an introduction and 4 invited papers were carefully reviewed and selected from 128 submissions. Besides the invited and industrial presentations the papers are organized in topical sections on video retrieval techniques, video story segmentation and event detection, semantics in video retrieval, image indexing and retrieval, image/video annotation and clustering, interactive video retrieval and others, image/video retrieval applications, and two sections comprising the poster presentations on video processing, retrieval and multimedia systems and on image feature extraction, indexing and retrieval.

The LNCS series reports state-of-the-art results in computer science research,development,and education,at a high level and in both printed and electronic form.Enjoying tight cooperation with the R&D community,with numerous individuals,as well as with prestigious organizations and societies,LNCS has grown into the most comprehensive computer science resarch forum available.
The scope of LNCS,including its subseries LNAI,spans the whole range of computer science and information technology including interdisciplinary topics in a variety of application fields.The type of material publised traditionally includes.
-proceedings(published in time for the respective conference)
-post-proceedings(consisting of thoroughly revised final full papers)
-research monographs(which may be basde on outstanding PhD work,research projects,technical reports,etc.)
