Announcement and Call for Papers
February 24-March 1, 1991 1991 SPIE/SPSE Symposium
San Jose Convention Center on Electronic Imaging
San Jose, California Science and Technology
Abstracts Due: July 30, 1990
EXTRACTING MEANING FROM COMPLEX DATA:
PROCESSING, DISPLAY, INTERACTION II
Conference Chair: Edward J. Farrell, IBM T.J. Watson Research Center
Cochairs: Joanna Alexander, David Sarnoff Research Center, H. Stephen

Media Laboratory
Sophisticated computations and measurements frequently result in complex
multidimensional data. To extract meaning from these data, the user has
a wide range of technologies at his/her disposal. However, interpretation
of complex data involves diverse disciplines, from data access and
storage to image formation and interactive interpretation. This conference
is a forum for engineers and scientists to broaden their technical
knowledge and present their current work. The focus will be on
interactive data display and visual interpretation; methods and systems
for day-to-day applications are of primary interest, not presentation
graphics. A key topic is the use of animation for visual data
interpretation.
The following list of subjects indicates the conference orientation
and is not intended to exclude relevant work:
- Volumetric visualization of 3-D scalar fields, interpretation of
multiple variable data, methods for 3-D time series.
- Representation of vector fields, dynamic imaging and interaction.
- Animation methods for data interpretation.
- Visual thinking.
- Interpretation of multidimensional, relational data.
- Systems for animation and stereo data display.
- Sound with images for data representation and interpretation.
- Effective devices and display interface for interactive
interpretation.
- Data display and interpretation aided by expert systems.
- Applications illustrating novel interpretation methods.
Conference papers will be published in a proceedings with color plates
and with a video supplement to present animation results. Prospective
authors should submit four copies of a 300-400 word abstract and a
brief professional biography by July 30. Final manuscripts are due
January 28, 1991. If a video is contributed, it will be due March 22, 1991.
Abstract, Application, Biography:
By July 30, 1990, SPIE must receive:
- 4 copies of the author application (available from SPIE)
- 4 copies of a brief professional biography
- 4 copies of a 200-300 word abstract, typed double-spaced on
8-1/2 x 11 paper.
Please list on the abstract and on the author form the exact order
of authors with the principal author first, followed by co-authors.
Give complete affiliation, complete mailing address, and phone number
for each author and co-author.

plus a brief discussion period (about five minutes). SPIE will
provide the following media equipment free of charge: 35mm
carousel slide projectors, overhead projectors, and electric
pointers. (it doesn't say "video equipment", but they've had
it the last several years)
Author Benefits:
Authors and Co-authors who attend the conference will be accorded
a reduced-rate registration fee, a copy of the proceedings in which
their papers appear, and other special benefits.
