PRELIMINARY ANNOUNCEMENT

SUMMER SCHOOL

ON

MATHEMATICAL MORPHOLOGY

Organized by

Centre for Mathematical Morphology

Mines Paristech/ARMINES

Fontainebleau, France.

March 26 - 30, 2012


OVERVIEW

The Centre for Mathematical Morphology (CMM), specialized in image processing, is an ARMINES - Mines Paristech joint research centre. The CMM, founder of Mathematical Morphology theory, has acquired a leading position in theoretical foundations, efficient algorithms design and resolution of applications involving image processing in the bio-medicine, material sciences and multimedia fields. This course gives a comprehensive presentation of the morphological tools. Filtering and segmentation techniques are addressed, in 2D or 3D, for grey-tone or colour images, for still images or sequences as well as related techniques necessary to develop successful applications. The course is organised during five full days, in a single week : lectures in the morning (9h-12h30), and practical training in the afternoon (14h-17h30). The practical training is performed with Morph-M, a multi-platform Mathematical Morphology software, developed and used in most CMM research projects. Demonstration will reinforce pedagogical aspects of the course.

PRELIMINARY PROGRAM

You can find the program here.
A wide range of operators will be addressed, starting from the basic morphological erosion and dilation up to current research developments such as numerical residues or hierarchical segmentation. The following topics will be addressed:
All these notions will be illustrated through many examples, chosen from different application domains: bio-medicine, material science, scene analysis, multimedia, etc.
  The manipulation of images during practical training in the afternoon allows a full understanding of the studied notions.

LANGUAGE

In 2012 the course will be held in English.

REGISTRATION

Download the following registration form and send it back together with the payment, labeled to ARMINES.
  You can pre-register! Without any commitment on your part. Just send us an e-mail. It would help us organizing this summer school.
  Come with your own images! You can test the notions studied in this course on your own images. During practical training, in the afternoon, you can try Morph-M on your own images, so that you see the usefulness of the course on your own problem. You can also send us your images before the course. We would have time to imagine a solution to your problem.
  Cancellation Cancellations after September the 5th will be charged 20% of the participation fees, to cover reproduction and pedagogical material rental.

Fees

     1600 euros before tax, for all registrations BEFORE February 10th
     1800 euros before tax, after this date
     half price for students

Registration will be effective only after fee payment.
The fees include the course, the slides (paper or CD-ROM) and lunches. Dinner, travel expenses and accommodation are not included.
