Dear Colleague,

The Second International Conference on Advances in Signal, Image and Video Processing, SIGNAL 2017 (http://www.iaria.org/conferences2017/SIGNAL17.html) will take place next May in Barcelona, Spain and will include several special sessions, namely one on Time-constrained Signal, Image and Video Processing in Robotics.

This thematic track will provide an opportunity to bring together researchers with interests in signal processing applied to robots and autonomous systems. This special session aims to receive contributions regarding innovative concepts, methodologies and techniques in the field of robotics, computer vision and signal processing, as well applications of these developments to solving practical problems.

As chair of that special session, I would like to invite you to submit papers in the following and related areas:

* human-robot interaction * localization, mapping and navigation * vision based control * object detection, segmentation and categorization * semantic scene understanding and categorization * robustness and generalization of algorithms to conditions and environments * multimodal sensor fusion * sensor calibration * Signal Processing Architectures * real-time and efficient solutions for applications

*PRELIMINARY DATES*

* Paper submission: 3rd January, 2017 * Notification of acceptance: 3rd March, 2017 * Camera ready: 9th April, 2017

* CONTRIBUTION TYPES *

* Regular papers [in the proceedings, digital library] * Short papers (work in progress) [in the proceedings, digital library] * Posters: two pages [in the proceedings, digital library] * Posters: slide only [slide-deck posted on www.iaria.org] * Presentations: slide only [slide-deck posted on www.iaria.org] * Demos: two pages [posted on www.iaria.org]

* REVIEW PROCESS *

PAAMS welcomes the submission of application papers with preference to the topics listed in the call for papers. All submitted papers will undergo a thorough review process; each paper will be refereed by at least three experts in the field based on relevance, originality, significance, quality and clarity.

The papers must consist of original, relevant and previously unpublished sound research results related to any of the topics of the conference
