We invite you to participate in the First International Conference on Scale Space Methods and Variational Methods in Computer Vision (SSVM) which will be held in Ischia, Italy, on May 30 - June 2, 2007.
This international conference is a joint edition of the 6th Scale Space and the 4th VLSM and it will be a first attempt to bring together two different communities with joint research interests, the one of scale space analysis and the one of variational, geometric and level set methods and their applications in image interpretation and understanding.
Such a conference would serve several purposes: international researchers and students would be exposed to state-of-the-art research on mathematical, physical and computational aspects of imaging, computer vision, graphics and inverse problems with applications.

Selected papers will appear in a special issue of the International Journal on Computer Vision. A prise will be awarded to the best student paper. The final program will consist of invited talks, oral presentations, and a poster session.
