EURASIP JOURNAL ON IMAGE AND VIDEO PROCESSING
SPECIAL ISSUE ON IMAGE AND VIDEO PROCESSING FOR CULTURAL HERITAGE
CALL FOR PAPERS
----------------------
Digital imaging and 3D modeling are nowadays extensively employed to
capture, conserve, describe, and render cultural artifacts such as buildings
and monuments, archaeological sites, artworks, manuscripts, books, and other
objects of artistic, historical or archaeological interest. Computer vision,
graphics, image and signal processing are essential instruments for virtual
and physical restoration, analysis, and documentation of the artifact
content. The ultimate goal is to facilitate the access and study of our
cultural heritage by the public and scholars alike and to ensure its
preservation for the future. Visual processing of cultural heritage data
does not merely exploit and apply standard techniques, but often entails
original research specific to this domain.
The creation of digital libraries, delivering to the users' content that
fits their needs, requires the development of powerful indexing and
retrieval tools and creates a need for protection against improper usage and
preservation of integrity and authenticity. The often low quality and high
complexity of the content requires multimodal acquisition to enrich
documentation, recover masked information, and facilitate analysis. This
special issue aims to address these challenging issues. High-quality,
original contributions on the following (non exhaustive) list of topics are
solicited:
* High resolution 2D and 3D digital representations, correction of
degradations and quality evaluation
* Multimodal, multiresolution, and HDR imaging; data registration and fusion
* Signal, image processing, and 3D modeling to assist physical restoration
* Extraction, recognition, classification, and enhancement of features,
structures, and contents
* Digital restoration of damaged artworks (films, photographs, paintings,
frescos, manuscripts, etc.)
* Storage, handling, transmission, processing, and visualization of large
datasets
* Visualization of archaeological sites: temporal evolution, uncertainty in
the model, GIS layers
* Large-scale multimedia databases of artworks; archival, indexing, and
retrieval; copyright and IPR management
* Automatic artist/creator or artistic style recognition, detection of
forgery/fakes, and dating of artwork
* User-centered visual applications for museums, digital art repositories,
and edutainment (VR, AR, etc.)
