=============================================================

RecPad 2016 is the Portuguese Conference on Pattern Recognition,
sponsored by APRP (Portuguese Association for Pattern Recognition). It
is a one-day conference, with an invited talk and poster sessions.
RecPad 2016 will take place at the University the Aveiro (October 28th,
2016) and the invited speaker is Professor Joan Serra Sagristà from
Universitat Autònoma de Barcelona.

RecPad 2016 promotes the collaboration between the Portuguese scientific
community in the fields of Pattern Recognition, Image Analysis and
Processing, Soft Computing, and related areas spanning, but not limited
to, the following topics:

     Biometrics
     Character recognition
     Classification clustering ensembles and multi-classifiers
     Data mining and big data
     Feature extraction, discretization and selection
     Fuzzy logic and fuzzy image processing
     Gesture recognition
     Hybrid methods
     Image description and registration
     Image enhancement, restoration and segmentation
     Image understanding
     Information theory
     Intelligent systems
     Machine vision
     Neural network architectures
     Object recognition
     Pattern recognition applications
     Sensors and sensor fusion
     Soft computing techniques
     Statistical methods
     Syntactical methods

The works should be submitted as two pages extended abstracts for
consideration by the Technical Program Committee. The accepted papers
will be compiled and distributed only in electronic format. The program
of the conference is designed to allow traveling to Aveiro in the same
day of the conference.

It is an ideal time for socializing and sharing experiences between
young and senior researchers, showcasing their work and looking ahead to
the future.

We all look forward to seeing you in October.
