International Symposium on Signal Processing and its Applications, Sharjah, Vereinigte Arabische Emirate

ISSPA 2007 marks the 20th anniversary of launching the first ISSPA in 1987 in Brisbane, Australia&#046; Since its inception, ISSPA has provided, through a series of 8 symposia, a high quality forum for engineers and scientists engaged in research and development of Signal and Image Processing theory and applications&#046; Effective 2007 ISSPA will extend its scope to add the new track of information sciences that includes areas such as information security, cognitive systems, and geoinformatics&#046; Hence the intention that the previous full name of ISSPA will be replaced after 2007 with the following new full name: International Conference on Information Sciences, Signal Processing and their Applications&#046;<br><b>Keywords:</b> Filter Design Theory and Methods<br>Multirate Filtering & Wavelets<br>Adaptive Signal Processing<br>Time&#8211;Frequency/Time&#8211;Scale Analysis<br>Statistical Signal & Array Processing<br>Radar & Sonar Processing<br>Speech Processing & Recognition<br>Fractals and Chaos Signal Processing<br>Signal Processing in Communications<br>Signal processing in Networking<br>Multimedia Signal Processing<br>Nonlinear signal processing<br>Biomedical Signal and Image Processing<br>Image and Video Processing<br>Image Segmentation and Scene Analysis<br>VLSI for Signal and Image Processing<br>Cryptology, Steganography, and Digital Watermarking<br>Image indexing & retrieval<br>Soft Computing & Pattern Recognition<br>Natural Language Processing<br>Signal Processing for Bioinformatics<br>Signal Processing for Geoinformatics<br>Biometric Systems and Security<br>Machine Vision<br>Data visualization<br>Data mining<br>Sensor Networks and Sensor Fusion<br>Signal Processing and Information Sciences Education<br>Others<br>
