SCOPE

The fifteenth 3IA conference on Computer graphics and Artificial Intelligence aims at providing an international place for researches to exchange novel ideas, challenges, and state of the art solutions in this evolving field.

ORIGIN AND EVOLUTION OF THE CONFERENCE

The 3IA Conference has been created 18 years ago by Dimitri Plemenos honoring chair of the 3IA 2013 event. After numerous editions in Limoges (FRANCE) the conference moved for five years in Athens (GREECE). For the next editions the conference will take place in different countries beginning this new cycle by the city of Toulouse in 2013 (FRANCE) and next will be held in Hamburg(GERMANY). Others countries are candidate for the following editions such as Canada, Spain and China and we hope that this new organization will increase the interest of researchers in this exciting field and the attraction for this dedicated event.
