| Description |
After successfully conducting the first International Conference on Multimedia and Content Based Information Retrieval in July 2008, it is planned to conduct the second International Conference on Multimedia and Content Based Information Retrieval in July 2010. There were 48 papers selected for oral presentation of around 250 papers received during the first conference. This conference has attracted academicians, practitioners and also very enthusiastic students. It is hoped that there will be very good response for this conference which is second in the series.
Multimedia system comprises of system level aspects that underpin digital media, including multimedia networks, wireless communication, middleware, signal processing, signal video and image compression and distributed system. Interactive Digital Multimedia involves a range of technologies and applications centered on the creation, encoding, transmission, storage, presentation, and analysis of multimedia data, as well as the study of human interaction with multimedia systems. There are numerous applications of interactive multimedia in learning, communication, medicine, arts and entertainment, and other areas. A multidisciplinary approach is essential to adequately prepare future generations of educators, researchers, policy makers, and practitioners in this broad environment.
The convergence of digital media, computing and communication has created new and exciting opportunities in science, engineering and the arts. Interactive digital multimedia involves a range of technologies and applications centered on creation, encoding, transmission, storage, presentation and analysis of multimedia data, as well as the study of human interaction with multimedia systems. Currently the retrieval of massive multimedia data brought in technical challenge in terms of its retrieval and other related aspects. In this context the subject of Content Based Image Retrieval (CBIR) plays a major role.
Image and video storage and retrieval continue to be one of the most exciting and fastest-growing research areas in the field of multimedia technology. However, opportunities for the exchange of ideas between different groups of researchers, and between researchers and potential users of image/video retrieval systems, are still limited. The International Conference on Content Based Image Retrieval (ICMCBIR-2010) is intended to expose the state of the art in multi media database and image retrieval between researchers and practitioners throughout the world. This conference aims to provide an international forum for the discussion of challenges in the fields of multi media database and image retrieval.

About ICMCBIR-2010
With the wide spread use of internet technology for day to day application it has become imperative to use optimal retrieval technologies like CBIR as applied to conventional as well as multimedia data. The explosive growth of data generation calls for utility of these technologies in various domains. The vistas thrown upon in the application of these areas calls for focused attention in Biometrics, Digital Image Processing, Medical Imaging, Remote Sensing, Telecommunication and Web Mining. This conference will address these issues in the emerging scenario available to us.
