Wiamis 2009 is over
Wiamis 2009 is now over. We would like to talk all participants for making this year's edition a very succesful event. This website will be kept online for reference, but all interactive features have been disabled.
The International Workshop on Image Analysis for Multimedia Interactive Services (WIAMIS) is one of the main international fora for the presentation and discussion of the latest technological advances in interactive multimedia services. The objective of the workshop is to bring together researchers and developers from academia and industry working in all areas of image, video and audio applications, with a special focus on analysis.
