ICA 2007
7th International Conference on
Independent Component Analysis
and Signal Separation
London, UK
9-12 September 2007
www.ica2007.org
The 7th International Conference on Independent Component Analysis and
Signal Separation (ICA 2007) will be held at Queen Mary, University of
London, from Sunday 9 September to Wednesday 12 September 2007.
Independent Component Analysis and Signal Separation is one of the most
exciting current areas of research in statistical signal processing and
unsupervised machine learning. Following the previous ICA conferences in
Aussois (France), Helsinki (Finland), San Diego (CA, USA), Nara (Japan),
Granada (Spain) and Charleston (SC, USA), this year the conference is
organized and sponsored by the ICA Research Network, an EPSRC-funded
network of researchers in over 25 UK institutions.
The Conference will include invited talks as well as oral and poster
presentations of refereed papers and special sessions. It will be
organized in a single track and will be selective.
Papers are solicited in all areas of independent component analysis and
signal separation, including blind source separation (BSS), as well
as semi-blind, non-blind, and model-based signal separation. Topics of
interest include (but not limited to) the following:
* Algorithms and Architectures: non-linear ICA, probabilistic models,
sparse coding, linear & nonlinear models, convolutive & noisy models;
* Theory: optimization, complex methods, time-frequency representations;
* Applications: audio, bio-informatics, biomedical engineering,
communications, finance, text, image processing, psychology;
* Emerging Technologies: analogue and digital VLSI implementations,
photonics;
* Functional Neuroimaging: EEG, ERP, MEG, fMRI, applications in
neuroscience;
* Speech and Musical Audio: source separation, denoising,
dereverberation, temporal models, computational auditory scene
analysis (CASA), beamforming;
* Visual and Sensory Processing: image processing and coding, image
separation.
All contributions must be original, and must not have been previously
published, nor be under review for presentation elsewhere. Detailed
instructions for submission to ICA2007, including formatting
instructions and templates, will be available from the conference
website at http://www.ica2007.org
Paper submission deadline (EXTENDED): 30 March 2007
