Every aspect of modern society has been affected by the data revolution.
Cheap collection, storage and transmission of vast amounts of information
have revolutionized the practice of science, technology and business.
Ideas from various disciplines have been deployed to help in the task
of designing computer systems that can automatically detect and exploit
useful regularities (patterns) in general types of data. This is the
second meeting of a series devoted to pursuing a unified theoretical
description of the various branches of Pattern
Analysis (The Analysis of Patterns). These include statistical approaches
to pattern recognition, combinatorical approaches to pattern matching,
grammatical representations of structures, and many more fields of mathematics
and computer science. In all these diverse fields, there is a fundamental
unity in goals and methods that we aim at emphasizing. The meeting is
interdisciplinary in nature, and can be seen both as a School for advanced
students, and as a Workshop for researchers. Leading researchers in various
subfields of pattern analysis will hold tutorials on their subject area,
while new ideas will be presented in poster sessions, discussions and
short seminars. Students in machine learning, pattern recognition, statistics,
optimization, data mining, bioinformatics, are particularly encouraged
to apply.
