Video Message by Dr. Babak Najjar Arabi, Scientific member of the 11th National Conference and International Conference on Machine Vision and Image Processing

Message context :

 This year's 11th Iranian Machine Vision and Image Processing Conference, the first of its kind, is being held at the University of Tehran, College of Farabi in Qom, and I am very pleased to have been with and familiar with this conference since its inception. The first set of this conference was held in 2000 by Dr. Khalili at Birjand University.
 The fact is that specialized conferences such as machine vision and image processing conferences that focus on one area are, in principle, in a better position to compete with experts than conferences that cover a wide range of areas. Early on, conferences in Iran were usually large-scale conferences, such as the Iranian Electrical Engineering Conference, the Iranian Mechanical Engineering Conference, etc. But after a short while people saw that we needed more specialized conferences, especially Gradually, the fields of knowledge began to specialize ... and one of the first specialized conferences to take place in Iran was the Machine Vision and Image Processing Conference.
 This is a very important field: image and video are both signals that contain a lot of information, and we humans use the image to understand the surroundings, and about a quarter of the human brain processes the image. This shows us the importance of the image signal, and fortunately, as the overall computer and IT industry has evolved, as well as the science and technology of this industry has evolved, we are at a point where we can claim that our machines can somehow understand To find the picture and the scene. This has naturally been fueled in recent years; because processing power has gone up, data storage has gone up, everything is networked and everything is interconnected, processors and memory are all interconnected. And we have a lot of sensors, a good part of these sensors are image sensors, and we need to be able to process this information well.

The MVIP conference is talking about such things, and I think the field of image processing is a field that has grown tremendously, not only from 79 to now - 98, and almost 20 years - the fact is that I even think its growth will grow much faster in the next 40 to 50 years, and then conferences like this can serve as a platform for conflict of opinion between researchers working in these and related fields, and between people in the industry trying to develop applications so that they can Develop tools for machine vision and image processing.
