SIBGRAPI 2012 - Conference on Graphics, Patterns and Images
SIBGRAPI 2012 - Conference on Graphics, Patterns and Images (formerly Brazilian Symposium on Computer Graphics and Image Processing) is the 25th edition of this conference annually promoted by the Brazilian Computer Society (SBC) through its special interest group on Graphics and Image Processing (CEGRAPI).

The conference started in 1988 as small symposium (“Simpósio Brasileiro de Computação Gráfica e Processamento de Imagens”) and has grown in importance each year. The proceedings are available at the SIBGRAPI Digital Library Archive, maintained by Instituto Nacional de Pesquisas Espaciais (INPE). From 1997 to 2008, the proceedings were published by IEEE Computer Society Press. Since 2009, they have been published by CPS. All these editions are available at IEEE Xplore. Moreover, since 2003, special efforts have been made to publish extended versions of the best papers in special issues of well-qualified journals of the related areas. Information on past SIBGRAPI events can also be found at the CEGRAPI committee page.

SIBGRAPI 2012 will be held on August 22-25, in the historical city of Ouro Preto, Minas Gerais, Brazil. Located 400 km north of Rio de Janeiro, 613 km northeast of São Paulo and 98 km south of Belo Horizonte, Ouro Preto was the main focal point of the period known as the Golden Age of Brazil. Considered as one of the best-preserved colonial cities in the world by UNESCO, Ouro Preto is known by its charming Baroque architecture and historical buildings. Researchers, students and professionals are invited to participate by submitting works in all areas of Computer Graphics, Image Processing, Computer Vision and Pattern Recognition.
