This volume consists of 72 papers from the 2005 conference on
digital imaging, intelligent recognition techniques, and computer aided
geometric design and graphics. The opening paper explores new
opportunities in 3D scene modeling for combinations of range data and
panoramic pan·o·ram·a n. 1. An unbroken view of an entire surrounding area.

3. images. Other topics include an active contour Active Contour, also called Snakes, are a framework for delineating an object outline from a possibly noisy 2D image.
In this framework, we attempt to minimize an energy associated to the current contour as a sum of an internal and external energy: model for
selective segmentation, attributed graph visualization Using the computer to convert data into picture form. The most basic visualization is that of turning transaction data and summary information into charts and graphs. Visualization is used in computer-aided design (CAD) to render screen images into 3D models that can be viewed from all of collaborative
workspaces A collaborative workspace or shared workspace is an inter-connected environment in which all the participants in dispersed locations can access and interact with each other just as inside a single entity. , detecting microcalcification clusters in digital mammograms,
perspective correct normal vectors for Phong shading In 3D graphics, a technique developed by Phong Bui-Tuong in the mid-1970s that computes a shaded surface based on the color and illumination at each pixel. Phong shading is more realistic than Gouraud shading, but requires more computation. It does not produce shadows or reflections. , and ship hull
