History of ICVGIP

     Computer Vision, Graphics and Image Processing are some of the most actively pursued research area of information technology and there exists a large community exploring various aspects of this area in India. A common platform where the entire community could gather and exchange ideas was a must. This would provide impetus to workers in the field to further research as well as give directions to R&D activities in the country. The Indian Conference on Computer Vision, Graphics and Image Processing is a forum to bring the researchers and practitioners of these allied areas togather under one umbrella.
     ICVGIP'02 is the III^rd in the series of the Conferences organized under the banner of the `Indian Conference on Computer Vision, Graphics and Image Processing'. It continues the tradition of ICVGIP 98 held at IIT Delhi and ICVGIP 2000 held at IISc, Bangalore.
     Both ICVGIP 98 & ICVGIP 2000 received excellent response in terms of submissions from across the globe. Similar response is anticipated for ICVGIP 2002.
