IJIM emphasises the extent to which image processing technology and data mining can help specialists in understanding and analysing complex images. Image mining aims at advancing traditional data mining from unstructured data to structured data. IJIM focuses on methodologies for extracting useful knowledge from images, and on the progress of diverse disciplines such as artificial intelligence, machine learning, medical imaging, and other related topics.
Topics covered include
- Medical image and signal analysis
- Volumetric image analysis
- Data mining of biological databases
- Image indexing
- Image clustering
- Biomedical information retrieval
- Biomedical information extraction
- Relation extraction in biological databases
- Content-based image retrieval and image mining
- Semantic-based image mining
- Image mining in medical and healthcare informatics
- Pattern recognition techniques in the image mining environment
- Image models, representations and features
- Image databases
- Image knowledge bases
Objectives
The objective of IJIM is to establish an effective communication channel between researchers, developers and professionals from both academia and the industry so that they can report the latest scientific and theoretical advances in image mining and its applications. It also aims to reveal useful information to specialists, allowing them to extract implicit knowledge, uncover new relationships and the like which are not explicitly expressed in images. This information can be used to make prognoses and to then anticipate human or system behaviours. Developments in this field will help to intensify interdisciplinary discovery.
Readership
IJIM provides a vehicle to help professionals, engineers, academics and researchers working in the field of computer science and biomedical engineering to disseminate information and to learn from each other's work.
Contents
IJIM publishes high-quality original papers, review articles and technical reports. Conference papers may be accepted if they are substantially extended. Special issues devoted to important topics in image mining will also occasionally be published.
