The 16^th International Conference of Stereology and Image Analysis (ICSIA-2023) will be held at Shaanxi Guest House, Xi'an City, P. R. China, from October 27 to October 30, 2023. It is the 16^th quadrennial Congress of the International Society for Stereology and Image Analysis (ISSIA).

Aims

ISSIA is an international scientific society aiming to promote stereology and image analysis in a wide range of disciplines. The purpose of the ISSIA is to promote the exchange and dissemination of information on stereology amongst persons of various scientific disciplines and countries.

The members of ISSIA are coming from many different fields of science such as mathematics, biomedicine, computer science, material science, statistics, geology, stochastic geometry, etc. A main concern of the ISSIA is the practical applications of stereology in Imaging Technique, Image Analysis and Processing, Stochastic Geometry, Mathematical Morphology, Pattern Recognition, Fractal Geometry and other fields.

The aims of the ICSIA-2023 is to bring together leading scientists working with the development and application of recent stereological methods and image analysis.

The congress program will include Keynote Speakers, Invited Lectures, Contributed Talks and Posters.

Authors are invited to submit manuscripts that present original unpublished research in all areas of stereology or image analysis. Work focusing on emerging methods and applications is especially welcome.
