Preface
These proceedings include the papers of all the oral presentations and posters
accepted at the 17th edition of the Iberoamerican Congress on Pattern Recog-
nition, held at Buenos Aires, Argentina, during September 3–6, 2012.
This congressis anopportunity for the exchangeanddiffusion ofknowledge,
as well as for the promotion of collaboration among different research groups
from Latin America, Spain, Portugal and the rest of the world.
Like previous editions, this event attracted contributions from many coun-
tries.ThepaperspresentedherecamefromArgentina,Austria,Belgium,Brazil,
Chile, Colombia, Costa Rica, Cuba, Czech Republic, Guadeloupe, India, Iran,
Italy,Malaysia,Mexico,TheNetherlands,NewZealand,Peru,Portugal,Russian
Federation, Slovenia, Spain, Thailand, Tunisia, USA and Uruguay.
The papers containedin this volume were selected by the ProgramCommit-
tee,consistingofLuisAlvarezLeon,LuisGomezDeniz,JulioJacobo,andMarta
Mejail. Each submitted paper was carefully reviewed by about three reviewers
in a double-blind peer-review process.
Six distinguished invited speakers gave two tutorials and four keynotes.One
ofthetutorialsaddressedthesubjectofhumanactivityrecognitionwith2Dand
3D cameras and was given by Zicheng Liu, from Microsoft Research; the other
tutorialtreatedthesubjectofMarkovrandomfieldswithemphasisonrestricted
Boltzmann machines, and was given by Christian Igel from the University of
Copenhagen.
A keynote on pattern recognition in transportation was presented by Jos´e
Antonio Rodriguez-Serrano, Research Scientist at the Xerox Research Centre
Europe(XRCE) Group. Another keynote on optimal anti-Bayesian statistical
pattern recognition was given by John Oommen from the School of Computer
ScienceatCarletonUniversity,Ottawa(Canada).“Robot,passmethescissors”!
wasakeynotethataddressedthe problemofrobotsassistanceinsurgery,itwas
presented by Juan P. Wachs from Purdue University. A keynote on multi-class
support vector machines was presented by Christian Igel from the University of
Copenhagen.
Akeynoteonsmoothsigneddistancesurfacereconstructionandapplications
was presented by Gabriel Taubin from Brown University.

pers will be included in the Special Issue onComputer Vision Applying Pattern
Recognition Techniques (Pattern Recognition), in the Special Issue on Robust
Recognition Methods for Multimodal Interaction (Pattern Recognition Letters),
intheSpecialIssueonReal-TimeImageandVideoProcessingforPatternRecog-
nition Systems and Applications (Journal of Real-Time Image Processing) and
in the IPOL Publications of Algorithms.
