This volume collects the papers accepted for presentation at the 11th Inter- tionalConferenceonAdvancedConceptsforIntelligentVisionSystems (ACIVS 2009). Following the ?rst meeting in Baden-Baden (Germany) in 1999, which was part of a large multiconference, the ACIVS conference then developed into an independent scienti?c event and has ever since maintained the tra- tion of being a single track conference. ACIVS 2009 attracted computer sci- tists from 25 di?erent countries, mostly from Europe, but also from Australia, New-Zealand and Japan, and from the USA and Mexico. Although ACIVS is a conference on all areas of image and video processing, submissionstendtogatherwithincertainmajor?eldsofinterest.Aswasthecase lastyear, aboutaquarteroftheselectedpapersdealwithimageandvideocoding and processing, including ?ltering and restoration and low-level analysis.

We would like to thank the invited speakers Steve Sangwine (University of Essex, UK) and Jordi Inglada (CNES, France) for enhancing the technical program with their presentations.
