Image technology is a continually evolving field with various applications such as image processing and analysis, biometrics, pattern recognition, object tracking, remote sensing, medicine diagnoses and multimedia. Significant progress has been made in the level of interest in image morphology, neural networks, full color image processing, image data compression, image recognition, and knowledge -based image analysis systems.
Computer graphics has been mainly driven by engineering design processes and has established itself as a dominating methodology in computer aided design (CAD)....

ICIAR 2006, the International Conference on Image Analysis and Recognition, was the third ICIAR conference, and was held in P ovoa de Varzim, Portugal. ICIARisorganizedannually, andalternatesbetweenEuropeandNorthAmerica. ICIAR 2004 was held in Porto, Portugal and ICIAR 2005 in Toronto, Canada. The idea of o?ering these conferences came as a result of discussion between researchers in Portugal and Canada to encourage collaboration and exchange, mainlybetweenthesetwocountries, butalsowiththeopenparticipationofother countries, addressing recent advances in theory, methodology and applications....

The currant study was carried out at one of the most important regions of Egypt (Saint Katherine Protectorate, South Sinai) during the period from September 2008 to September 2009. The currant study aimed to estimate plant galls induction in SKP assimilated by the twenty one chosen localities. Two hundred and twenty three records of plant galls were found ten plant species belonging to 8 families in SKP. Every host plant species may has one or more parts that are subjected to gall formation.

The currant study was carried out at one of the most important regions of Egypt (Saint Katherine Protectorate, South Sinai) during the period from September 2008 to September 2009. The currant study aimed to estimate and assess the biological diversity of gall insects in SKP assimilated by the twenty one chosen localities. The study also aimed to investigate the impact of different ecological factors, such as altitude, vegetation cover on the temporal and spatial distribution of insect galls. Gall inducers diversity in SKP was calculated according to Simpson diversity index that clarified...
