Hong Kong Society for
Multimedia and Image Computing

Recent advances in the fields of multimedia and image computing are beginning to show how valuable these technologies can be, especially when applied to business, industrial and healthcare communities under the auspices of office automation, document analysis, geographical information systems, diagnostic imaging, and computer-aided design and manufacturing.

The Hong Kong Society for Multimedia and Image Computing (HKSMIC) was established in November, 1992 as a non-profit organisation. The main objective of the Society is to promote and to advance the theory and practice of multimedia and image computing in Hong Kong. We hope to achieve this objective through organising conferences, seminars, workshops and providing a forum for practitioners and academics to exchange views and experience.

The Society is a member of the International Association of Pattern Recognition (IAPR), a major international organisation for image computing which includes image analysis, computer graphics and related topics. It is hoped that the Society will become a focal point for all practitioners, academics, users, and vendors working in the field of multimedia and image computing in Hong Kong.
