Dear Participant,

We would like to welcome you at GraphiCon'2010, a major international conference on Computer Graphics, Computer Vision, Image and Video processing in Russia. This anniversary 20th event will be hosted by the Saint-Petersburg State University of Information Technologies, Mechanics and Optics on September 20-24, 2010.

This year we have a strong program consisting of scientific papers, carefully selected by International Program Committee for oral presentations, young scientist school and special interest session on biometry. Keynote talks will be given by Dr. David Kirk (NVidia Fellow), Prof. Tomas Akenine-Möller (Lund University) and Prof. Marcus Gross (ETH Zurich).

The International Program Committee was formed of 56 members representing 14 countries all over the world. Being top experts in the respective areas, all of them have done a good job reviewing on average 6 papers out of 113 submitted. We express thanks to the committee members, who served at considerable personal sacrifice and with impressive collective wisdom. The final decision was based on at least two reviews of each manuscript and ended up with 48 works selected for oral presentation and 6 papers for biometry special session. Also we have decided to organize a young scientist school, where 15 papers will be presented.

Keeping traditions, this year GraphiCon has not only scientifical, but also extensive educational program consisting of 2 full-day tutorials and master classes for both undergraduate and PhD students, researchers and engineers of various companies that are interested in computer graphics topics. We would like to thank lecturers for their willingness to share state-of-the-art knowledge in the respective fields.
We would also like to thank our main sponsors - Intel Corporation, NVidia and Microsoft, volunteers organized by Graphics and Media Lab, LMSU, and everyone who made this event happen.

We do hope you will enjoy the conference,

Anton Konushin, on behalf of GraphiCon'2010 Organizing Committee
