Current developments in new image processing hardware, the advent of multisensor data fusion, and rapid advances in vision research have led to an explosive growth in the interdisciplinary field of imaging science. This growth has resulted in the development of highly sophisticated mathematical models and theories. 

The Centre for Mathematical Imaging and Vision (CMIV) emphasizes the role of mathematics as a rigorous basis for imaging science. Emphasis is placed on innovative or established computational mathematical and statistical techniques applied to vision and imaging problems in a novel way, as well as new developments and problems in mathematics arising from these applications.
