Pattern Recognition is the official journal of the Pattern Recognition Society. The Society was formed to fill a need for information
exchange among research workers in the pattern recognition field. Up to now, we ''pattern-recognitionophiles'' have been tagging along
in computer science, information theory, optical processing techniques, and other miscellaneous fields. Because this work in pattern
recognition presently appears in widely spread articles and as isolated lectures in conferences in many diverse areas, the purpose of
the journal Pattern Recognition is to give all of us an opportunity to get together in one place to publish our work. The journal will
thereby expedite communication among research scientists interested in pattern recognition.
We consider pattern recognition in
the broad sense, and we assume that the journal will be read by people with a common interest in pattern recognition but from many diverse
backgrounds. These include biometrics, target recognition, biological taxonomy, meteorology, space science, classification methods, character
recognition, image processing, industrial applications, neural computing, and many others.
The publication policy is to publish
(1) new original articles that have been appropriately reviewed by competent scientific people, (2) reviews of developments in the field,
and (3) pedagogical papers covering specific areas of interest in pattern recognition. Various special issues will be organized from
time to time on current topics of interest to Pattern Recognition.
