								Overview 
								  
								
								The Southwest Symposium on Image 
								Analysis and Interpretation (SSIAI) is a 
								biennial conference dedicated to all aspects of 
								computational analysis and interpretation of 
								images and video. SSIAI brings together 
								researchers and practitioners in academia, 
								industry, and government to share and discuss 
								the latest advances in this field. SSIAI 2012 
								will be held at the spectacular La Fonda on the 
								Plaza in Santa Fe, New Mexico, USA. The 
								symposium seeks original contributions reporting 
								novel research directions, results, and 
								applications.
