PATTERN RECOGNITION

Pattern Recognition is a mature but exciting and fast developing field, which underpins developments in cognate fields such as computer vision, image processing, text and document analysis and neural networks. It is closely akin to machine learning, and also finds applications in fast emerging areas such as biometrics, bioinformatics, multimedia data analysis and most recently data science. The journal Pattern Recognition was established some 50 years ago, as the field emerged in the early years of computer science. Over the intervening years it has expanded considerably.The journal accepts papers making original contributions to the theory, methodology and application of pattern recognition in any area, provided that the context of the work is both clearly explained and grounded in the pattern recognition literature. Papers whos primary concern falls outside the pattern recognition domain and which report routine applications of it using existing or well known methods, should be directed elsewhere. 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. Submitted papers should be single column, double spaced, no less than 20 and no more than 35 (40 for a review) pages long, with numbered pages.

模式识别是一个成熟而激动人心、发展迅速的领域，它支撑着计算机视觉、图像处理、文本和文档分析以及神经网络等相关领域的发展。它与机器学习非常相似，并且在生物特征学、生物信息学、多媒体数据分析和最近的数据科学等快速新兴领域也有应用。期刊模式识别是在大约50年前建立的，因为这个领域出现在计算机科学的早期。在过去的几年里，它有了很大的发展。该杂志接受在任何领域对模式识别的理论、方法和应用做出原创贡献的论文，前提是该工作的背景在模式识别文献中都有明确的解释和依据。主要关注的论文不属于模式识别领域，并且使用现有或众所周知的方法报告IT的常规应用程序的论文，应该指向其他地方。出版政策是：（1）出版经主管科学人员适当审查的新的原创文章；（2）审查该领域的发展情况；（3）涵盖模式识别感兴趣的特定领域的教学论文。将不时组织各种特殊问题，讨论对模式识别感兴趣的当前主题。提交的论文应为单列、双行距、不少于20页且不超过35页（40页供审查），并带有编号的页面。
