Welcome

The EURASIP - IEEE SPS Summer School on Remote Sensing and Microscopy Image Processing (SSRM) will be held between 29 July and 2 August 2024 in Veszprem, Hungary - the 2023 European Capital of Culture.

The summer school is dedicated to Josiane Zerubia (INRIA, FR) at the occassion of her 67th birthday and for her continuous support of many members of the Hungarian image processing community during her long carreer in image processing.

SSRM is organized for graduate and PhD students as well as postdocs and young researchers from all over the world!

The lectures will be given by world renowned experts from both academia and industry, and will cover theoretical and practical aspects of image processing for Remote Sensing and Miscroscopy. In the afternoons students work in teams and solve an assignment of reviewing and analyzing State of the Art of a particular topic. On the last day of the Summer School, there will be an exam about the lecture topics as well as teams present their results to fellow participants and an evaluation committee (selected from lecturers). The best works are awarded prizes. Students will receive a certificate of attending the Summer School and passing the exam.
