Publications

"In 2013 we published 50 internationally reviewed papers, more than any year before in the history of CBA, see Figure 31. There are several reasons for this, but the main one is that after two years without PhD dissertations there will be about eight new CBA doctors in 2014 and PhD students publish most at the end of their studies. Another reason is that we have more researcher than before and are involved in more co-operation projects.

In our research field the quality and impact of many conference proceedings are higher than many of the Journals. As the proceedings also usually are a faster way to publish we often chose that outlet of our results. But of course we also publish in scientific journals, especially when reporting results on medical applications in co-operation with medical researchers, as that field is more journal oriented.

This year we edited the proceedings of the ISMM conference which was published in the prestigious Springer Lecture notes in Computer Science. We published 29 journal articles in journals as different as the theoretical Computer Vision and Image Understanding and prestigious Nature Methods, from Artificial Intelligence Tools to Magnetic Resonance Imaging and Composite Science and Technology. We also published 21 papers in fully reviewed conference proceedings; both at meetings dedicated to the theory of image analysis, such as DGCI, ISMM, and SIGGRAPH, and to more application oriented ones, such as HIP, ISBI, and WHC. We also had many presentations at non-reviewed conferences.
