Call for Papers

The DAGM German Conference on Pattern Recognition (DAGM GCPR) 2025 is the 47th annual symposium of the German Association for Pattern Recognition (DAGM). It is an international venue for recent advances in pattern recognition including image processing, machine learning, and computer vision, and welcomes submissions from all areas of pattern recognition. This year, it will be held in Freiburg.

Authors are invited to submit high-quality papers presenting original research. Submitted papers will be reviewed based on the criteria of originality, soundness, empirical evaluation, and presentation. The reviewing process is double-blind. Accepted papers will be published by Springer as a proceeding of the Lecture Notes in Computer Science (LNCS). The best papers will be invited to contribute to a special issue of the International Journal of Computer Vision (IJCV).

Topics of interest include, but are not limited to, the following:

• Image/video processing, analysis, and computer vision
• Machine learning and pattern recognition
• Perception and machine learning for robotic systems
• Mathematical foundations, statistical data analysis and models
• Computational photography and confluence of vision and graphics
• Biomedical image processing and analysis
• Document analysis
• Biometrics
• Applications

Submission deadlines

DAGM Young Researcher's Forum

If you are a Master student, you are invited to submit your thesis as a paper to GCPR to promote your work, meet prospective employers or Ph.D. supervisors and compete for the Best Master’s thesis award of the DAGM Young Researcher’s forum. Please follow the special submission instructions on the conference web page.

Nectar Track

The nectar track is an opportunity for you to contribute to the program of GCPR by presenting a paper already published at a previous major international computer vision, or machine learning conference or in a journal. This way, you can generate additional exposure of your work and have a platform for networking with colleagues within and outside the GCPR community.
