Call For Papers

The Indian Conference on Computer Vision, Graphics and Image Processing (ICVGIP) stands as India's foremost conference in the areas of Computer Vision, Graphics, Image Processing, and allied fields. Established in 1998, it was held biennially until 2021, serving as a premier international platform for presenting technological innovations and research breakthroughs. The 17^th edition, ICVGIP 2026, will be organized by Indian Statistical Institute with TCG CREST, in collaboration with the Indian Unit for Pattern Recognition and Artificial Intelligence (IUPRAI), an affiliate of the International Association for Pattern Recognition (IAPR). Recognizing the rapid growth of the community, ICVGIP has been held annually since 2022. The conference is committed to nurturing and strengthening the community of researchers and practitioners in computer vision, graphics, and image processing both within India and globally. We endeavor to uphold this commitment at every edition of the conference.

- Policy on arXiv and Technical Reports:
  Manuscripts previously available as non-peer-reviewed technical reports (e.g., arXiv) are not considered prior publications and are eligible for submission.
- Formatting and Length:
  - Papers must be submitted in PDF format (maximum size: 20 MB).
  - Authors are strongly encouraged to use the official LaTeX template Download the LaTeX template (ZIP) (Word template may be used if necessary).
  - The main manuscript is limited to 8 pages, including text, figures, and tables.
  - References may extend beyond the 8-page limit.
- Supplementary Material (Optional):
