Since target/object recognition is a key objective of both groups, for military as well as commercial applications, this joint conference has a theme of "Cooperative Development". The Joint Conference will minimize overlap between the ATR and IU sessions to facilitate participation in both conferences. Civilian and Military leaders will give key speeches about operational applications and emerging technologies of interest to both groups. Some ATR sessions will be SECRET NOFORN. CALL FOR PAPERS. The ATR Systems and Technology Conference Committee is soliciting original unclassified and classified (through SECRET NOFORN) papers in the following areas. (Papers to be published in the 1994 IU proceedings will be solicited separately.) * Target Recognition and Identification * ATR Systems * Target Detection and Tracking * Multisensor Database Management * Moving, Time-critical, and Hidden Targets * Evaluation Methodologies * Data Synthesis and Characterization * Man-Machine Interfaces * Phenomenology-based Algorithms * Multisensor Processing Submit an unclassified abstract that concisely describes your paper (300 words or less); also include the classification level of the paper, lead author, co-authors, industry and/or government organization, mailing address, e-mail address, phone and FAX numbers. By submitting an abstract to this conference, you are committing your paper exclusively to this conference, should it be accepted. Abstracts postmarked no later than March 15, 1994, should be sent to Annette Bergman at this address: Commander, Code C2158 Attn: A. Bergman, NAVAIRWARCENWPNDIV, 1 Administration Circle, China Lake, CA 93555-6001. The lead author will be notified of acceptance or regret by May 20, 1994. Camera-ready manuscripts of accepted papers must be postmarked not later than August 20, 1994 and sent to Mr. Andrew Zembower, IIT Research Institute, 4140 Linden Ave., Suite 201, Dayton, OH 45432.
