The Society for Imaging Science and Technology has announced the launch of a new online journal at the intersection of perception and imaging. The Journal of Perceptual Imaging (JPI) springs from the Human Vision and Electronic Imaging Conference (HVEI), which has driven the research agenda in this multidisciplinary field for 30 years.
The goal of the journal is to publish research in perception and cognition that supports, or is inspired by, imaging technologies and applications. JPI's international and multidisciplinary editorial board is led by Editors-in-Chief Bernice Rogowitz (Visual Perspectives and Columbia University) and Thrasyvoulos Pappas (Northwestern University).
Drs. Rogowitz and Pappas have been instrumental to the success of the IS&T Conference on Human Vision and Electronic Imaging (HVEI). IS&T Publications Vice President Susan Farnand (Rochester Institute of Technology) notes that JPI perfectly builds on the HVEI conference.
JPI is launching as the world of electronic imaging is exploding, from its earliest roots in image processing, printing, and display technology to its vibrant branches in visualisation, image search, internet applications, and art. Some of the biggest advances in this field have been driven by insights and advances in psychology and vision science, including JPEG and MPEG coding, image quality metrics, high dynamic range imaging, and colour guidance for visual analytics.
In the tradition of other IS&T journals, the JPI manuscripts published will rely on a thorough peer-review process. All JPI papers will be available as open access papers in the IS&T Digital Library. The first publication of JPI is expected in early 2018. Submissions can be made directly to JPI for review and publication upon acceptance or through the JPI-first option at the IS&T Electronic Imaging Symposium.
