Aims and Scope

Driven by advances in machine learning and large-scale data, pattern recognition has rapidly evolved into a central research area spanning computer vision, signal and speech processing, and natural language understanding. SPRA 2027 aims to showcase the state of the art and to catalyze cross-disciplinary collaboration that translates fundamental progress into impactful applications.

We cordially invite researchers, practitioners, and sponsors to the 7th Symposium on Pattern Recognition and Applications (SPRA 2027), to be held in Tokyo, Japan, March 03-05, 2027. The program will feature Keynote and invited sessions, oral and poster presentations, special sessions, etc, fostering focused, high-quality exchanges with leading experts worldwide. We anticipate that the discussions at SPRA 2026 will spark new ideas, advance methodology, and highlight breakthroughs and challenges shaping the field.

We look forward to welcoming you to SPRA 2026 and to the vibrant city of Tokyo for a valuable and enjoyable experience.
