With the rapid progress of Internet technology, large-scale visual data can be found on the Internet, bringing significant opportunities for novel processing of visual information, as well as commercial applications. The Computational Visual Media Conference series is intended to provide a major international forum forexchanging novel research ideas and significant practical results both underpinning and applying Visual Media. The primary rationale for this new conference series is to target cross disciplinary research which amalgamates aspects of computer graphics, computer vision, machine learning, image processing, video processing, visualization and geometric computing. Original research is sought in areas concerning the classification, composition, retrieval, synthesis, and understanding of visual media. The first conference (CVM 2012) was held in Tsinghua University, Beijing, China. Computational Visual Media Conference 2013 will be held on September 19 to September 20, 2013, in Zhejiang University, Hangzhou.
