Editorial
With great satisfaction, we present the special edition of the Revista de Informática Teórica e Aplicada (RITA), dedicated to the 2024 Workshop on Computer Vision (WVC). This special volume celebrates the growing relevance of computer vision, evidenced by the significant increase in publications and the diversity of practical applications in sectors such as healthcare, agriculture, and security.
The WVC 2024 was held at the Rio Paranaíba Campus of the Federal University of Viçosa (UFV) in Rio Paranaíba, Minas Gerais, Brazil, from November 6th to 9th, 2024. The event gathered over 200 participants, including researchers, students, and industry professionals from all regions of Brazil and abroad. A total of 84 articles were submitted, and 38 articles were selected to compose this special edition. At least three reviewers carefully evaluated each submission, ensuring the high quality of the works presented here.
The WVC 2024 program featured various activities, including lectures by renowned experts such as Dr. Moacir Ponti (ICMC-USP), Dr. Luiz Marcos Gonçalves (UFRN), Dr. Roger Chen (University of Hawaii), and Dr. André Backes (UFSCar), discussion panels on emerging topics, and a Hackathon promoted by PixForce, challenging participants to develop innovative solutions to real-world problems. In addition, practical workshops offered unique learning opportunities for students and professionals attending the event.
We are deeply grateful to the organizing committee members, the scientific committee, the invited speakers, and all the authors who entrusted WVC 2024 with disseminating their research. Our appreciation also extends to the sponsors and funding agencies, including Fapemig, PixForce, and Funarbe, whose financial support was essential for the success of this event. We also thank the Brazilian Computer Society (SBC)'s support. Special thanks to RITA's Editor-in-Chief, Dr. Márcio Dorn, for enabling the publication of this special edition with the articles from WVC 2024.
We hope this special volume of RITA inspires new ideas and fosters collaborations, contributing to significant advancements in computer vision.
