In this Element, the authors consider fully discretized p-Laplacian problems (evolution, boundary value and variational problems) on graphs. The motivation of nonlocal continuum limits comes from the quest of understanding collective dynamics in large ensembles of interacting particles, which is a fundamental problem in nonlinear science, with applications ranging from biology to physics, chemistry and computer science. Using the theory of graphons, the authors give a unified treatment of all the above problems and establish the continuum limit for each of them together with non-asymptotic convergence rates. They also describe an algorithmic framework based proximal splitting to solve these discrete problems on graphs.

This book constitutes the proceedings of the 8th International Conference on Scale Space and Variational Methods in Computer Vision, SSVM 2021, which took place during May 16-20, 2021.

The contributions are organized in topical sections on multispectral colour science, color imaging and applications, digital cultural heritage, document image analysis, graph-based representations, image filtering and representation, computer vision and pattern recognition, computer graphics, biomedical, and signal processing.

This book constitutes the refereed proceedings of the Third International Conference on Image and Signal Processing, ICISP 2008, held in Cherbourg-Octeville, France, in July 2008. The 48 revised full papers and 22 revised poster papers presented were carefully reviewed and selected from 193 submissions. The papers are organized in topical sections on image filtering, image segmentation, computer vision, feature extraction, pattern recognition, graph-based representations, motion detection and estimation, new interfaces, document processing, and signal processing.

ICISP 2010, the International Conference on Image and Signal Processing, was the fourth ICISP conference, and was held in Trois-Rivi' eres, Qu' ebec, Canada. Historically, ICISP is a conference resulting from the actions of researchers of Canada,FranceandMorocco.PreviouseditionsofICISPwereheldinCherbourg- Octeville (France), Agadir (Morocco), and Agadir (Morocco) in 2008, 2003 and 2001, respectively. ICISP 2010 was sponsored by EURASIP (European Assoc- tion for Image and Signal Processing) and IAPR (International Association for Pattern Recognition). The response to the call for papers for ICISP 2010 was encouraging. From 165 full papers submitted, 69 were ?nally accepted (54 oral presentations, and 15 posters). The review process was carried out by the Program Committee members; all are experts in various image and signal processing areas. Each paper was reviewed by atleast two reviewers,and also checkedby the conference Co-chairs. The quality of the papers in these proceedings is attributed ?rst to the authors, and second to the quality of the reviews provided by the experts.We would like to thank the authors for responding to our call, and we thank the reviewers for their excellent work. We wereverypleasedto be ableto include inthe conferenceprogramkeynote talks by three world-renowned experts: Yann Lecun, Silver Professor of C- puter Science and Neural Science, The Courant Institute of Mathematical S- ences and Center for Neural Science, New York University (USA); Theo Gevers, Associate Professor, Faculty of Science, University of Amsterdam (The Neth- lands);andLeoGrady,SeniorMemberofTechnicalSta?withSiemensCorporate Research in Princeton, New Jersey (USA).
