Printedonacid-freepaper SpringerispartofSpringerScience+BusinessMedia(www.springer.com) Preface It is with great pleasure that I welcome you all to the proceedings of the 6th International Image Processing and Communications Conference (IP&C 2014) held in Bydgoszcz,10–12 September 2014. At the same time is growing interest in Image Processing and Communica- tions and its applications in science, engineering, medical image analysis and biometrics. IP&C is a central topic in contemporary computer and IT science and are interdisciplinary areas, where researchersand practitioners may find interesting problems which can be successfully solved. Thepresentbookincludesasetofpapersonactualproblemsofresearchand application of image processing and communications technologies. I sincerely hope that this book provides a good view into research presented at the IP&C 2014 Conference and will offer opportunities for professionalgrowth. The book consists of two sections: 1. Image processing 2. Communications. Finally, I would like to thank all authors, reviewers and participants, who contributedtothehighqualityoftheIP&CConferenceandscientificexchanges.
