Welcome to DICTA 2026

We are delighted to extend a warm invitation to you for the 28th International Conference on Digital Image Computing: Techniques and Applications (DICTA 2026). DICTA is the premier conference organized in Australia on computer vision, image processing, pattern recognition, and related areas. DICTA was established in 1991 as a flagship conference of the Australian Pattern Recognition Society (APRS). The 28th DICTA 2026 conference will be held in Sydney, Australia on Dec 2-4, 2026.

DICTA 2026 offers ample opportunities to connect with the brightest minds from academia and industry in the field of digital image processing. We invite students, academic and industry researchers as well as practitioners to submit their latest work for presentation at DICTA 2026. We look forward to welcoming you all to Sydney for an enriching conference experience!
