Committees

Membership Committee

This Committee encourages nationals from countries not yet belonging to IAPR to persuade their local national organizations to apply for membership and to help them to make applications. The Committee is also responsible for checking whether applicants meet the Criteria for Membership and to assess the effective size of the applicant's association (so that annual dues and the permitted number of GB representatives can be determined). The Committee should review effective sizes from time to time. The committee also helps scientists from countries with no national organization covering pattern recognition, to set up such an association and define their rules so as to serve at best the scientific community within that country or region of the world.
