This volume contains the papers selected for presentation atthe Second International Conference on Parallel ImageAnalysis (ICPIA '92), held in Ube, Japan, December 21-23,1992. The conference topics are data structures, parallelalgorithms and architectures, neural networks, computationalvision, syntactic generation and recognition, andmultidimensional models. The first meeting with these topicswas theInternational Colloquium on Parallel ImageProcessing, which took place in Paris in June 1991. The aimof the meetings is to bring together specialistsfromvarious countries who are interested in the topics and tostimulatetheoretical and practical research in the field ofparallel image processingand analysis. The volume contains three invited papers, a summary of atutorial lecture, and twenty selected and refereedcommunications.
