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 conference was planned to take place in Cabourg, France, but changed to an online format due to the COVID-19 pandemic.
The 45 papers included in this volume were carefully reviewed and selected from a total of 64 submissions. They were organized in topical sections named as follows: scale space and partial differential equations methods; flow, motion and registration; optimization theory and methods in imaging; machine learning in imaging; segmentation and labelling; restoration, reconstruction and interpolation; and inverse problems in imaging.
