This book constitutes the refereed proceedings of the International Workshop on Depth Image Analysis, held in conjunction with ICPR 2012 in Japan in November 2012. The papers are organized in topical sections on acquisition and modeling of depth data, processing and analysis of depth data, applications, and ICPR contest.

Acquisition and Modeling of Depth Data.- Optimal Decoding of Stripe Patterns with Window Uniqueness Constraint.- A 3D Impression Acquisition System for Forensic Applications.- Impact of Thermal and Environmental Conditions on the Kinect Sensor.- A Prior-Based Approach to 3D Face Reconstruction Using Depth Images.- View-Invariant Method for Calculating 2D Optical Strain.- Processing and Analysis of Depth Data Removing Moving Objects from Point Cloud Scenes.- High Quality Novel View Synthesis Based on Low Resolution Depth Image and High Resolution Color Image.- Color Segmentation Based Depth Image Filtering.- Stereoscopic Image Inpainting Considering the Consistency of Texture Similarity.- A Dynamic MRF Model for Foreground Detection on Range Data Sequences of Rotating Multi-beam Lidar.- Posture Analysis and Range of Movement Estimation Using Depth Maps.- Fast 3D Keypoints Detector and Descriptor for View-Based 3D Objects Recognition.- Incremental Dense Reconstruction from Sparse 3D Points with an Integrated Level-of-Detail Concept.- Probability-Based Dynamic Time Warping for Gesture Recognition on RGB-D Data.- Applications.- Towards an Augmented Reality System for Violin Learning Support.- Extraction and Visualization of Cardiac Beat by Grid-Based Active Stereo.- An Accurate and Efficient Pile Driver Positioning System Using Laser Range Finder.- ICPR2012 Contests.- Kitchen Scene Context Based Gesture Recognition: A Contest in ICPR2012.- Results and Analysis of the ChaLearn Gesture Challenge 2012.

This book constitutes the refereed proceedings of the  International Workshop on Depth Image Analysis, held in conjunction with ICPR 2012 in Japan in November 2012. The 16 revised full papers presented at the workshop were carefully reviewed and selected from 27 submissions and are complemented with 3 invited papers that were also peer-reviewed. The papers are organized in topical sections on acquisition and modeling of depth data, processing and analysis of depth data, applications, and ICPR contest.
