# Paper suggestions: image analysis

Here you can find a list of suggested papers that involve image analysis. You can also find suitable papers on your own (ask Thilo Figge).

<p class="callout danger">If you are unhappy with a paper you can always ask Thilo Figge to look for a replacement topic.</p>

<p class="callout info">You will have to write a one-page summary of the paper and send it to Thilo Figge a few days before your presentation.</p>
