IEEE will no longer accept submitted papers which include the 'Lena image'.
The so-called 'Lenna image' has been used in image processing research since 1973 and has attracted criticism for making some women feel unwelcome in the field.
An uncropped version of the 512×512-pixel test image originally appeared as the centerfold picture for the December 1972 issue of Playboy Magazine.
In 1997, Playboy helped track down Forsén, who appeared at the 50th Annual Conference of the Society for Imaging Science in Technology, signing autographs for fans.
