It is our pleasure to invite you to submit your latest research results (regular or position papers) to the 18th International Conference on Signal Processing and Multimedia Applications (SIGMAP 2021), that will be held Online from July 06 to July 08, 2021, until the 21st of May.

Please notice this is a hard deadline and will not be extended.

SIGMAP 2021 is an annual conference whose goal is to bring together researchers, engineers and practitioners interested on information systems and applications, including theory and practice in various heterogeneous and interrelated fields including image, video and audio data processing, new sources of multimodal data (text, social, health, etc.) and Multimedia Applications related to representation, storage, authentication and communication of multimedia information. Multimedia is a research field that includes computing methods in which different modalities are integrated and combined, with the aim to take advantage from each data source.

The conference will be held in cooperation with the ACM Special Interest Group on Multimedia and will include in its technical program remarkable distinguished speakers, such as:

Amarnath Gupta, University of California San Diego, United States
Henning Schulzrinne, United States
Noel O’Connor, Dublin City University, Ireland

The conference proceedings will be submitted for indexation by: SCOPUS, Google Scholar, The DBLP Computer Science Bibliography, Semantic Scholar, Microsoft Academic, Engineering Index (EI), Web of Science / Conference Proceedings Citation Index and a short list of

presented papers will be selected so that revised and extended versions of these papers will be published by Springer in a CCIS Series book.

All papers presented at the conference venue will also be available at the SCITEPRESS Digital Library.

Also, a short list of best papers will be invited for a post-conference special issue of the Springer Nature Computer Science journal.

Kind regards,

Mónica Saramago
