Continual Semi-Supervised Learning @ IJCAI 2021 – Call for participation

We warmly invite all machine learning researchers to participate in the upcoming IJCAI 2021 First International Workshop on Continual Semi-Supervised Learning

https://sites.google.com/view/sscl-workshop-ijcai-2021/

The aim of this workshop is to formalise this new continual semi-supervised learning paradigm, and to introduce it to the machine learning community in order to mobilise effort in this direction. We present the first two benchmark datasets for this problem, derived from significant computer vision scenarios, and propose the first Continual Semi-Supervised Learning Challenges to the research community.

To attend, please follow IJCAI guidelines for workshop registration (early bird $80):

Format —————————————————————————————————————–
The workshop is a full-day event, scheduled in two halves (see below) taking place on Thursday 19th August and Friday 20th August.
The event will be hosted on Gather Town, and will also be recorded via Zoom.
The programme is a blend of invited talks, oral presentations from the two award-winning papers, two poster sessions and a panel on the future of continual learning.

Challenges ————————————————————————————————————

With this workshop we intend to propose to the community both a continual activity recognition (CAR) challenge and a continual crowd counting (CCC) challenge.

https://sites.google.com/view/sscl-workshop-ijcai-2021/challenges

based on a newly released Continual Activity Recognition (CAR) dataset, derived from a fraction of the MEVA (Multiview Extended Video with Activities) activity detection dataset (https://mevadata.org/), and a Continual Crowd Counting (CCC) dataset, derived from sequences from the Mall, UCSD and  FDST datasets.
