MUSTCV 2026: 5th Workshop on Computer Vision for Multimedia Spatial Intelligence through Time (at ECCV 2026)
June 23rd, 2026
Daniela Lopez de Luise ECCV2026 workshop on uncertainty quantification
June 23rd, 2026
Daniela Lopez de Luise https://uncertainty-cv.github.io/2026/
Submission Deadline: June 30th, 2026, 23:59 CEST
Two types of paper are welcome:
– Extended Abstracts (novel contributions or papers that have been already accepted for publication previously)
Apologies for multiple posting.
Please distribute this call to interested parties.
In the last decade, substantial progress has been made w.r.t. the performance of computer vision systems, a significant part of it thanks to deep learning. These advancements prompted sharp community growth and a rise in industrial investment. However, most current models lack the ability to reason about the confidence of their predictions; integrating uncertainty quantification into vision systems will help recognize failure scenarios and enable robust applications.
The ECCV 2026 workshop on Uncertainty Quantification for Computer Vision will consider recent advances in methodology and applications of uncertainty quantification in computer vision. Prospective authors are invited to submit papers on relevant algorithms and applications including, but not limited to:
– Applications of uncertainty quantification in computer vision
– Reliability, calibration, and uncertainty in vision foundation models
– Uncertainty estimation for large multimodal models, including vision-language and video-language models
– Hallucination detection and mitigation in multimodal and generative AI systems
– Uncertainty in diffusion, flow-matching, image/video generation, and text-to-image alignment
– Open-vocabulary recognition, detection, and segmentation under uncertainty
– Failure prediction, out-of-distribution detection, and distribution shift
– Robustness, safety, and uncertainty-aware decision making in computer vision
– Selective prediction, abstention, and human-in-the-loop systems
– Conformal prediction, risk control, and statistically grounded uncertainty guarantees
– Uncertainty in 3D vision, neural rendering, Gaussian splatting, and world models
– Uncertainty-aware synthetic data generation, data curation, and evaluation
– Deep probabilistic models and Bayesian methods for vision
– Incorporating explicit prior knowledge in deep learning and foundation models
– Output ambiguity, label noise, annotator disagreement, and diversity
– Safety-critical applications, including autonomous driving, robotics, and medical diagnosis
All papers will be peer-reviewed, and accepted Regular papers are presented at the workshop and included in the ECCV Workshop Proceedings.
Submission Instructions
At the time of submission authors must indicate the desired paper track:
– Regular papers will be peer-reviewed following the same policy of the main conference and will be published in the proceedings (call for papers with guidelines and template here, max 8 pages, additional pages for references only are allowed). These are meant to present novel contributions not published previously (submitted papers should not have been published, accepted or under review elsewhere).
– Extended abstracts are meant for preliminary works and short versions of papers that have already been accepted, or are under review, preferably in the last year in some major conferences or journals. These papers will undergo a separate reviewing process to assess the suitability for the workshop. These will *not appear* in the workshop proceedings. Template and guidelines (max 4 content pages, additional pages for references allowed) here.

*** Last Mile for Fast Abstracts and Project Highlights Submissions ***
37th IEEE International Symposium on Software Reliability Engineering
(ISSRE 2026)
October 20-23, 2026, 5* St. Raphael Resort and Marina

(*** Submission Deadline: June 25, 2026 AoE (extended and final!) ***)
(*** Proceedings to be published by IEEE ***)
A Fast Abstract (FA) or Project Highlights (PH) paper is a two-page, lightly reviewed
technical article. The FA/PH track at ISSRE 2026 aims to bring together researchers and
practitioners working in Software Reliability Engineering (SRE) to:
• Introduce early original ideas.
• Discuss relevant work-in-progress and ongoing experiences.
• Challenge the SRE status quo on key topics.
• Present critical analyses of prior work.
• Share lessons learned from real-world SRE applications.
• Propose new problems from industrial or academic experience.
• Describe approaches to problems of significance that may not yet have complete results.
In addition to traditional Fast Abstracts, the track welcomes Project Highlights (PH) papers.
PH papers are expected to disseminate results, visions, methodologies, tools, and ongoing
activities from national and international research projects (e.g., European, or multi-
institutional initiatives).
Project Highlights may include, but are not limited to:
• Overviews of funded research projects and their objectives.
• Project methodologies, architectures, and experimental frameworks.
• Early or intermediate results, including lessons learned and preliminary insights.
• Datasets, benchmarks, tools, platforms, and other project outcomes released or in
progress.
• Collaboration experiences, challenges, and emerging research directions from national
or international projects.
Project Highlights that can stimulate discussion and collaboration within the ISSRE
community are welcome. Ongoing projects and projects completed not earlier than
October 2025 are eligible.
Accepted contributions will be published in the Supplemental Proceedings of ISSRE 2026
and made available via IEEE Xplore.
Topics of Interest
Topics of interest include, but are not limited to:
• Reliability, safety, maintainability, security, survivability, resilience, robustness, and other
dependability attributes.
• Faults (defects, bugs, etc.), errors, failures, and other dependability threats.
• Reliability of all systems, applications, networks, and software, including problems,
solutions, and discussions.
• Metrics, measurement, assessment, monitoring, modeling, estimation, and prediction
regarding reliability.
• Reliability of AI-powered software systems, including large language models (LLMs),
autonomous agents, and AI-enabled applications.
• Other contents about software reliability, such as normative/regulatory/ethical spaces,
societal aspects, etc.
Presentations
The presentation might be in the form of a short talk in a Fast Abstracts/Project Highlights
session or a poster. Further details about presentations and posters will be shared with
authors upon notification.
Submission Guidelines
Manuscripts must be:
• submitted via EasyChair as a single Portable Document Format (PDF) file with all fonts
embedded;
• written in English and be formatted according to the IEEE Computer Society Format
Guidelines.
Manuscripts must adhere to IEEE Conference Publishing Policies. Particularly, they should
