Gandia, Spain. December 6-9, 2021.
(Technical Co-Sponsorship by IEEE)

SNAMS 2021 CFP:
Social network analysis is concerned with the study of relationships between social entities. The recent advances in internet technologies and social media sites, such as Facebook, Twitter and LinkedIn, have created outstanding opportunities for individuals to connect, communicate or comment on issues or events of their interests. Social networks are dynamic and evolving in nature; they also involve a huge number of users. Frequently, the information related to a certain concept is distributed among several servers. This brings numerous challenges to researchers, particularity in the data mining and machine learning fields. The purpose of International Conference on Social Networks Analysis, Management and Security(SNAMS-2021) is to provide a forum for researchers to present and discuss their work which is related to social network analysis. The SNAMS 2021 is col-located with the 8th IEEE International Symposium on Internet of Things: Systems, Management and Security (IoTSMS).
SNAMS 2021 aims to investigate the opportunities and in all aspects of Social Networks. In addition, it seeks for novel contributions that help mitigating SNAMS challenges. That is, the objective of SNAMS 2021 is to provide the opportunity for students, scientists, engineers, and researchers to discuss and exchange new ideas, novel results and experience on all aspects of Social Networks. Researchers are encouraged to submit original research contributions in all major areas, which include, but not limited to:

Workshop on Document Visual Question Answering

 

Workshop on Document Visual Question Answering (DocVQA 2021) 

https://docvqa.org/static/workshop_2021.html 

 

Visual Question Answering has become a key task in the vision and language field, while it has also become clear lately that there are numerous questions of common interest which cannot be answered unless written information in the image could be read and understood in the context provided by the visual information. 

Document Visual Question Answering (DocVQA) aims to bring VQA to the Document Image Analysis field, that focuses on understanding written communication in images. DocVQA is proposed as a generic paradigm for purpose-driven document analysis and recognition, where natural language questions drive the information extraction and document understanding processes. This challenges current practice in Document Image Analysis Recognition where research has historically focused on generic bottom-up information extraction tasks (character recognition, table extraction, word spotting), largely disconnected from the final purpose the extracted information is used for. 

 

Invited Speakers 

Amanpreet Singh (Facebook AI Research) – “Towards models that can read and reason about scene text” 

Brian Price (Adobe Research Labs) – “Understanding Data Visualizations via Question Answering” 

Yijuan Lu (Microsoft Azure AI) – “Scene Text-Aware Pre-training for Text-VQA and Text-Caption” 

 

Challenge Session 

Winners of the 2021 edition of DocVQA challenge will be presenting their winning submissions at the workshop 

 

Participation 

The DocVQA 2021 workshop will take place at the Int. Conf. on Document Analysis and Recognition (ICDAR) on September 6, 2021, in the afternoon session as a virtual event.
