ICL-GNSS 2021 call for special sessions AND paper submissions

Dear colleagues,

 

The International Symposium on Localization and GNSS (ICL-GNSS) 2021 will

be held on June 1-3, 2021 in Tampere, Finland (hybrid or virtual – remote

participation options will be provided even if the covid-19 situation will not

call for a fully virtual event).

 

We are taking in special session proposals until January 20. See

https://events.tuni.fi/icl-gnss2021 for any details on the event.

 

The paper submission is also open at https://www.conftool.pro/icl-gnss2021

where the IEEE paper deadline is February 21 (accepted papers to be submitted for

inclusion in IEEE Xplore) and Industry/Work-in-Progress paper deadline is in April

(using CEUR format and open-access proceedings).

 

Regards,

 

Jari Nurmi and Simona Lohan

CALL FOR PAPERS

 

COMPUTER GRAPHICS INTERNATIONAL CGI 2021, Geneva, Switzerland, 6-10 Septembre, 2021

 

Computer Graphics International (CGI) 2021 will be held in Geneva, Switzerland on September 6-10, 2021. CGI is one of the oldest annual international conferences on Computer Graphics in the world. Researchers across the whole world are invited to share their experiences and novel achievements in various fields – like Computer Graphics and Human-Computer Interaction. Former CGI conferences have been held in Yokohama, Japan, Heraklion, Greece, Strasbourg, France, Sydney, Australia, Bintan, Indonesia and Calgary, Canada, and last year, CGI 2020 was virtual.

This year, CGI2021 is organized by MIRALab, University of Geneva, Switzerland supported by the Computer Graphics Society (CGS).

Geneva is Switzerland’s second largest city, known as the City of Peace, and is home, among other things, to the European headquarters of UN, CERN, WHO, and many other organisations.
The conference, if physically held,  will take place at the beautiful campus of Biotech. (https://www.campusbiotech.ch/en/). More information about the location of the conference  will be given in early 2021.

CALL FOR VISUAL COMPUTER JOURNAL PAPERS (FIRST CALL)

The scientific program of the conference will include accepted papers from the first call for papers and these accepted papers will be published in the Visual Computer Journal (impact factor 1.45) by Springer-Verlag.

The accepted papers from the second call for papers will be included in the CGI conference proceedings published by LNCS, Springer.

Note that for both call for papers, the review process is double blind, which requires the paper and all supplemental materials to be anonymous. Ensure that self-referencing is anonymous (refer to your full name rather than “I” or “we”). Avoid providing information that may identify the authors in the acknowledgements (e.g. co-workers and grant IDs) and in the supplemental material (e.g. titles in the movies, or attached papers). Avoid providing links to websites that identify the authors. Violation of any of these guidelines will lead to rejection without review.

We invite original contributions that advance the state-of-the-art in topics related to:

Safety and Security of Deep Learning, ONLINE, Apr 2021, apologies for possible multiple copies

 

Deep learning is profoundly reshaping the research directions of entire scientific communities across mathematics, computer science, and statistics, as

well as the physical, biological and medical sciences . Yet, despite their indisputable success, deep neural networks are known to be universally

unstable. That is, small changes in the input that are almost undetectable produce significant changes in the output. This happens in applications such

as image recognition and classification, speech and audio recognition, automatic diagnosis in medicine, image reconstruction and medical imaging as well

as inverse problems in general. This phenomenon is now very well documented and yields non-human-like behaviour of neural networks in the cases where

they replace humans, and unexpected and unreliable behaviour where they replace standard algorithms in the sciences.

 

The many examples produced over the last years demonstrate the intricacy of this complex problem and the questions of safety and security of deep

learning become crucial. Moreover, the ubiquitous phenomenon of instability combined with the lack of interpretability of deep neural networks makes the

reproducibility of scientific results based on deep learning at stake.

 

For these reasons, the development of mathematical foundations aimed at improving the safety and security of deep learning is of key importance.  The

goal of this workshop is to bring together experts from mathematics, computer science, and statistics in order to accelerate the exploration of

breakthroughs and of emerging mathematical ideas in this area.

 

This ICERM workshop is fully funded by a Simons Foundation Targeted Grant to Institutes.
