[ISP-UVEG Join the Atmospheric Machine Learning Emulation Challenge – Launching April 21, 2025!

Dear colleagues,

We are pleased to announce the launch of the Atmosphere Machine Learning Emulation Challenge (AMLEC), taking place from April 21 to June 30, 2025, as part of the ECML-PKDD 2025 competition program. Led by the Image and Signal Processing Group (ISP) at the University of Valencia (Spain), this challenge focuses on a timely and critical task: emulating Radiative Transfer Models (RTMs) — essential tools in climate and Earth observation sciences — with fast, accurate, and generalizable machine learning models.

🌍 Challenge Goal
Participants are invited to develop surrogate models that can accurately replicate the behavior of computationally expensive RTMs. The task is particularly relevant for hyperspectral satellite missions, where real-time data processing and efficient atmospheric correction are crucial.

📊 Resources & Evaluation
Participants will use RTM datasets provided on HuggingFace, where detailed instructions, evaluation metrics, and submission guidelines are also available. Submissions are evaluated via predefined error metrics. No formal registration is required—just a HuggingFace account to submit your results.

🧠 Why Participate?

  • Contribute to physics-aware AI and climate science

  • Present your work at ECML-PKDD 2025

  • Be part of a research publication summarizing the challenge and top models

🔗 Useful Links

📅 Key Dates

  • Challenge opens: April 21, 2025

  • Submission deadline: June 30, 2025

We encourage all researchers, students, and practitioners in machine learning, climate science, and remote sensing to join us in this initiative.

*** Call for Papers ***
Recent advancements in generative models within the realms of computer
vision and artificial intelligence have revolutionized the way
researchers approach data-driven tasks. The advent of sophisticated
generative models, such as GANs (Generative Adversarial Networks), VAEs
(Variational Autoencoders), or more recently diffusion models, has
empowered practitioners to create synthetic data that closely mirrors
real-world scenarios. These models enable the generation of
high-fidelity images and sequences, laying the foundation for
groundbreaking applications in face and gesture analysis. The
significance of these generative models lies in their ability to produce
synthetic data that is remarkably realistic, thereby mitigating
challenges associated with data scarcity and privacy concerns. As a
result, the utilization of synthetic data has become increasingly
prevalent in various research domains, offering a versatile and ethical
alternative for training and testing machine learning algorithms.

This workshop aims to delve into the diverse applications of synthetic
data in the realm of face and gesture analysis. Participants will
explore how synthetic datasets have been instrumental in training facial
recognition systems, enhancing emotion detection models, and refining
gesture recognition algorithms. The workshop will showcase exemplary use
cases where the integration of synthetic data has not only overcome data
limitations but has also fostered the development of more robust and
accurate models. As researchers increasingly recognize the potential of
synthetic datasets in shaping the future of computer vision and machine
learning, there arises a demand for a collaborative platform where ideas
can be exchanged, methodologies shared, and challenges addressed. This
workshop aims to bridge the gap between theoretical knowledge and
practical implementation, fostering a community of experts and
enthusiasts dedicated to advancing the frontiers of synthetic data in
face and gesture analysis.

Topics of interest include, but are not limited to:
+ Novel generative techniques for producing realistic face and gesture data
+ Innovative approaches for labeling and annotating synthetic data
+ Methods for preventing data leakage in synthetic datasets
+ Development of synthetic data pipelines for biometrics
+ Techniques for using synthetic data to enrich and augment existing
datasets
+ Synthetic data as a tool for bias reduction and promoting fairness in
face and gesture analysis
+ Criteria and methodologies for assessing the quality of synthetic
datasets
+ Privacy-focused synthetic data generation for sensitive applications
+ New applications for synthetic data in areas like augmented reality,
animation, and virtual environments
+ Comparative performance benchmarks and quality assessments of
synthetic datasets
