Challenge on Video Quality Enhancement at CVPR 2025

February 4th, 2025 Daniela Lopez de Luise
We are organizing the first NTIRE Challenge on Video Quality Enhancement for Video Conferencing at CVPR 2025.

We invite researchers to develop Video Quality Enhancement models that improve lighting, color, sharpness, and reduce noise in video calls – thereby giving a professional studio-like effect. We provide participants with a differentiable Video Quality Assessment model, training and test videos. The participants submit enhanced videos which will be evaluated in our crowdsourced framework.

Registration is open. Checkout our website for details: https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/research/academic-program/ntire-2025-vqe/

Thank you

Call for Competition on text line segmentation: FEST @ ICDAR 2025

February 4th, 2025 Daniela Lopez de Luise
 

===================================

CALL FOR COMPETITION: FEST @ ICDAR 2025

Competition on few-shot text line segmentation

https://ai4ch.uniud.it/FESTcompICDAR25/

===================================

 

We are glad to announce FEST: Competition on FEw-Shot Text line segmentation of ancient handwritten documents (FEST), in conjunction with the 19th International Conference on Document Analysis and Recognition ICDAR 2025.

 

Competition Overview:

Text line segmentation is a crucial component of Document Image Analysis, particularly for ancient handwritten documents. It directly influences subsequent tasks like optical character recognition, layout analysis, and information extraction.

This competition challenges participants to develop systems capable of segmenting text lines using only three annotated images per manuscript for training. The dataset features a diverse collection of ancient manuscripts with varying layouts, levels of degradation, and non-standard formatting, reflecting real-world complexities. By focusing on few-shot learning, this competition aims to encourage the development of methods that can be readily applied by humanities scholars without the need for extensive manual annotation, fostering broader adoption of automated document analysis tools.

 

Competition Tasks:

We challenge the participants to perform the task of textline segmentation on the proposed dataset, U-DIADS-TL, in a few-shot setting, providing only three images, with their corresponding ground truths, as the training set for each of the three manuscripts comprising it.

 

Important Dates:

·        Registration Open: 10 December, 2024

·        Test set release to participants: 7 April, 2025

·        Deadline of the Competition: 20 April, 2025

·        Winner announcement: 30 June, 2025

CfP: Eye Movements in Programming (EMIP 2025)

February 4th, 2025 Daniela Lopez de Luise
International Workshop on Eye Movements in Programming

We are inviting contributions to the Thirteenth International Workshop on Eye Movements in Programming 2025, which will be held at the end of May 2025. It is co-located with the 2025 ACM Symposium of Eye Tracking Research & Applications (ETRA) in Tokyo, Japan.


The detailed call is available at https://www.emipws.org/workshop/emip-2025/

Kind regards,
Bonita Sharif, Andrew Begel, Norman Peitek

**************************************************************************

The study of eye gaze data has great potential for research in computer programming, computing education, and software engineering practice. The Thirteenth International Workshop on Eye Movements in Programming (EMIP 2025) will again focus on advancing the methodological, theoretical, and applied aspects of eye movements in programming. The goal of the workshop is to further develop the methodology of using eye gaze tracking for programming, both theoretically and in applications. What can gaze behavior tell us about cognitive processes during programming? This question enables us to understand the role of human factors involved in programming.

IMPORTANT DATES

• Submission deadline for papers: February 24th, 2025 (AoE)

• Notification to authors: March 21st, 2025

• Camera-ready deadline: March 31st, 2025 (AoE)

• Workshop: End of May, 2025


SUBMISSIONS AND PRESENTATIONS
The workshop will be devoted to presenting new research results. We invite several types of contributions:
• new research results
• new ideas
• demos

Submitted papers can contain up to 8 pages (single column, plus references). Additionally, EMIP will feature work-in-progress papers with up to 4 pages (single column, plus references). These will be reviewed lightly, but not published in the proceedings. Submissions must be written in English and should be submitted through Precision Conference System.

TOPICS OF INTEREST

We invite contributions analyzing gaze behavior of activities related to programming, such as code reading and debugging, social aspects, vision, and educational perspectives. These may include, but are not limited to, the role of emotions in programming, vision-based models, readability, and new theories of program comprehension. Contributions are expected to present implications to software engineering practice or programming education. Specific topics of interest include, but are not limited to:

• Identification and analysis of appropriate data abstractions for eye tracking analysis 
• Models of cognition about software development
• Effects of text-based, graphical, or diagram-based program representations
• Effects of syntax or language features, as well as programming paradigms
• Identification and analysis of behaviors and strategies of learners’ reading, writing, and debugging code, acquiring new domains and skills, longitudinal growth
• Challenges for learners or software engineers (e.g., obstacles to learning or accomplishing tasks)
• Applications for eye tracking, e.g., software engineering tasks, such as program comprehension, debugging, requirements traceability, change tracking
• Development and evaluation of tools and processes for working with eye tracking
• Development and evaluation of visualizations for static and dynamic program execution
• Applications offering programming assistance or accessibility using eye tracking devices, data, and analyses
• Combinations of eye tracking with other sensing modalities, such as fMRI, EEG, GSR, or fNIRS
• Multi-person eye tracking, e.g., during pair programming or collaborative problem solving
• Eye gaze datasets and source code amenable to eye gaze studies
• Analyses of pre-existing eye gaze datasets, e.g. the EMIP dataset
•  Development of platforms, tools, and methods which enable reproducible experiments
