ACM ICMR 2025 is calling for high quality Workshops addressing
innovative research in multimedia retrieval and its related broad
fields. The scope of the conference is not only search and retrieval of
multimedia data but also addresses analysis and understanding of
multimedia contents, including:
* Integration of diverse multimodal data;
* Deep learning-based methodology and practical multimedia applications;
* Multimedia dataset creation and management (and compliance with
ethical practices);
* Interpretability of multimedia analysis and retrieval techniques and
connection with social sciences;
* Exploring bias in multimedia datasets;
* Practical systems/applications of multimedia analysis and retrieval on
different areas, e.g. media & entertainment, culture, health, security,
etc.;
* Multimedia analysis and retrieval aiming to solve major societal
challenges (e.g. disinformation, climate change, social inequalities etc.);
* Legal/ethical challenges and societal impact of multimedia analysis
and retrieval;
* Community-contributed social data;
* Lifelogging data and automatically generated sensor data;
* Generative AI for multimedia content creation and retrieval.
The Workshops will contain both:
* Long research papers which should present complete work with
evaluations on topics related to the Conference. They will have both
oral and poster presentations at the conference.
* Short research papers which should present preliminary results or more
focused contributions. They will be presented as posters at the conference.
We cordially invite you to submit your workshop proposals to ICMR 2025!

IbPRIA 2025
30/Jun – 3/Jul – Coimbra, Portugal
Website: http://www.ibpria.org
IbPRIA is an international conference co-organized by the Portuguese APRP and Spanish AERFAI chapters of the IAPR International Association for Pattern Recognition, and it is technically endorsed by the IAPR.
IbPRIA consists of high-quality, previously unpublished papers, presented either orally or as a poster, intended to act as a forum for research groups, engineers and practitioners, to present recent results, algorithmic improvements and promising future directions in pattern recognition and image analysis.
All accepted papers will appear in the conference proceedings and will be published in Springer Lecture Notes in Computer Science Series. In addition, a short list of presented papers will be invited to submit extended versions for possible publication after revision in a journal to announce soon. The best paper and best student paper awards will be invited to prepare extended versions to be considered for publication on another journal (to announce soon). The following awards will be given at IbPRIA 2025:
- Best paper award (and additional honorable mention).
- Best student paper award (and additional honorable mention).
- APRP Ph.D. prize 2023-2024.
