CALL for Summer / Fall 2023 AIDA course proposals

Dear ICT 48 project Partner, distinguished scientist,

 

in the framework of the AI4Media EU project funded under the European Union’s Horizon 2020, together with the ICT48 projects ELISE, VISION, HumanE AI NET and TAILOR, we have organized the AI Doctoral Academy (AIDA) aiming to become a reference initiative for AI education in Europe and implement mechanisms for inter-university sharing of AI educational assets at PhD-level. As part of the program, AIDA offers a series of courses on Artificial Intelligence and related fields given by distinguished lecturers.

 

We invite you to contribute to this initiative for the definition of the AIDA Summer/Fall semester program.

 

You can participate in the AIDA program by offering new or opening-up existing courses targeted to AIDA students* or other students worldwide according to the participation terms of your own organization. Short/Very Short course formats (5-16 hours) are typically encouraged, while semester courses, or asynchronous mode web courses will be considered as well. Accepted courses will be listed on AIDA website (https://www.i-aida.org/) and will be advertised for free with the support of AIDA dissemination channels. Proposals for courses for the AIDA Summer/Fall semester program should be sent to: Prof. Alberto del Bimbo alberto.delbimbo@unifi.it, Prof. Stefano Berretti stefano.berretti@unifi.it, and Ms. Ioanna Koroni koroniioanna@csd.auth.gr no later than May 31, 2023 and will be evaluated by the AIDA Committee by June 10, 2023.

IEEE IJCB 2023: Call for Special Session Proposals

Conference on Biometrics (IJCB 2023) ***

The IJCB 2023 technical program will highlight a limited number of
Special Sessions in order to complement the regular program with new or
emerging topics of particular interest to the Biometrics community.
Prospective organizers of Special Sessions should submit proposals with
the following information:

+ Special session title
+ A clear description/list of the addressed topic and the topics that
fall within its scope
+ A description of the significance and novelty of the topic and the
rationale for the proposed session including any possible
interdisciplinary aspects. This should also include an answer to the
question: why the topic of the special session should be considered in a
separate combined session rather than the main track of the conference?
+ Names, affiliations, and a short biography of the organizers
highlighting their expertise in the topic of the Special Session
(relative publications list is encouraged)
+ A list of research groups currently active in that area and potential
contributors
+ List of up to six (6) potential contributed papers (including titles,
authors, the contact information of the corresponding author, and a
short abstract) (if available)

Upon acceptance of the special session proposal, the call for papers for
the special sessions will be publicized via the IJCB 2023 website and
mailing lists. The contributed papers will be submitted in the same
format as regular papers. Organizers should not contribute more than one
paper. Proposals will be evaluated based on the timeliness of the topic
and on the qualifications of the organizers. The papers in each accepted
Special Session will undergo a review process, similar to the process
for regular papers.

*** Deadlines ***
Special Session Proposals due: May 27, 2023
Notification of acceptance of the Special Sessions: June 10, 2023
Special session paper submission deadline: July 17, 2023 (recommended)

Call for Papers “Transparent & Reflective objects In the wild Challenges” ICCV23 Workshop

Transparent & Reflective objects In the wild Challenges” ICCV23 Workshop
Website: https://sites.google.com/view/iccv23trickyworkshop

We are happy to announce that the first “Transparent & Reflective objects In the wild Challenges” workshop will be held in conjunction with ICCV23

From industry to the home, vision systems are expected to provide relevant information for every object they may encounter in their environment. Vision-based object understanding in particular has seen significant progress toward this goal as demonstrated, for example, by recent results in challenges such as the COCO, and its follow-up LVIS challenge, or the Benchmark for 6D Object Pose Estimation.

Transparent, reflective and, generally speaking, non-lambertian objects still present major challenges for methods as well as RGB and depth sensors. Color images become dependent on the viewpoint and background. Similarly, readings from depth cameras are unreliable whether they are based on stereo matching, time-of-flight or structured light. The unpredictable and unreliable data is problematic at two different levels. On one hand, such objects will not reliably be understood but their presence in the scene degrades the understanding of other objects in the scene through reflections and light path deformation.

The workshop on Transparent & Reflective objects In the wild Challenges (TRICKY) will discuss object classification, detection, tracking, reconstruction, depth and pose estimation from imaging data for such tricky objects with the aim of advancing the state-of-the-art and fostering novel research directions. A major focus will be put on the applicability of methods in unconstrained scenarios.

Invited speakers include Dr Michael Suppa, Dr Arsalan Mousavian, Prof. David Held, Prof. Jeffrey Ichnowski, and Prof. Manmohan Chandraker.

*****************************
TOPICS
*****************************
The workshop focusing on the following tasks (but is not limited to) applied to transparent or reflective objects:
* Object classification
* Object detection
* Object tracking
* Object reconstruction
* Depth estimation
* Pose estimation

*****************************
IMPORTANT DATES:
*****************************

Submission – July 5th 11:59PM Pacific Time
Author Notification – July 26th 11:59PM Pacific Time

*****************************
SUBMISSION GUIDELINES
*****************************

We invite submission of 4 page (excluding references) extended abstracts (following the ICCV 2023 template) on topics related to transparent and reflective object understanding. Reviewing of abstract submissions will be double-blind. The purpose of this workshop is not to be a venue for publication but rather a place to discuss and open new directions of research for transparent and reflective objects understanding, as well as gather a community of people interested in the field. The workshop proceedings will not appear in the official ICCV 2023 workshop proceedings. Submissions of work which has been previously published, including papers accepted to the main ICCV 2023 conference are allowed. Up to 6 submitted work will be presented as spotlight presentations (10 min.), otherwise, they will be presented as posters.

Submission can be sent at https://easychair.org/conferences/?conf=trickyiccv23
