Special Session on Artificial Intelligence and Deep Learning Applied to Smart Environments

Special Session on Artificial Intelligence and Deep Learning Applied to Smart Environments 

@ IEEE Splitech Int. Conf. on Smart and Sustainable technologies,  20-23 June 2023

Location: Bol Croatia, Hotel Elaphusa

Call for Papers:
Today interconnected objects are everywhere, they are a formidable source of data and their processing allow to boost smart and interacting environment capabilities. To this aim, Artificial Intelligence (AI) and Machine Learning (ML) play an important role in accomplishing this achievement. In the latest decade AI and ML have received great attention to solve difficult and complex problems in smart and interactive environments, and their advances brought impressive progresses in several fields such as medicine, e-health, healthcare, neuroscience, brain-computer interface, neurofeedback, robotics and automotive, biometrics, etc. In this context, the advanced learning techniques such as deep learning, reinforcement learning, deep reinforcement learning, statistical learning have shown their effectiveness to solve various problems of detection, classification, clustering, segmentation, control, diagnosis, etc.; and thus, becomes useful solutions to be investigated more for other open problems.
This Special Session will provide an opportunity for scientists, engineers and researchers to discuss new applications, design problems, ideas, solutions, research and development results, experiences and work-in-progress activities in this important technological area.
Prospective researchers are invited to submit their original research findings in AI, Deep and Machine Learning to this Special Session under the following topics (but not limited to):
·      biomedical signal processing and analysis
·      healthcare and precision medicine
·      biomedical data processing (e.g. deep learning, reinforcement learning, deep reinforcement learning, statistical learning…)
·      AI applied to smart embedded solutions
·      AI in smart retail environments
·      Mobile/Computer/Robot interaction by using AI
·      AI and smart drones
·      Surveillance and secure systems with AI
·      AI in ambient assisted living systems 
·      AI in smart home
·      AI in smart animals’ environments
·      AI in smart factories and manufacturing
·      Case studies, field trials, and industrial Applications

 

 

The Special Session on Artificial Intelligence and Deep Learning Applied to Smart Environments is included in the International Symposium on the Internet of Things organized in the frame of the 7th International Conference on Smart and Sustainable Technologies (SpliTech 2023), technically co-sponsored by the IEEE Communication Society (ComSoc), will be held in Bol and Split, Croatia, June 20-23, 2023.

 ### Link

http://goodit.campusfc.unibo.it/calls/#call-for-special-tracks-proposals

 ###   Scope

ACM GoodIT 2023 will feature special tracks whose aim is to focus on a
specific topic of interest related to the overall scope of the
conference. We solicit proposals for special tracks to be held within
the main conference and whose publications will be included in
conference proceedings. Tracks proposals can focus on any contemporary
themes that highlight social good aspects in the design,
implementation, deployment, securing, sustainability and evaluation of
IT technologies.

 ###   Track Proposal Format

A special track proposal must contain the following information:

 –        Title of the special track

–        The names of the organizers (indicatively, two) with
affiliations, contact information, and a single paragraph of a brief
bio.

–        A short description of the scope and topics of the track (max
1/2 page) and a brief explanation of: (1) why the topic is timely and
important; (2) why the topic is related to the conference’s main
theme; (3) why the track may attract a significant number of
submissions of good quality.

–        The plan to disseminate the call for papers of the special
track for achieving a reasonable number of paper submissions (a list
of emailing lists will help).

–        A tentative program committee list (at least ten experts,
including the organizers).

–        A draft call for papers (max 1 page).

–        (Optional) Indication if a journal special issue is
associated with the track, possibly with information on the process of
selecting papers.

###   Special Track Proposal Submission Guidelines

The proposal should be submitted as a single PDF file via email to the
special track chairs. In particular, send the email to:

–        Valentina Nisi, valentina.nisi[AT]tecnico.ulisboa.pt

–        Nathalie Mitton, nathalie.mitton[AT]inria.fr

–        (in cc) Catia Prandi, catia.prandi2[AT]unibo.it

The subject of the e-mail must be: “GoodIT 2023 – special track
proposal”. The special tracks chairs may ask proposers to supply
additional information during the review period.

### Publication of papers submitted to the accepted special tracks

Papers submitted to each accepted special track have to satisfy the
same criteria as for the main/regular track. They must be original
works and must not have been previously published. They have to be
peer-reviewed by the track’s Program Committee (at least three reviews
per submitted paper will be required and the chairs of each accepted
special track need to manage the review process). The final version of
the papers must follow the formatting instructions of the main
conference. At least one of the authors of all accepted papers must
register and present the work in presence at the conference;
otherwise, the paper will not be published in the proceedings. All
accepted and presented papers will be included in the conference
proceedings published in ACM Digital Library. Optionally, the special
track may provide an option for publishing extended versions of
selected papers in a special issue of a journal.

REVIEW PROCESS

______________

 

ACM ICMR follows a double-blind review process for full paper selection. Authors should not know the names of the reviewers of their papers, and reviewers should not know the name(s) of the author(s). Please prepare your paper in a way that preserves anonymity of the authors:

 

     Do not put your names under the title,

     Avoid using phrases such as “our previous work” when referring to

earlier publications by the authors,

     Remove information that may identify the authors in the

acknowledgments (e.g., co-workers and grant IDs),

     Check supplemental material for information that may identify the

authors’ identity,

     Avoid providing links to Websites that identify the authors.

 

Abstract and Keywords

 

The abstract and the keywords form the primary source for assigning papers to reviewers. So make sure that they form a concise and complete summary of your paper with sufficient information to let someone who has not read the full paper know what it is about.

 

Submission Instructions: https://icmr2023.org/paper-submissions/

Master the essentials for effective strategic IT portfolio management

                                                           

 

Hi Daniela,

Your IT must keep pace with business growth. Complex IT portfolios and poor transparency hinder needed agility and makes your IT unnecessarily expensive. Start your strategic portfolio management practice by concentrating on what’s core – your application and technology portfolios.

Join our webinar on February 15th and learn how to create a central application and technology repository for greater transparency. Find out how to perform portfolio assessments to highlight potential problem areas, understand gaps in the architecture and reduce IT spend with IT rationalization.

 

Can't make it? Please register and we will send you the recording afterwards.
