Daniela Lopez de Luise 11th International Workshop on Computational Intelligence for Multimedia Understanding (IWCIM) @ IEEE ICASSP 2023 | Rhodes Island, Greece | June 4-9, 2023
February 21st, 2023
Daniela Lopez de Luise We cordially invite you to submit your original contributions to IWCIM 2023 – the 11th International Workshop on Computational Intelligence for Multimedia Understanding (IWCIM), which will take place as a satellite workshop to IEEE ICASSP 2023, to be held in Rhodes Island, Greece on June 4 – 9, 2023.
Please see the workshop website https://iwcim.itu.edu.tr/ and the general conference web page https://2023.ieeeicassp.org/ for more information.
Multimedia understanding is an important part of many intelligent applications in our social life, whether in our households or in commercial, industrial, service, and scientific environments. Analyzing raw data to provide them with semantics is essential to exploit their full potential and help us manage our everyday tasks. Nowadays, raw data normally come from a host of different sensors and other sources and are different in nature, format, reliability and information content. Multimodal and cross-modal analysis are the only ways to use them at their best. Besides data analysis, this problem is also relevant to data description intended to help storage and mining. Interoperability and exchangeability of heterogeneous and distributed data is a need for any practical application. Semantics is information at the highest level, and inferring it from raw data (that is, from information at the lowest level) entails exploiting both data and prior information to extract structure and meaning. Computation, machine learning, statistical and Bayesian methods are tools to achieve this goal at various levels.

Special session on AI and physical models at the next CBMI conference, deadline April 12
February 21st, 2023
Daniela Lopez de Luise special session on : Physical Models and AI in Image and in Multimodality at CBMI2023 conference (http://cbmi2023.org/)
Deep neural networks now enable the learning of complex functions from the data to address a variety of difficult problems. However, questions emerge on the relevance and understanding of their learned functions, especially when relating to physical models.
Knowledge on the physical environment can allow for the introduction of constraints on the model in order to reduce the search space and to converge to more relevant and simplified solutions that can contribute to higher model confidence. Image synthesis and computer graphics are typical application domains that make use of the known physical constraints on objects and materials to produce realistic images.
Conversely, when the physical model is not perfectly known, AI-based models can help identify relevant solutions to improve the physicist's knowledge and understanding of a given phenomenon. A typical example is haze removal in images while the physical haze model is still not well identified.
Finally, when addressing AI and physics problems, the different data modalities need to be fused appropriately. Again, multimodality handling can be guided by knowledge on the physical model or can be learnt in order to increase knowledge.
This special session aims to bring together researchers working on analysis, indexing, and mining of data related to images and multimodality in various fields involving physical models, remote sensing, astrophysics, mechanics, computer graphics, provides them a venue for sharing novel ideas and discuss their most recent works and promotes exchanges between computer scientists and astrophysicists. Topics of interest include (but are not limited to):
-
Supervised learning: classification and regression
-
Unsupervised learning: clustering and dimensionality reduction
-
Real time, on-site or on-board processing
-
Learning physical models from data
-
From simulated to actual data
-
Time-Series Analysis
-
Management of data in physics
