CVPR’23 Workshop on Event-based Vision. Call for papers and demos

We are excited to announce the CVPR 2023 – 4th International Workshop on Event–based Vision. Help us spread the word about the workshop! We have a great panel of speakers and we are also accepting contributions. Accepted papers will be published on IEEE.

Workshop website: https://tub-rip.github.io/eventvision2023/

Timeline:

  • Paper submission deadline: March 20, 2023. Submission website (CMT)
  • Demo abstract submission: March 20, 2023
  • Notification to authors: April 3, 2023
  • Camera-ready paper: April 8, 2023 (firm deadline by IEEE)
  • Workshop day: June 19, 2023. 2nd day of CVPR. Full day workshop.
Objectives:

This workshop is dedicated to event–based cameras, smart cameras, and algorithms processing data from these sensors. Event–based cameras are bio-inspired sensors with the key advantages of microsecond temporal resolution, low latency, very high dynamic range, and low power consumption. Because of these advantages, event–based cameras open frontiers that are unthinkable with standard frame-based cameras (which have been the main sensing technology for the past 60 years). These revolutionary sensors enable the design of a new class of algorithms to track a baseball in the moonlight, build a flying robot with the agility of a bee, and perform structure from motion in challenging lighting conditions and at remarkable speeds. These sensors became commercially available in 2008 and are slowly being adopted in computer vision and robotics. In recent years they have received attention from large companies, e.g., the event-sensor company Prophesee collaborated with Intel and Bosch on a high spatial resolution sensor, Samsung announced mass production of a sensor to be used on hand-held devices, and they have been used in various applications on neuromorphic chips such as IBM’s TrueNorth and Intel’s Loihi. The workshop also considers novel vision sensors, such as pixel processor arrays (PPAs), which perform massively parallel processing near the image plane. Because early vision computations are carried out on-sensor, the resulting systems have high speed and low-power consumption, enabling new embedded vision applications in areas such as robotics, AR/VR, automotive, gaming, surveillance, etc. This workshop will cover the sensing hardware, as well as the processing and learning methods needed to take advantage of the above-mentioned novel cameras.

Call for Papers and Demos:
Research papers and demos are solicited in, but not limited to, the following topics:

  • Event–based / neuromorphic vision.
  • Algorithms: motion estimation, visual odometry, SLAM, 3D reconstruction, image intensity reconstruction, optical flow estimation, recognition, feature/object detection, visual tracking, calibration, sensor fusion (video synthesis, visual-inertial odometry, etc.).
  • Model-based, embedded, or learning-based approaches.
  • Event–based signal processing, representation, control, bandwidth control.
  • Event–based active vision, event–based sensorimotor integration.
  • Event camera datasets and/or simulators.
  • Applications in: robotics (navigation, manipulation, drones…), automotive, IoT, AR/VR, space science, inspection, surveillance, crowd counting, physics, biology.
  • Biologically-inspired vision and smart cameras.
  • Near-focal plane processing, such as pixel processor arrays (PPAs).
  • Novel hardware (cameras, neuromorphic processors, etc.) and/or software platforms, such as fully event–based systems (end-to-end).
  • New trends and challenges in event–based and/or biologically-inspired vision (SNNs, etc.).
  • Event–based vision for computational photography.
  • A longer list of related topics is available in the table of content of the List of Event–based Vision Resources

Courtesy presentations:
We also invite courtesy presentations of papers relevant to the workshop that are accepted at CVPR main conference or at other peer-reviewed conferences or journals. These presentations provide visibility to your work and help build a community around the topics of the workshop. These contributions will be checked for relevance to the workshop, but will not undergo a complete review, and will not be published in the workshop proceedings. Please contact the organizers to make arrangements to showcase your work at the workshop.

Author guidelines:

Research papers and demos are solicited in, but not limited to, the topics listed above. Paper submissions must adhere to the CVPR 2023 paper submission style, format and length restrictions. See the author guidelines and template provided by the CVPR 2023 main conference. See also the policy of Dual/Double Submissions of concurrently-reviewed conferences, such as ICCV. Authors may want to limit the submission to four pages (excluding references) if that is their case. For demo abstract submission, authors are encouraged to submit an abstract of up to 2 pages.
A double blind peer-review process of the submissions received is carried out via CMT. Accepted papers will be published open access through the Computer Vision Foundation (CVF) (see examples from CVPR Workshop 2019 and 2021). For the accepted papers we encourage authors to write a paragraph about ethical considerations and impact of their work.

Organizers:

Looking forward to meeting you at the workshop!
Best regards,
The EventVision workshop organizers.

SCOPE:

DeepLearn 2023 Spring will be a research training event with a global scope aiming at updating participants on the most recent advances in the critical and fast developing area of deep learning. Previous events were held in Bilbao, Genova, Warsaw, Las Palmas de Gran Canaria, Guimarães, Las Palmas de Gran Canaria, Luleå and Bournemouth.

Deep learning is a branch of artificial intelligence covering a spectrum of current exciting research and industrial innovation that provides more efficient algorithms to deal with large-scale data in a huge variety of environments: computer vision, neurosciences, speech recognition, language processing, human-computer interaction, drug discovery, health informatics, medical image analysis, recommender systems, advertising, fraud detection, robotics, games, finance, biotechnology, physics experiments, biometrics, communications, climate sciences, bioinformatics, geographic information systems, etc. etc. Renowned academics and industry pioneers will lecture and share their views with the audience.

Most deep learning subareas will be displayed, and main challenges identified through 23 four-hour and a half courses and 3 keynote lectures, which will tackle the most active and promising topics. The organizers are convinced that outstanding speakers will attract the brightest and most motivated students. Face to face interaction and networking will be main ingredients of the event. It will be also possible to fully participate in vivo remotely.

An open session will give participants the opportunity to present their own work in progress in 5 minutes. Moreover, there will be two special sessions with industrial and recruitment profiles.

ADDRESSED TO:

Graduate students, postgraduate students and industry practitioners will be typical profiles of participants. However, there are no formal pre-requisites for attendance in terms of academic degrees, so people less or more advanced in their career will be welcome as well. Since there will be a variety of levels, specific knowledge background may be assumed for some of the courses. Overall, DeepLearn 2023 Spring is addressed to students, researchers and practitioners who want to keep themselves updated about recent developments and future trends. All will surely find it fruitful to listen to and discuss with major researchers, industry leaders and innovators.

VENUE:

DeepLearn 2023 Spring will take place in Bari, an important economic centre on the Adriatic Sea. The venue will be:

Department of Computer Science
University of Bari “Aldo Moro”
via Edoardo Orabona, 4
70125 Bari

STRUCTURE:

3 courses will run in parallel during the whole event. Participants will be able to freely choose the courses they wish to attend as well as to move from one to another.

Full live online participation will be possible. However, the organizers highlight the importance of face to face interaction and networking in this kind of research training event.
