​>>> Submission deadline: 24 July 2017​
Energy minimization methods have become an established computational paradigm in computer vision and pattern recognition. EMMCVPR is a regular bi-annual conference dedicated to advancing the state of the art in this field. This year marks the 20th anniversary of the foundation of the workshop series, with the inaugural meeting having taken place in Venice in 1997, and we will celebrate it by bringing it back to Venice.
The conference will be co-located with ICCV 2017, the International Conference on Computer Vision.
The scientific program will include the presentation of invited plenary talks and contributed research papers.
Topics of interest include but are not limited to:
- Discrete and continuous optimization
- Convex programming and relaxations
- PDE and variational methods
- Stochastic optimization
- Spectral methods
- Graphical models and markov random fields
- Statistical methods and learning
- Graph-theoretic ​and network-based ​methods
- Analysis of deep architectures
- Adversarial and game-theoretic models
Application areas include but are not limited to:
- Object recognition and detection
- Scene understanding
- Segmentation and grouping
- Restoration and inpainting
- Color and texture
- Computational photography
- Photo and video editing
- Motion and tracking
- Matching and registration
- Medical image analysis
- Pose estimation
- Action and event recognition
- Shape analysis
- Shape-from-X
- Stereo and 3D reconstruction
- Multiview geometry
- Vision for graphics
​Paper submission
All papers (not exceeding 14 pages) must be submitted electronically at the conference website. All submissions will be subject to a rigorous peer-review process. Accepted papers will appear in the workshop proceedings, which will be published in Springer’s Lecture Notes in Computer Science (LNCS) series​ after the conference.​
