******************************
CALL FOR PAPERS
This is the 6th annual workshop that brings together computer vision
researchers interested in
domain adaptation and knowledge transfer techniques.

A key ingredient of the recent successes in computer vision has been the
availability of visual
data with annotations, both for training and testing, and well-established
protocols for evaluating
the results. However, this traditional supervised learning framework is
limited when it comes to
deployment on new tasks and/or operating in new domains. In order to scale
to such situations,
we must find mechanisms to reuse the available annotations or the models
learned from them.

******************************
TOPICS
TASK-CV aims to bring together research in transfer learning (TL), domain
generalization (DG) and
domain adaptation  (DG) for computer vision and invites the submission of
research contributions on
the following topics:

- TL/DA/DG learning methods for challenging paradigms like unsupervised,
self-supervised, incremental,
and online learning;
- TL/DA/DG focusing on specific visual features, models or learning
algorithms;
- TL/DA/DG applied for procedural learning (e.g. state-action pairs,
reinforcement learning);
- TL/DA/DG in the era of convolutional neural networks (CNNs), adaptation
effects of fine-tuning,
regularization techniques, transfer of architectures and weights, etc;
- TL/DA/DG focusing on specific computer vision tasks (e.g., image
classification, object detection,
semantic segmentation, recognition, retrieval, tracking, etc.) and
applications (biomedical, robotics,
multimedia, autonomous driving, etc.);
- Comparative studies of different TL/DA/DG methods;
- Working frameworks with appropriate datasets and evaluation protocols to
assess TL/DA/DG methods;
- Transferring part representations between categories;
- Transferring tasks to new domains;
- Solving domain shift due to sensor differences (e.g., low-vs-high
resolution, power spectrum sensitivity)
and compression schemes;
- Extensions of few- and zero-shot learning approaches across domains.

This is not a closed list; thus, we welcome other interesting and relevant
research for TASK-CV.
