Fri Apr 3 00:47:17 EDT 2020

Dear Colleagues

*************************************************************************

Paper Submission Deadline: 15 April 2020 PST

*************************************************************************

Consider submitting your industry papers to the IEEE BigMM 2020. This track
is specifically designed for our industry partners to present different
problems that they are solving leveraging Multimedia Big Data to the
research community. *Works that are done in collaboration between industry
and academia are also eligible for this track. Similar to last year, we
plan to give the best industry paper in this category.*

Kindly share the CFP with other colleagues in your company who may wish to
submit papers to IEEE BigMM 2020, which will be held at Jawaharlal Nehru
University (JNU), New Delhi, in collaboration with Indraprastha Institute
of Information Technology, Delhi (IIIT-Delhi).

In the first round of paper submission at 6th IEEE BigMM 2020, the
acceptance rate was 23%. All regular papers were fairly selected by the
strict review process that guaranteed each paper received at least three
review reports (average: 3.46 reviews; maximum: 4 reviews). Conflict of
interest was also carefully taken into account while assigning the papers
for reviews. Thus, we are committed to carefully and fairly reviewing all
submitted papers and providing high-quality reviews to authors.

We are also excited to inform you that Prof Ramesh Jain from the University
of California, Irvine, USA will deliver a keynote at IEEE BigMM 2020 (
http://bigmm2020.org/) in New Delhi, India. Prof Jain does not need any
introduction. He is commonly referred to as 'Father of Multimedia
Computing'. We expect to have two more eminent researchers from academia
and industry as keynote speakers.
