Connectionists: Call for Papers-ECCV Workshop on Imbalance Problems in Computer Vision (IPCV)

[Barış Can Çam]

Hi,


We are organizing a workshop on imbalance problems in computer vision in
ECCV 2020. Details are provided below,



**ECCV Workshop on Imbalance Problems in Computer Vision (IPCV)**

28 August 2020, Glasgow

https://sites.google.com/view/ipcv2020/

**Dates:**

Paper submission: 7 July 2020

Notification: 28 July 2020

Camera ready: 7 August 2020

Workshop: 28 August 2020

**Workshop Theme and Scope**

Performance of learning-based methods is adversely affected by imbalance
problems at various levels, including the input, intermediate or mid-level
stages of the processing or the objectives to be optimized in a multi-task
setting. Currently, researchers tend to address these challenges in their
particular context with problem-specific solutions and with limited
awareness of the solutions proposed for similar challenges in other
computer vision problems.

Imbalance problems can arise in  almost all computer vision problems and
therefore, the workshop is highly relevant and interesting for a broad
community. A recent, comprehensive review paper on imbalance problems in
object detection (IEEE TPAMI, 2020; preprint:
https://arxiv.org/abs/1909.00169)  cites over 200 papers which were written
by 655 unique authors. We interpret these numbers (which are specific to
just one computer vision task, namely, object detection) as strong
indicators of interest in imbalance problems.

We invite contributions for (i) the dissemination of approaches developed
in individual problems, as well as (ii) discussing commonalities between
these approaches for developing better and more general solutions for
addressing imbalance problems in computer vision.

**Paper Submission**

Paper template and length: Please follow ECCV2020 format and guidelines.
