Connectionists: 2nd CfP: The 3rd Workshop on "Precognition: Seeing through the Future" @ CVPR 2021

[Nemanja Djuric]

Call for Workshop Papers

The 3rd Workshop on "Precognition: Seeing through the Future"
in conjunction with
The 34th IEEE/CVF Conference on Computer Vision and Pattern Recognition
(CVPR 2021)
Virtual conference, June 19th-25th, 2021
https://sites.google.com/view/ieeecvf-cvpr2021-precognition

=================

Despite its potential and relevance for real-world applications, visual
forecasting or precognition has not been in the focus of new theoretical
studies and practical applications as much as detection and recognition
problems. Through the organization of this workshop we aim to facilitate
further discussion and interest within the research community regarding
this nascent topic.

The workshop will discuss recent approaches and research trends not only in
anticipating human behavior from videos, but also precognition in multiple
other visual applications, such as: medical imaging, health-care, human
face aging prediction, early event prediction, autonomous driving
forecasting, and so on. In addition, this workshop will give an opportunity
for the community in both academia and industry to meet and discuss future
work and research directions. It will bring together researchers from
different fields and viewpoints to discuss existing major research problems
and identify opportunities in further research directions in both research
topics and industrial applications.

This is the third Precognition workshop organized at CVPR. It follows very
successful workshops organized in 2019 and 2020, which featured talks from
researchers across a number of industries, insightful presentations, and
large attendance. For full programs, slides, posters, and other resources,
please visit the websites of Precognition 2019 and Precognition 2020,
linked at the workshop website.

=================

Topics:

The workshop focuses on several important aspects of visual forecasting.
The topics of interest for this workshop include, but are not limited to:
- Early event prediction
- Activity and trajectory forecasting
- Multi-agent forecasting
- Human behavior and pose prediction
- Human face aging prediction
- Predicting frames and features in videos and other sensors in autonomous
driving
- Traffic congestion anomaly prediction
- Automated Covid-19 prediction in medical imaging
- Visual DeepFake prediction
- Short- and long-term prediction and diagnoses in medical imaging
- Prediction of agricultural parameters from satellite imagery
- Databases, evaluation and benchmarking in precognition

=================

Submission Instructions:

All submitted work will be assessed based on their novelty, technical
quality, potential impact, insightfulness, depth, clarity, and
reproducibility. For each accepted submission, at least one author must
attend the workshop and present the paper. There are two ways to contribute
submissions to the workshop:

- Extended abstracts submissions are single-blind peer-reviewed, and author
names and affiliations should be listed. Extended abstract submissions are
limited to a total of four pages. Extended abstracts of already published
works can also be submitted. Accepted abstracts will be presented at the
poster session, and will not be included in the printed proceedings of the
workshop.

- Full paper submissions are double-blind peer-reviewed. The submissions
are limited to eight pages, including figures and tables, in the CVPR
style. Additional pages containing only cited references are allowed
(additional information about formatting and style files is available at
the website). Accepted papers will be presented at the poster session, with
selected papers also being presented in an oral session. All accepted
papers will be published by the CVPR in the workshop proceedings.
