Connectionists: Special session: Bio-inspired circuits, systems and algorithms for multimedia - CBMI-2021 (Lille)

[Teresa Serrano]

*Special session: Bio-inspired circuits, systems and algorithms for 
multimedia in conjunction with CBMI-2021 (June 28-30)*

CBMI aims at bringing together the various communities involved in all aspects of content-based multimedia indexing for retrieval, browsing, management, visualization and analytics. The Special Session on bio-inspired circuits, systems and algorithms will be a mini-venue, focusing on the state-of-the-art and research direction of the emerging field of bio-inspired circuits, systems and algorithms and in the envisioned applications and breakthrough that the application of this bioinspired technology and algorithms can bring to the content-based multimedia indexing field development.

Special session papers, which can be invited or submitted, will supplement the regular research papers and be included in the proceedings of CBMI 2021.

The special session would include four to five papers, which can be invited, or regular submissions. In order to ensure the high quality of all conference papers, all papers submitted to the special session will be peer-reviewed through the standard review process, including invited papers. If the special session has many high-quality submissions, some of the submissions may potentially be moved to some regular sessions.

Authors are encouraged to submit previously unpublished research papers including bioinspired circuits, systems and algorithms that address the use of the bioinspired technology and algorithms in the areas of search and retrieval, multimedia content management, user interaction, large-scale search, learning in retrieval, social media indexing and retrieval, surveillance and security. Other applications areas of interest to the CBMI community not listed above maybe considered.

Submissions of papers for special sessions are open on EasyChair:https://easychair.org/conferences/?conf=cbmi2021. Please select the special session you apply to in the submission form.

*STUDENT PARTICIPATION:*
We strongly encourage students to participate in CBMI-21 event and submit their research. We strongly believe in their power, and they are the future of the research in content-based multimedia indexing. For these reasons and for the first time in the history of the conference, the 2021 edition of CBMI with support of ACM SIGMM (www.sigmm.org), will sponsor several students, authors of papers submitted and accepted by CBMI-21, and being corresponding author of a paper. The student status will be recognized only to PhDs and master students. Certain students will be totally sponsored, including registration fees, accommodations and travel expenses. Other students will be partly sponsored, including substantial reduction in the registration fees, no cut-backs to the students’ conference experience, and budget accommodation options and arrangement for room sharing.

Furthermore, in this edition, prizes will be awarded to the best student poster presentations of CBMI2021. All the participants registered to CBMI2021 as student will be automatically admitted to the selection for the awards. All the papers accepted as poster presentation by the Technical Program Committee (TPC), from students will be considered for the awards, given that a full-paper manuscript has been submitted.

The student poster awards committee will evaluate the nominated contributions during the poster sessions of CBMI2021. The evaluation criteria will be independently established by the Committee before the conference and will take into account the scientific content as well as the technical quality of the posters.

The Student Poster Awards will be announced during the Gala Dinner, on June 29th.

*Instructions to authors:*

Special sessions papers will be included in the CBMI proceedings like 
regular papers. The CBMI proceedings are traditionally indexed and 
distributed by IEEE Xplore and ACM DL. In addition, authors of certain 
best papers of the conference will be invited to submit extended 
versions of their contributions to a special issue of a leading journal 
in the field (e.g. MTAP - Springer), and other best papers will be 
invited to submit extended versions of their contributions in a book 
(ISTE/WILEY publisher).
