The purpose of the International Symposium on Visual Computing (ISVC) is
to provide a common forum for researchers, scientists, engineers and
practitioners throughout the world to present their latest research
findings, ideas, developments and applications in the broader area of
visual computing. ISCV seeks papers describing contributions to the
state of the art and state of the practice in the broad field of visual
computing. The symposium will be structured around four central areas of
visual computing: (1) computer vision, (2) computer graphics, (3) virtual
reality, and (4) visualization.

ABOUT SYMPOSIUM LOCATION
ISVC06 will take place in the beatiful Lake Tahoe which provides easy
access from either Reno/Lake Tahoe International Airport (about 45min
driving time) or from Sacramento International Airport (about 90min
driving time). Lake Tahoe is often referred to as the perfect year round
vacation destination with terrific weather and breathtaking scenery. Split

Subject: CFP : 4th Int ws on Adaptive Multimedia - Switzerland - 17MAR2006
AMR 2006 - 4th International Workshop on Adaptive Multimedia Retrieval
27-28 July 2006, University of Geneva, Switzerland
http://viper.unige.ch/amr2006/
*SUBMISSION NOW OPEN*
The 4th International Workshop on Adaptive Multimedia Retrieval will be
held on 27-28 July 2006 at the University of Geneva, Switzerland.
So far, several approaches have been developed that tackle specific
problems of the retrieval process, e.g. feature extraction methods for
multimedia data, query languages, problem-specific similarity measures
and interactive user interfaces. However, in most cases the user still
needs several steps in order to find the searched objects. The main
reasons for this are on the one hand, the users' difficulty in
specifying their interests in the form of a well defined query (which is
partially caused by inappropriate user interfaces), on the other hand,
the problem of extracting relevant features from the multimedia objects.
Furthermore, user specific interests and the search context are usually
neglected when objects are retrieved.
To improve today's retrieval tools and thus the overall satisfaction of
a user, it is necessary to develop intelligent methods that are able to
support the user in the search process, e.g. by providing additional
user adapted information about the search results as well as the data
collection itself and especially by adapting the retrieval tool to the
user's needs and interests. The goals of the workshop are to intensify
the exchange of ideas between different research communities, to provide
an overview of current activities in this area and to point out
connections between the diverse involved research communities and
research in AI.
TOPICS OF INTEREST:
The workshop focuses especially on researchers that are working on
feature extraction techniques for multimedia, computer linguistic
approaches, (dynamic) data analysis methods, and visualization methods
as well as user interface design. Therefore, contributions to the
workshop should focus on, but are not limited to:
- Multimedia retrieval systems (for text, image, audio, video and
mixed-media)
- Theoretical foundations of multimedia retrieval and mining
- Intelligent multimedia data modelling, indexing and structure extraction
- Adaptive Hypermedia and web based systems
- Metadata for multimedia retrieval
- Multimedia and multi-modal mining
- Semantic content analysis for multimedia
- Semantic web and ontologies
- Adaptive query languages
- Similarity measures (especially user adaptive measures)
- User and preference modelling (including feedback models)
- Methods for adaptive data visualization and user interfaces
