http://iab-rubric.org/fg2021/competition.html

The 2021 IEEE Conference on Automatic Face and Gesture Recognition (FG 2021) is inviting proposals for competitions/hackathons track.

The goal of competitions is to mobilize the research community to solve a challenging problem of relevance to FG. For example, the participants can be expected to compete on a machine learning task of interest to the FG community where the problem and datasets are defined and released by the organizers of the competition.

The goal of hackathons is to encourage fast-paced innovation in an inclusive and agile manner and encourage development of working prototypes/demos that solve a pressing technology problem or a use case of relevance to the FG community.

Proposals may be targeted toward a specific participant demographic (e.g., undergraduate, or graduate students). Interdisciplinary topics that will attract a significant cross-section of the community are especially encouraged.

Relevant Dates:

• Proposal submission deadline – June 15, 2021
• Accept/Reject notice – June 22, 2021
• Competition/Hackathon Track – December 15-18, 2021
