SUBMISSION SITE
===============https://openreview.net/group?id=thecvf.com/CVPR/2026/Workshop/AI4VA
WORKSHOP OVERVIEW
=================
AI4VA explores how computer vision perceives, interprets, and models abstraction across artistic and cultural imagery — paintings, comics, sculptures, and installations that challenge the assumptions of conventional models. These stylized domains expose weaknesses in robustness, generalization, and interpretability, providing a principled framework for evaluating perception beyond realism.
TOPICS OF INTEREST
==================
- Robust segmentation & depth estimation in stylized imagery
- Saliency detection in narrative visual forms
- Vision–language alignment in art interpretation
- Generative models & 3D modeling from artworks
- Provenance tracking & authenticity verification
- Watermark robustness in AI-generated art
- Computer vision for museum analysis & digitization
- Art restoration & preservation using computer vision
- AI ethics, authorship & responsible AI in creative contexts
- Multimodal reasoning in art & cultural heritage
- Art & animation
- Any AI × Visual Art intersection
