================
- Workshop proposal deadline: June 19th, 2020
- Notification to workshop organizers: July 3rd, 2020

You may have to consider the following schedule if the papers in your

Due to the COVID-19 pandemic, ACCV2020 will be held as a completely
online conference on the planned dates, Nov 30th to Dec 4th, 2020. The
organizing committee is committed to taking this opportunity to make
ACCV2020 a widely visible open conference. Your contributions and
participation will be key to its success!

We solicit proposals for workshops to be held together with the 2020
Asian Conference on
Computer Vision (ACCV 2020). The workshops will take place on December
3rd and 4th
after the main conference. The purpose of workshops is to provide a
comprehensive forum on
the topics that will not be fully explored during the main conference
and to encourage in-depth
discussion of technical and application issues. The ACCV 2020
organizers will collect workshop
registrations, provide facilities, and distribute workshop proceedings.

Due to space and time limitations, as well as to encourage diversity
of topic coverage, we will
only be able to retain a limited number of proposals. Therefore, we
encourage the workshop
organizers to submit proposals that are specific and detailed in
justifying relevance and viability.

Proposals should be submitted in PDF format by email to
accv2020-workshopchairs at googlegroups.com by Friday, June 19th, 2020
[11.59 pm JST].

notification is on September 18th, 2020.

1. TECHNICAL INFORMATION

conference may limit the number of posters based on available space.
- Special space or equipment requests, if any.

conference googles-sheet for producing program/app information.
