CALL FOR PAPERS
International Workshop on Multi-Modal Deep Learning: Challenges and
Applications (MMDLCA 2020), January 11, 2021 (
https://medical-and-multimedia-lab.github.io/MMDLCA2020/)

In conjunction with the 25th International Conference on Pattern
Recognition (ICPR 2020), Milan, Italy, January 10-15, 2021 (
https://www.micc.unifi.it/icpr2020/)

INFORMATION ON MMDLCA
Deep learning is now recognized as one of the key software engines that
drives the new industrial revolution. The majority of current deep learning
research efforts have been dedicated to single-modal data processing.
Pronounced manifestations are deep learning based visual recognition and
speech recognition. Although significant progress made, single-modal data
is often insufficient to derive accurate and robust deep models in many
applications. Our digital world is by nature multi-modal, that combines
different modalities of data such as text, audio, images, animations,
videos and interactive content. Multi-modal is the most popular form for
information representation and delivery. For example, posts for hot social
events are typically composed of textual descriptions, images and videos.
For medical diagnosis, the joint use of medical imaging and textual reports
is also essential. Multi-modal data is common for human to make accurate
perceptions and decisions. Multi-modal deep learning that is capable of
learning from information presented in multiple modalities and consequently
making predictions based on multi-modal input is much in demand.

This workshop calls for scientific works that illustrate the most recent
progress on multi-modal deep learning. In particular, multi-modal data
capture, integration, modelling, understanding and analysis, and how to
leverage them to derive accurate and robust AI models in many applications.
It is a timely topic following the rapid development of deep learning
technologies and their remarkable applications to many fields. It will
serve as a forum to bring together active researchers and practitioners to
share their recent advances in this exciting area. In particular, we
solicit original and high-quality contributions in: (1) presenting
state-of-the-art theories and novel application scenarios related to
multi-modal deep learning; (2) surveying the recent progress in this area;
and (3) developing benchmark datasets and evaluations. We welcome
contributions coming from various communities (i.e., visual computing,
machine learning, multimedia analysis, distributed and cloud computing,
etc.) to submit their novel results.

TOPICS
The list of topics includes, but not limited to:
• Multi-modal intelligent data acquisition and management
• Multi-modal benchmark datasets and evaluations
