Call for Papers:
 
WACV workshop on Real-World Surveillance: Applications and Challenges
4th Jan 2022 
Waikoloa, Hawaii, USA
 
https://vap.aau.dk/rws/
 
Computer vision methods trained on public databases demonstrate performance drift when deployed for real-world surveillance, compared to their initial results on the test set of those employed databases. In this workshop, we are interested in papers reporting their experimental results on any application of computer vision in real-world surveillance, challenges they have faced, and their mitigation strategy on topics like, but not limited to:
• Object detection
• Tracking
• Anomaly detection
• Scene understanding
• Super-resolution
• Multimodal surveillance
 
Furthermore, the workshop has a special attention to legal and ethical issues of computer vision applications in real-world scenarios. We therefore also welcome papers describing their methodology and experimental results on legal matters (like GDPR) or ethical concerns (like detecting bias towards gender, race, or other characteristics and mitigating strategies).
