the success of the previous editions of the Workshop on Computer VISion
for ART Analysis held in 2012, `14, `16, `18 and 20 we present the
VISART VI workshop, in conjunction with the 2022 European Conference on
Computer Vision (ECCV 2022). VISART will continue its role as a forum
for the presentation, discussion and publication of Computer Vision (CV)
techniques for the analysis of art. As with the previous edition,
VISART VI offers two tracks:<br><br> 1. Computer Vision for Art - technical work (standard ECCV submission, 14 pages excluding references)<br> 2. Uses and Reflection of Computer Vision for Art (Extended abstract, 4 pages, excluding references)<br><br>The
recent explosion in the digitisation of artworks highlights the
concrete importance of application in the overlap between CV and art;
such as the automatic indexing of databases of paintings and drawings,
or automatic tools for the analysis of cultural heritage. Such an
encounter, however, also opens the door both to a wider computational
understanding of the image beyond photo-geometry, and to a deeper
critical engagement with how images are mediated, understood or produced
by CV techniques in the `Age of Image-Machines' (T. J. Clark).
Submissions to our first track should primarily consist of technical
papers; our second track, therefore, encourages critical essays or
extended abstracts from art historians, artists, cultural historians,
media theorists and computer scientists.<br><br>The purpose of this
workshop is to bring together leading researchers in the fields of
computer vision and the digital humanities with art and cultural
historians and artists, to promote interdisciplinary collaborations, and
to expose the hybrid community to cutting-edge techniques and open
problems on both sides of this fascinating area of study.<br><br>This
workshop, in conjunction with ECCV 2022, calls for high-quality,
previously unpublished, works related to Computer Vision and Cultural
History. Submissions for both tracks should conform to the ECCV 2022
proceedings style and will be double-blind peer-reviewed by at least
three reviewers. However, extended abstracts will not appear in the
conference proceedings. Papers must be submitted online through the CMT
submission system at:<br><br><a href="https://cmt3.research.microsoft.com/VISART2022/">https://cmt3.research.microsoft.com/VISART2022/</a><br><br>TOPICS include but are not limited to:<br>- Art History and Computer Vision<br>- Image and visual representation in art<br>- Approaches for generative art<br>- 3D reconstruction from visual art or historical sites<br>- 2D and 3D human pose and gesture estimation in art<br>- Multi-modal multimedia systems and human-machine interaction<br>- Multimedia databases and digital libraries for artistic research<br>- Visual Question & Answering (VQA) or Captioning for Art<br>- Interactive 3D media and immersive AR/VR for cultural heritage<br>- Computer Vision and cultural heritage<br>- Big-data analysis of art<br>- Media content analysis and search <br>- Security and legal issues in the digital presentation and distribution of cultural information<br>- Surveillance and Behavior analysis in Galleries, Libraries, Archives and Museums<br><br>INVITED SPEAKERS<br>- Prof. Béatrice Joyeux-Prunel, University of Geneva<br>- Prof. John Collomosse, Principal Scientist, Adobe Research & Professor of Computer Vision, CVSSP, University of Surrey<br>- Prof. Ohad Ben-Shahar, Ben Gurion University<br><br>ORGANIZERS:<br>- Alessio Del Bue, Istituto Italiano di Tecnologia (IIT)<br>- Leonardo Impett, University of Cambridge<br>- Peter Bell, Philipps-Universität Marburg<br>- Noa Garcia, IDS, Osaka University<br>- Stuart James, Istituto Italiano di Tecnologia (IIT) & UCL DH<br clear="all"><br>-- <br><div dir="ltr" class="gmail_signature" data-smartmail="gmail_signature"><div dir="ltr"><font color="#888888"><div dir="ltr"><span style="color:rgb(153,153,153)">Dr Stuart James<br>Researcher (Assistant Professor), Visual Geometry and Modelling (VGM)</span></div><div><span style="color:rgb(153,153,153)">Istituto Italiano di Tecnologia (IIT)<br></span></div><div dir="ltr"><span style="color:rgb(153,153,153)"></span></div><div dir="ltr"><span style="color:rgb(153,153,153)"><br></span></div><div dir="ltr"><span style="color:rgb(153,153,153)">Honorary Research Associate, University College London (UCL)<br></span><span style="color:rgb(153,153,153)"><span><span style="color:rgb(153,153,153)">Affiliate </span></span>Team member, UCL Centre for Digital Humanities (UCLDH)<br><br>Genova, Italy</span></div><div dir="ltr"><span style="color:rgb(153,153,153)">Website: <a href="https://stuart-james.com" target="_blank">https://stuart-james.com</a><br></span></div><div><span><span><span style="color:rgb(153,153,153)">Meet me</span></span>: <a href="http://meetme.stuart-james.com" target="_blank">http://meetme.stuart-james.com</a></span></div></font></div></div></div>
