Mission:

Cameras are ubiquitous due to the proliferation of mobile devices. Most of these cameras are embedded in networked mobile computing devices with ever increasing computational power, providing infrastructure to develop smart environments that support a wide range of new functionality. Emerging applications of computer vision have great potential for innovation in these areas. The focus of this workshop is on exploring the new opportunities and challenges of computer vision technologies in mobile and smart environments. The workshop provides a forum to researchers to identify critical problems and propose effective novel solutions in this emerging area.

Call for Papers:

Computer vision is essential for providing rich interactive experiences to users in mobile and smart environments. In particular, visual recognition, 3D modeling, tracking, human computer interaction, interactive vision and visualization, and multimodal integration are some of the key technologies for progress in the area. Submissions in all areas of computer vision and pattern recognition in mobile and smart environment are welcome. Key areas include, but are not limited to:
  • Mobile mixed reality
  • Mobile and internet vision
  • Mobile video games
  • Mobile perceptual interfaces
  • Human action/activity analysis
  • Multimodal vision system
  • Mobile computational photography
  • Mobile visual information retrieval and search
  • Mobile visual computing for social networks
  • Multiple-view analysis and 3D models
  • Computational methods for multiple sensor fusion
  • Interactive image/video parsing/annotation/analysis
  • Human computer interaction
  • Soft-biometrics in mobile and smart environments
  • Emotion, gesture, expression analysis
  • Audio-visual personal identification
  • Mobile vision for visually impaired
  • Other Mobile-related applications
Submission and Review Policy for Regular Papers:

In submitting a manuscript to this workshop, the authors acknowledge that no paper substantially similar in content has been submitted to another conference or workshop before or during the review period.  Submission and review process should follow the standard ICCV main conference submissions. Please refer to the following files on ICCV'2011 main conference site for detailed formatting instructions:

A complete paper should be submitted using the above templates, which are blind-submission review-formatted templates. The strict page limit is 8 pages. There's no additional charge even if the paper is 7 or 8 pages long.. Please follow the paper submission web site at https://cmt.research.microsoft.com/IWMV2011/ to submit your manuscript to the Regular Paper Track. Each paper will be reviewed by at least three reviewers from the program committee.
Submission and Review Policy for Demo Papers:
We solicit demo submissions. Please submit your demo proposal through https://cmt.research.microsoft.com/IWMV2011/ to the Demo Paper Track. The proposal should be no more than 2 pages to describe your demo system. Each demo paper will be reviewed by at least three reviewers from the program committee. We also plan to have the demo paper to be included in the conference proceedings. For questions regarding demo submission, please email Dr. Yun Fu at yunfu@buffalo.edu.
