JMLR Special Topic on Gesture
Recognition
First call for papers
Deadline
August 30, 2011
The Journal of Machine Learning Research is pleased to
announce a new special topic on gesture recognitions.
Papers relevant
to this topic may be submitted to the
journal.
Please also send email to the guest Editors with your paper number at
gesture@ clopinet . com.
We invite
contributions relevant to gesture recognition, including:
-
Algorithms for gesture and activity recognition, in particular
addressing
o Learning from unlabeled or partially labeled data
o Learning from few examples per class, and transfer
learning.
o Continuous gesture recognition and segmentation
o Deep learning architectures, including
convolutional neural networks
o Gesture recognition in challenging scenes,
including cluttered/moving backgrounds or moving cameras, or scenes
where multiple persons are present.
o Integrating information from multiple channels
(e.g., position/motion of multiple body parts, hand shape, facial
expressions).
-
Data representations
-
Applications pertinent to the workshop topic, such as involving:
o Video surveillance
o Image or video indexing and retrieval
o Recognition of sign languages for the deaf
o Emotion recognition and affective computing
o Computer interfaces
o Virtual reality
o Robotics
o Ambiant intelligence
o Games
-
Datasets and benchmarks
The papers of the special topic of
JMLR
will also be reprinted as a book in the CiML series of
Microtome.
Guest Editors: Isabelle Guyon
and Vassilis Athitsos
