Computer Graphics Computer Vision & Pattern Recognition

AIMS AND SCOPE
===============
Deep Learning has been the most significant breakthrough in the past 10 years: it has radically changed the research methodology towards a data-oriented approach, in which learning involves all steps of the prediction pipeline. In this context, optimization and careful design of neural architectures play an increasingly important role which directly affects the research pace, the effectiveness of state-of-the-art models and their applicability in production scale.
The ICPR workshop on “Computational Aspects of Deep Learning” fosters the submission of research works that focus on the development of optimized deep neural network architectures and on the optimization of existing ones, also onto highly scalable systems. This includes the training on large-scale or highly-dimensional datasets, the design of novel architectures and operators for increasing the efficacy or the efficiency in feature extraction and classification, the optimization of hyperparameters to enhance model’s performance, solutions for training in multi-node systems such as HPC clusters.
The workshop targets any research field related to pattern recognition, ranging from computer vision to natural language processing and multimedia, in which data and computationally intensive architectures are needed to solve key research issues. The workshop also favors positive criticism on the current data-intensive trends in machine learning and will encourage new perspectives and solutions on the matter. Submissions should address computationally intensive scenarios from the point of view of architectural design, data preparation and processing, operator design, training strategies, distributed and large-scale training. Quantitative comparisons of existing solutions and datasets are also welcome to raise awareness on the topic.
