Special Issue

Deadline Extension: New deadline is October 31st, 2018.

The authors of the papers accepted at the workshop will be invited to extend their work towards a journal paper and submitted to the IJCV special issue on Generating Realistic Visual Data of Human Behavior.

Scope: We seek for contributions describing new methodologies allowing to generate either static or dynamic visual representations containing or modifying attributes of humans (e.g. body, body parts, faces, etc). Contributions based on deep neural architectures are welcome, as well as methods based on parametric models. The expected topic of the contributions include, but are not limited to, following items:

  • Generation of faces and modification of their attributes (e.g. age, expression).
  • Generation of human bodies or crowds for behavior analysis.
  • Synthesis of visual data representing individual and collective human activities.
  • Deep generative models for image/video generation of human behavior.
  • Parametric models for the synthesis of faces/bodies.
  • Generation of multi-modal (vision and beyond) human behavioral data.
  • Exploration of text-based descriptions linked with visual representation generation.
  • Applications (e.g. surveillance, autonomous driving, fashion, robotics).

Submission: Submitted papers should present original, unpublished work, relevant to one of the topics of the Special Issue. All submitted papers will be evaluated on the basis of relevance, significance of contribution, technical quality, scholarship, and quality of presentation, by at least three independent reviewers. It is the policy of the journal that no submission, or substantially overlapping submission, be published or be under review at another journal or conference at any time during the review process. Manuscripts will be subject to a peer reviewing process and must conform to the authors guidelines available on the IJCV website (link "Instructions for Authors" on the right panel). Manuscripts can be submitted to visi.edmgr.com, by selecting: S.I. : Generating Realistic Visual Data of Human Behavior.

Deadline: Manuscripts must be submitted by September 30th October 31st, 2018.
