Workshop on deidentification for privacy protection in multimedia DeID2015 Call for Papers

Name: Workshop on deidentification for privacy protection in multimedia Abb.: DeID2015 Dates: May 4 or 8, 2015 Submission deadline: 12 January 2015 Notifications: 9 February, 2015 Camera ready: 18 February, 2015 URL: http://luks.fe.uni-lj.si/deident/ Note: Held in conjunction with IEEE FG 2015 CALL FOR PAPERS De-identification in multimedia content is the process of concealing the identities of individuals captured in a given set of data (images, video, audio, text), for the purpose of protecting their privacy. The fact that a person can be identified through different characteristics such as the facial appearance, voice, silhouette or gait, indicates that the de-identification process offers interdisciplinary challenges, involving various scientific areas such as image processing, speech analysis, video tracking and biometrics. The workshop aims to address issues related to de-identification including scientific, technical, legal, ethical and societal aspects of person de-identification and reversible de-identification in multimedia content. The workshop seeks to bring together researchers, professionals, and practitioners to present and discuss recent developments and challenges in De-identification in Multimedia Content. Topics of interest include (but are not limited to): • De-identification methods for biometric identifiers o still face image de-identification, o face de-identification in video, o speaker de-identification, o gait and gesture de-identification, o fingerprint de-identification o de-identification and reversible de-identification • De-identification of soft biometric identifiers o tattoo, birthmark and scar de-identification, o silhouette de-identification, o age and gender de-identification, o eye color, height and weight de-identification • Non-biometric data de-identification o de-identification of dressing style, o de-identification of hairstyle, o de-identification of speech context and specific social and political context • Ethical, societal and legal aspects of de-identification and reversible de-identification • Other techniques for privacy protection in multimedia content Important dates: Paper submission: January 12, 2015 Notification of acceptance: February 9, 2015 Camera-ready deadline: February 18, 2015 Paper Submission: Prospective authors are invited to submit original and unpublished work, in English, with up to 6 pages. Submissions will be accepted only in PDF format and should follow the instructions provided on the workshop web site. Accepted papers will be included in the Proceedings of IEEE FG2015 & Workshops and send for inclusion in IEEE Xplore.
