ICCV 2017 Tutorials: Call for Proposals

ICCV 2017 Tutorials: Call for Proposals 
Proposal Deadline: February 15, 2017
Tutorials Chairs: Tal Hassner and Vittorio Murino
Notification to proposers: March 31, 2017

We solicit proposals for tutorials to be held at the 2017
International Conference on Computer Vision (ICCV 2017). Tutorials
will take place on October 22-23, the days before and after the main
conference.

An ICCV tutorial should aim to give a comprehensive overview of a
specific topic related to computer vision. A good tutorial should be
educational rather than just a cursory survey of techniques. The topic
should be of sufficient relevance and importance to attract
significant interest from the ICCV community. Typical tutorial
audiences consist of graduate students studying computer vision, but
also include researchers and practitioners from both academia and
industry. We invite proposals for both half-day and full-day
tutorials, but anticipate that most tutorials will be half-day unless
the topic is expected to attract widespread community attention or
will require the additional time.

For more information about typical ICCV tutorials, we encourage
potential proposers to consult ICCV tutorial sites from recent years:

    2015: http://pamitc.org/iccv15/tutorials.php
    2013: http://www.pamitc.org/iccv13/tutorials.php

As well as CVPR tutorial websites from:

    2014: http://www.pamitc.org/cvpr14/tutorials.php
    2013: http://www.pamitc.org/cvpr13/tutorials.php

Proposals should be submitted by email to both Chairs
(hassner@isi.edu, vittorio.murino@iit.it), either in plain-text or PDF
format. Proposals will be reviewed by the Tutorial Chairs and
decisions will be sent to selected organizers by March 31, 2017.
