================

The British Machine Vision Conference (BMVC) is one of the major
international conferences on computer vision and related areas. It is
organised by the British Machine Vision Association (BMVA). The 33rd
BMVC will now be a hybrid event from 21st-24th November 2022. Our
local in person meeting will be held at The Kia Oval (Home of Surrey
County Cricket Club, https://events.kiaoval.com/).

Authors are invited to submit full-length high-quality papers in image
processing, computer vision, machine learning and related areas for
BMVC 2022. Submitted papers will be refereed on their originality,
presentation, empirical results, and evaluation quality. Accepted
papers will be included in the conference proceedings published and
DOI-indexed by BMVA. Past proceedings can be found online:
here https://britishmachinevisionassociation.github.io/bmvc.

Please note that BMVC is a single-track meeting with oral and poster
presentations. The abstract submission deadline is Friday 22nd July
2022, and the paper submission deadline is Friday 29th July 2022 (both
23:59, UTC). Submission instructions are available on the BMVC 2022
websitehttps://bmvc2022.org/. Submitted papers should not exceed 9
pages (references are excluded, but appendices are included).

Topics include, but are not limited to:

  *   2D object recognition
  *   3D computer vision
  *   3D object recognition
  *   Action and behaviour recognition
  *   Adversarial learning, adversarial attack and defence methods
  *   Biometrics, face, gesture, body pose
  *   Computational photography
  *   Datasets and evaluation
  *   Efficient training and inference methods for networks
  *   Explainable AI, fairness, accountability, privacy, transparency
      and ethics in vision
  *   Image and video retrieval
  *   Image and video synthesis
  *   Image classification
  *   Low-level and physics-based vision
  *   Machine learning architectures and formulations
  *   Medical, biological and cell microscopy
  *   Motion and tracking
  *   Optimisation and learning methods
  *   Pose estimation
  *   Representation learning
  *   Scene analysis and understanding
  *   Transfer, low-shot, semi- and unsupervised learning
  *   Video analysis and understanding
  *   Vision + language, vision + other modalities
  *   Vision applications and systems, vision for robotics and
      autonomous vehicles
  *   "Brave new ideas"


Papers submitted under the "Brave new ideas" subject area are expected
to move away from incremental benchmark gains. Proposed ideas should
be radically different from the current strand of research or propose
a novel problem.

Reviewing process BMVC 2022

  * At least three reviewers will review each paper. The primary AC
  will also provide a meta review, summarising the points that must be
  addressed during the rebuttal phase.

  * The authors will have a period to produce a rebuttal to address
  the reviewer's concerns. Due to the tight schedule, there will be no
  revision of the papers before the final camera ready submission.

  * The rebuttal will be handled by two ACs, a primary and a
  secondary, who will facilitate paper discussion and jointly make the
  recommendations. Conflicts will be jointly managed by the ACs and
  Program Chairs that will make the final decisions.

Please Note: Due to the anticipated volume of papers for BMVC 2022
(based on recent year's experience) there will be NO extension granted
to the submission deadline. In keeping with conferences in the field
(e.g. NeurIPS,
CVPR) and to cope with
the increasing number of submissions, we ask that all authors be
prepared to review papers and make use of a compulsory abstract
submission deadline a week before the paper submission deadline. The
CMT submission site will ask authors to acknowledge this commitment
and failure to engage with the reviewing process might be grounds for
rejection.

Any queries to the Programme Chairs should be sent to
