ICPR 2022 Challenges Call for Papers

ICPR 2022 Call for Challenges

 

The ICPR 2022 Challenges Co-Chairs invites proposals for challenges to
be held within the framework of the 26th International Conference on
Pattern Recognition, which is to be held at Montréal, Québec
(QC), Canada during August 21-25, 2022. The aim of the challenges is
to advance algorithm and method development in Pattern Recognition by
objective evaluation on common datasets. The challenge organizers are
responsible for providing good quality data and defining objective
evaluation criteria that are applied to the results of submitted
algorithms.
