1st International Workshop on Interactive Video Search and Exploration Call for Papers
We invite researchers and practitioners in computer vision,
information retrieval, and human-computer interaction to participate
in the
1st International Workshop on Interactive Video Search and Exploration
(IViSE 2025), held in conjunction with CVPR 2025.
Date: June 11 - June 15
Location: CVPR 2025 @ Nashville TN

Workshop Overview
The field of video understanding and retrieval has made significant
strides in recent years, but current AI-driven methods struggle with
long-form video content. IViSE 2025 aims to address this challenge by
exploring human-machine teaming approaches for video search and
question answering (QA). This workshop will serve as a venue to
compare "fully automated" approaches with "interactive,
human-in-the-loop" systems for video retrieval. The focus will be on
real-world scenarios involving large-scale video archives, bridging
gaps between machine learning, computer vision, and user-centered
interactive search strategies. IViSE 2025 Challenge: Text-Based Video
Retrieval and Question Answering The IViSE 2025 challenge will use
the Vimeo Creative Commons Collection (V3C) dataset—comprising
7,475 videos with a total duration of 1,000 hours—to evaluate
state-of-the-art methods in: 1
Fully-Automated Track Queries are provided in advance. Participants
develop end-to-end AI-based video retrieval and QA systems. Solutions
are evaluated on accuracy and retrieval effectiveness. 2
Interactive Track Queries are presented during the workshop. Teams
must solve tasks in real-time within five minutes, leveraging
human-machine collaboration. Inspired by the Video Browser Showdown
and Lifelog Search Challenge:
Known-Item Search (KIS): Given a textual description, retrieve the
correct video segment and time interval.
Question Answering (QA): Answer a question based on a textual
description of a video. Both tracks will use standardized evaluation
metrics and build upon existing benchmarks such as TRECVID & DVU for
automated search, and Video Browser Showdown for interactive
retrieval. Why Participate? Advance the field of long-form video
retrieval and exploration. Benchmark your methods against
cutting-edge AI and interactive systems. Engage with leading
researchers in computer vision, video retrieval, and interactive
search. Compete in a structured challenge format with an emphasis on
both fully automated & interactive approaches and also in a
high-impact challenge at CVPR 2025. Important Dates
