The Fifteenth INTERNATIONAL WORKSHOP ON

COMPUTATIONAL INTELLIGENCE FOR MULTIMEDIA UNDERSTANDING (IWCIM 2027)

June 6 - June 9, 2027, Bordeaux, France


Scope of the Workshop

The International Workshop on Computational Intelligence for Multimedia Understanding (IWCIM) is the annual workshop organized by the working group Multimedia Understanding through Semantics, Computation and Learning (MUSCLE) of the European Research Consortium for Informatics and Mathematics (ERCIM). This year, IWCIM 2027 takes place as a special session of IEEE ISCAS 2027, to be held in Bordeaux, France, on June 6 - 9, 2027.

Multimedia understanding is an essential part of many intelligent applications in our daily lives, whether in our households or commercial, industrial, service, and scientific environments. Analyzing data acquired from a multitude of multimodal sensors to provide them with semantics is essential to exploit their full potential. Multimodal and cross-modal analyses are the only ways to utilize them at their best. This workshop aims at disseminating original research outcomes in the field of computational intelligence specifically targeted for multimedia understanding. To this end, recent computational approaches, such as deep learning, foundation and generative models, and quantum computing will be explored for various applications, including but not limited to digital twins. The IWCIM Special Session at ISCAS 2027 seeks to function as an interdisciplinary platform that invites researchers from the circuits and systems community to contribute and gain insights from complementary fields, including machine learning, computational intelligence, and multimedia understanding. The scope of IWCIM 2027 includes, but is not limited to the following topics:

  • Multisensor systems
  • Multimodal analysis
  • Crossmodal data analysis and clustering
  • Mixed-reality applications
  • Activity and object detection/recognition
