IEEE International Conference on Advanced Video and Signal-based Surveillance (AVSS) is the leading conference venue for the underlying theory, methods, systems, and applications of video and signal based surveillance. AVSS invites submissions in areas listed below, especially on cross-disciplinary and game-changing subjects. The list of topics of interest includes, but is not limited to:

SENSOR-CENTRIC PROCESSING:

Sensors (visible/infrared/3D/mm wave/audio/radio, etc.)
Ground, airborne, satellite based (fixed/mobile /UAV)
Crowdsourcing (cellular/social networks)
Calibration and positioning (GPS, etc.)
Communications and networked sensing
Distributed camera networks and smart cameras
Participatory sensing

PROCESSING, DETECTION, TRACKING & RECOGNITION:

Modelling and feature selection
Detection and estimation (change/motion/anomaly/saliency/pattern)
Data association and (multi) target tracking
Classification and recognition
Multi-modal fusion

VISUALIZATION AND INTERACTION CONCEPTS FOR SURVEILLANCE SYSTEMS

Compression and summarization
Archival, search and retrieval
Human-computer interfaces
Visualization algorithms
Mobile and distributed interaction

ANALYTICS, SITUATION AWARENESS & DECISION MAKING

Activity/interaction analysis and monitoring
Intention estimation and situation awareness
Crowdsourcing-based methods
Cognitive dynamic systems and bio-inspired methods

SECURITY & PRIVACY

Data authenticity
Privacy in surveillance
Attacks on surveillance vulnerabilities
Forensics
Biometrics (standoff, multi-modal, voice, etc.)
Cybersecurity for surveillance (wireless, network, computer)
Advanced biometrics at a distance

SURVEILLANCE SYSTEMS AND APPLICATIONS

Hardware and software architectures
Research prototypes
Simulators
Civilian, industrial, and military
Transportation (road, rail, air, maritime)
Performance evaluation

Prospective authors are invited to submit high-quality full papers representing original results in all areas of video and signal-based surveillance. Submissions and final papers are limited to eight pages in double-column IEEE format, including figures, tables, and references. Accepted papers are published in the conference proceedings that will be also available in the IEEE Xplore digital library.

Opportunity for CVIU Special Issue Publication

High quality AVSS'19 papers (including the best papers) will be invited for submission to a Special Issue of Elsevier Computer Vision and Image Understanding (CVIU) journal, which will go through the CVIU review process.

IEEE Computer Society Open Conference Statement

Equity, Diversity, and Inclusion are central to the goals of the IEEE Computer Society and all of its conferences. Equity at its heart is about removing barriers, biases, and obstacles that impede equal access and opportunity to succeed. Diversity is fundamentally about valuing human differences and recognizing diverse talents. Inclusion is the active engagement of Diversity and Equity.

A goal of the IEEE Computer Society is to foster an environment in which all individuals are entitled to participate in any IEEE Computer Society activity free of discrimination. For this reason, the IEEE Computer Society is firmly committed to team compositions in all sponsored activities, including but not limited to, technical committees, steering committees, conference organizations, standards committees, and ad hoc committees that display Equity, Diversity, and Inclusion.

IEEE Computer Society meetings, conferences and workshops must provide a welcoming, open and safe environment, that embraces the value of every person, regardless of race, color, sex, sexual orientation, gender identity or expression, age, marital status, religion, national origin, ancestry, or disability. All individuals are entitled to participate in any IEEE Computer Society activity free of discrimination, including harassment based on any of the above factors.

IEEE Event Conduct and Safety Statement

IEEE believes that science, technology, and engineering are fundamental human activities, for which openness, international collaboration, and the free flow of talent and ideas are essential. Its meetings, conferences, and other events seek to enable engaging, thought provoking conversations that support IEEE’s core mission of advancing technology for humanity. Accordingly, IEEE is committed to providing a safe, productive, and welcoming environment to all participants, including staff and vendors, at IEEE-related events.

IEEE has no tolerance for discrimination, harassment, or bullying in any form at IEEE-related events. All participants have the right to pursue shared interests without harassment or discrimination in an environment that supports diversity and inclusion. Participants are expected to adhere to these principles and respect the rights of others.

IEEE seeks to provide a secure environment at its events. Participants should report any behavior inconsistent with the principles outlined here, to on site staff, security or venue personnel, or to eventconduct@ieee.org
