CALL FOR DOCTORAL SYMPOSIUM SUBMISSIONS
International Conference on Multimedia Retrieval
April, 1-4, 2014, Glasgow, UK
http://www.icmr2014.org/
Submissions Due: December 14, 2013
****************************************************************************
Objective
---------
The ICMR 2014 Doctoral Symposium plans to bring together Ph.D.
students working on topics related to multimedia and information
retrieval. The Doctoral Symposium will take place during the main
conference in oral presentation format. The goal is to provide a forum
for Ph.D. students to present ongoing research in a collaborative
environment and to share ideas with other renowned and experienced
researchers. Participants will discuss their research ideas and
results, and they will receive constructive feedback from an audience
consisting of peers as well as more senior people. It will be an
excellent opportunity for developing person-to-person networks to the
benefit of the community and Ph.D. students in their future careers.
Eligibility
-----------
Prospective student attendees should already have a clear direction
for research, and possibly have published some results. Preference
will be given to students who have advanced to Ph.D. candidacy.
Review Process and Publication
------------------------------
Review is single-blind. Selections will be based on a 4 page abstract,
singly authored by the student wishing to attend. Submissions will be
reviewed by the members of the Doctoral Symposium Committee. Accepted
proposals will the be published as a 1-page publication in the
proceedings (part of the ACM Digital Library).
Doctoral students who submit to the Doctoral Symposium are encouraged
to submit a paper on their research to the main conference. However,
acceptance for participation in the Symposium will be based solely on
the abstract written ad hoc for the event. All abstracts will be
reviewed with respect to overall quality of presentation, potential
for future impact of the research on the field, and expected benefit
to the other doctoral students attending the Doctoral Symposium.
Submission Guidelines
---------------------
Applications to the Doctoral Symposium should include a 4-page
abstract summarizing the applicant's dissertation research. The
abstract should include:
* Motivation, problem description
* Background and related work (including key references).
* Novelty and significance relative to the state of the art
* Approach, data, methods and proposed experiments
* Results obtained and work in progress
* Specific research issues for discussion at the Doctoral Symposium.
Added to the application, a 1-page appendix should describe the
benefits that would be obtained by attending the Symposium, including:
* A statement by the student saying why they want to attend the Symposium.
* A statement by their advisor saying how the student would benefit by
attending the Symposium. Advisors should also specifically state
whether the student has written, or is close to completing, a thesis
proposal (or equivalent), and when they expect the student would
defend their dissertation if they progress at a typical rate.
Submissions must be written in English and submitted in the ACM
Conference style (for LaTeX, use the "Option 2" style). The paper
should be no more than 4 pages in length including all figures and
references. The first page must contain the title of the paper, full
author name, affiliation and contact details, an abstract of up to 250
words, ACM Computing Reviews categories, and up to 3 keywords
describing the topic areas. Information about categories and keywords
can be found in the ACM Web pages on the computing classification
system and in the LaTeX and Word templates.
