日本データベース学会の皆様 （重複して受け取られた場合はご容赦ください） NECの劉です． お世話になっております． 来年4月に台北で開催されるIEEEが主催する第2回マルチメディア・ビッグデータ に関する国際会議(BigMM2016)の論文募集をご案内させて頂きます． 締切は12/31(木)です． ※再度延長の予定は無し 皆様からのご投稿をお待ちしております． BigMM2016は， マルチメディア分野と流行りのビッグデータを融合した若い国際 会議ですが，これからのビッグデータは，映像や画像などのマルチメディアデー タが中心となり，ビッグデータ全体の６０％以上を占めると予測されていますの で，BigMMがますますメジャーの１つ国際会議となるのではないかと思います． BigMM2016では，マルチメディアを中心としたビッグデータに関わるメディア解 析や，データベースシステム，ネットワーク，プライバシー等に関するトピック を幅広く扱っています． 締切までに2週間以上ありますので，皆様の手頃の研究成果がありましたら，ぜ ひ投稿をご検討頂ければ幸いです． ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Please accept our apologies if you receive multiple copies of the CFP. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ CALL FOR PAPERS (PAPER SUBMISSION DEADLINE EXTENDED TO 12/31/2015) The Second IEEE International Conference on Multimedia Big Data (BigMM 2016) April 20-22, 2016 Taipei, Taiwan http://www.BigMM.org Multimedia is increasingly becoming the ?biggest big data? as the most important and valuable source for insights and information. It covers from everyone?s experiences to everything happening in the world. As such, multimedia big data is spurring on tremendous amount of research and development of related technologies and applications. The IEEE International Conference on Multimedia Big Data (BigMM), jointly sponsored by the IEEE-TCMC (Technical Committee on Multimedia Computing) and IEEE-TCSEM (Technical Committee on Semantic Computing), is a world?s premier forum of leading scholars in the highly active multimedia big data research, development and applications. The second BigMM conference hosted by Asia University will be held in Taipei, Taiwan from April 20 to 22 in 2016. The conference solicits high-quality original research papers in any aspect of multimedia big data. Topics include, but are not limited to: - New theory and models for multimedia big data computing - Ultra-high efficiency compression, coding and transmission of multimedia big data - Content analysis and mining of multimedia big data - Semantic retrieval of multimedia big data - Deep learning and cloud computing for multimedia big data - Green computing for multimedia big data (e.g., high efficiency storage) - Security and privacy in multimedia big data - Interaction, access, visualization of multimedia big data - Multimedia big data systems - Novel and incentive applications of multimedia big data in various fields (e.g., search, healthcare, life sciences, manufacturing, industry 4.0, transportation, and retail) SUBMISSIONS Regular Papers and Industry Papers - Authors are invited to submit a regular paper (two-column 8 pages maximum) or an industry paper (two-column 6 pages maximum) according to the guidelines available on the BigMM 2016 website. Demonstration Papers - Authors are invited to submit a demonstration paper (two-column 2 pages maximum) according to the guidelines available on the BigMM 2016 website. BigMM Challenge - Each year, the organizing committee will organize an algorithmic competition to address one grand challenge in the field of multimedia big data which is open to all tool vendors, academics and corporations. More information is available on the BigMM 2016 website. Workshops Proposals - The organizing committee invites proposals for workshops to be held in conjunction with the conference. These will focus on specific topics of the main conference. More information is available on the BigMM 2016 website. BigMM 2016 will showcase high quality oral and poster presentations as well as demonstration sessions. The review will be double blind and at least three reviewers are required. Best papers and demonstrations will be awarded at the conference. All papers in this conference will be included in the IEEExplore and indexed by EI. Authors of high quality papers will be invited to submit an extended version to special issues on "Multimedia Big Data" in prestigious journals including IEEE Transactions on Multimedia.
