Short Paper Call for Participation
IEEE VIS 2024 solicits submissions in a short paper format. The Short Papers committee welcomes submissions describing original work. The work should focus on concise research contributions, incremental work such as follow-up extensions, evaluations of existing methods, replication studies, or exploratory work. The committee also welcomes papers describing new systems or tools that offer practical value.
Short Papers often fall into one or more of five main categories: technique or algorithm, system or tool, application or design study, empirical study, theory, or model. The contributions of a short paper should be commensurate with the nature of the paper. Technique or algorithm papers should provide clear yet concise technical contributions. System or tool papers should state the value, articulate the target audience, and make an effort toward accessibility (e.g., software release). Papers focusing on visualization applications or design studies should demonstrate lessons learned or insights gleaned for visualization research on which future contributors can build. Empirical study papers should justify the validity and importance of the results, including, where appropriate, the definition of hypotheses, tasks, data sets, the rigorous collection and examination/analysis/coding of data, the selection of subjects and cases, as well as validation, discussion, and conclusions.
Theory or model papers should illuminate how visualization techniques complement and exploit properties of human vision and cognition, as well as how researchers conduct effective and rigorous visualization studies.
The short paper submission deadline is April 30, 2024, creating an opportunity to showcase late-breaking research results.
Submission Guidelines:
Short papers can be up to four pages plus up to one page of references. Submissions will be in the VGTC conference two-column format, in line with the IEEE VIS formatting guidelines.
https://tc.computer.org/vgtc/publications/conference/
Short Papers allow single-blind (not anonymized) or double-blind (anonymized) submissions while reviewers’ identities are not revealed. Authors may choose whether to anonymize their submission or not. Double-blind submissions must NOT include author names or institutions on the cover page of the initial submission, and authors should make an effort to ensure that there is no revealing information in the text, such as apparent citations to authors’ previous work, or making acknowledgments to colleagues of long standing.
Publication Details:
Accepted short papers will be presented at the VIS conference. They will also be included in the conference proceedings and published in IEEE Xplore and assigned a DOI.
Authors of accepted short papers may subsequently submit to TVCG a full paper on the same topic, consistent with the TVCG standard requiring that papers previously published in conference proceedings make additional substantial scientific contributions that build upon the material of the conference publication or include this material as a part of a larger research effort. The authors are encouraged to mention this in their cover letter, provide a copy of the previous conference submission, and outline the added contributions. Providing these materials will help TVCG reviewers to better gauge the scientific value of the work and defuse any possible misconceptions. TVCG papers, including the ones presented as VIS short papers, can be presented at IEEE VIS.
Scientific work builds naturally on previous work, including work published as a short paper at VIS. Accepted VIS short papers can contribute to VIS full paper submissions in a future year. But, such submissions should not contain verbatim copies of previous content. Furthermore, any subsequent full paper submission to VIS must represent a novel scientific contribution.
Important Dates:
Submission Deadline: April 30, 2024 (no separate abstract deadline)
Notification: June 15, 2024
Submission of Camera-Ready Final Version: August 8, 2024
All deadlines are at 11:59pm (23:59) AoE Anywhere on Earth (AoE).

> inheriting the tradition of JSPP,SACSIS,and ACSI. It solicits
> contributions from a wide range of fields related to computing systems,
> infrastructures, and programming, spanning all areas covered by the
> sponsoring special interest groups (cross-SIG).
>
> The main objectives of xSIG are to provide a forum to present and
> discuss research ideas among researchers spanning many fields and to
> raise young researchers through a globally standard peer review process.
> In particular,
>
> - We hope authors of xSIG workshop to advance their research based on
> feedback received and step up to submitting their work to
> international conferences and journals. We do not publish
> workshop proceedings. The papers presented in xSIG will be available
> only to the audience during the workshop. For those who want to
> publish their work, we collaborate with IPSJ Transactions on ACS for
> Special Issue on xSIG.
>
> - We hope to give authors substantial feedback as well as a place for
> young researchers to practice/improve writing papers for review,
> through the globally standard conference format of submitting papers
> for review, receiving/writing reviews, discussing papers in the
> program committee meeting, etc. For this, we establish
> Young Program Committee alongside the regular Program
> Committee and welcome the participation of young researchers
> including students to it, for "an early exposure" of motivated
> students to peer review work normally done by senior researchers.
>
> - We award many students.
>
> From 2020, xSIG is co-located with SWoPP event (Summer United Workshops
> on Parallel, Distributed and Cooperative Processing), in which many SIGs
> on computing systems held workshops.

CALL FOR PAPERS
The DASFAA 2024 Workshop on Emerging Results in Data Science and
Engineering (ERDSE 2024)
July 2nd, 2024
Nagaragawa Convention Center, Gifu City, Japan
Various systems and services, including generative AI, built on massive
amounts of data, are revolutionizing our society. For their development,
not only technologies related to data science, such as machine learning,
but also data engineering techniques for efficiently managing large
amounts of data are essential. In order for them to be accepted by
society, various aspects of data management, such as privacy, security,
and fairness, must also be taken into consideration. This workshop aims
to provide an opportunity for presentations and discussions, especially
for young researchers and students, in the area of the convergence of
data science and data engineering, where many new research topics and
results are emerging.
The topics of the workshop include, but are not limited to:
Data Science and AI: Large Language Models (LLM), Explainable AI (XAI),
Interpretable Machine Learning
Data Engineering and Databases: Big Data, Graph Data, Data Security,
Data Privacy
Information Retrieval and Recommendation: Social Media, Information
Credibility, Polarization and Echo Chambers
Multimedia Data: Media Understanding, AI Generated Content, Multimodal

[Scope and Objectives]
xSIG (cross-disciplinary workshop on computing Systems, Infra-
structures, and programminG) is a workshop from 2017,
inheriting the tradition of JSPP,SACSIS,and ACSI. It solicits
contributions from a wide range of fields related to computing systems,
infrastructures, and programming, spanning all areas covered by the
sponsoring special interest groups (cross-SIG).
The main objectives of xSIG are to provide a forum to present and
discuss research ideas among researchers spanning many fields and to
raise young researchers through a globally standard peer review process.
In particular,
- We hope authors of xSIG workshop to advance their research based on
feedback received and step up to submitting their work to
international conferences and journals. We do not publish
workshop proceedings. The papers presented in xSIG will be available
only to the audience during the workshop. For those who want to
publish their work, we collaborate with IPSJ Transactions on ACS for
Special Issue on xSIG.
- We hope to give authors substantial feedback as well as a place for
young researchers to practice/improve writing papers for review,
through the globally standard conference format of submitting papers
for review, receiving/writing reviews, discussing papers in the
program committee meeting, etc. For this, we establish
Young Program Committee alongside the regular Program
Committee and welcome the participation of young researchers
including students to it, for "an early exposure" of motivated
students to peer review work normally done by senior researchers.
- We award many students.
From 2020, xSIG is co-located with SWoPP event (Summer United Workshops
on Parallel, Distributed and Cooperative Processing), in which many SIGs
on computing systems held workshops.

DBJAPANの皆様
ABC2024の看護行動ビデオからの行動認識チャレンジですが、参加申し込み締め切りが3/6です。
十分申し込みは集まっておりますが、今一度アナウンスさせていただきます。
*** Call For Challenge Participants ***
Dear Researchers/Authors,
You are invited to participate in the 6th ABC Challenge (
https://abc-research.github.io/challenge2024), in conjunction with the 6th
International Conference on Activity and Behavior Computing at Nakatsu and
Kitakyushu, Japan (Hybrid), on May 28 - 31, 2024.
The 6th ABC Challenge is the Activity Recognition of Nurse Training
Activity Using Skelton and Video Dataset with Generative AI. Activity types
are each action of Endotracheal suctioning.
https://abc-research.github.io/challenge2024/
The dataset will provide the skeleton data for training/testing and the
video data only during the training.
The skeleton data include many data which recognized only partial parts of
the body due to camera location limitations.
Participants are required to use a Generative AI or LLMs (hereafter,
Generative AI) in a creative way.
Participants are required to recognize activities based on skeletal data.
Since the data collection was a practical experiment, camera locations were
limited by not showing the face, the size of the room, etc. Therefore, it
is not possible to recognize all of the body parts, and many skeleton data
had missing body parts. Additionally, Generative AI has been a hot topic in
recent years and its momentum will continue to increase. In order to
explore the potential for use in the field of activity recognition,
participants are required to utilize Generative AIs in a creative way.
Endotracheal suctioning (ES) is a necessary practice carried out in such as
intensive care units or even in a home by the family of patients. It
involves the removal of pulmonary secretions from a patient with an
artificial airway in place. The procedure is associated with complications
and risks including bleeding, and infection. Therefore, there is a need to
develop an activity recognition system that can ensure the safety of
patients as well as reflect to improve their skills while they conduct this
complicated procedure. Activity recognition can be used to aid nurses in
better managing and increasing the quality of their work, as well as
evaluate their performance when they conduct ES. The activity recognition
is the initial stage to determine the order of actions and assess the
nurse’s skills.
CHALLENGE GOAL & TASK
The goal of this challenge is to recognize 9 activities in Endotracheal
suctioning (ES) by using skeleton data for training/testing and video only
for training. In this challenge, participants are required to use a
Generative AI in a creative way. For evaluation, we will consider the F1
score and the paper contents. We will consider the average F1 score for all
the subjects.
The data we provide is a part of the dataset used in our previous work,
entitled “Toward Recognizing Nursing Activity in Endotracheal Suctioning
Using Video-based Pose Estimation” [1]. The authors of this work proposed
an algorithm to define and track the main subject. Also, missing keypoints
problems due to the performance of the pose estimation algorithm are
improved by smoothing keypoints.

Inoue: “Toward Recognizing Nursing Activity in Endotracheal Suctioning
Using Video-based Pose Estimation”, The 5th International Conference on
Activity and Behavior Computing, 2023, (Germany).
DATASET OVERVIEW
There are two types of data in this dataset:
Video: recorded from the front side of the nurse beyond the patient
mannequin. This video will be published only during training.
Pose Skeleton (keypoints): extracted from videos by using YOLOv7. This data
will be published for training and testing.
There are a total of 9 activities in the ES procedure. All the activities
are listed in the below table.
9 Activity types in endotracheal suctioning and their id are below,
{ 0: “Catheter preparation”, 1: “Temporal removement of an artificial
airway”, 2: “Suctioning phlegm”, 3: “Refitting the artificial airway”, 4:
“Catheter disinfection”, 5: “Discarding gloves”, 6: “Positioning”, 7:
“Auscultation”, 8: “Others” }

https://abc-research.github.io/
(Please send an empty email to abc2024(a)sozolab.jp to get updates!)
Human Activity Recognition has been researched in thousands of papers so
far, with mobile / environmental sensors in ubiquitous / pervasive domains,
and with cameras in vision domains. As well, Human Behavior Analysis is
also explored for long-term health care, rehabilitation, emotion
recognition, human interaction, and so on. However, many research
challenges remain for realistic settings, such as complex and ambiguous
activities / behavior, optimal sensor combinations, (deep) machine
learning, data collection, platform systems, and killer applications.
In this conference, we comprehend such research domains as ABC: Activity
and Behavior Computing, and provide an open and a confluent place for
discussing various aspects and the future of the ABC.

CALL FOR NTCIR-18 TASK PROPOSALS
(Task Proposals Due: February 9, 2024)
We are delighted to announce the call for task proposal of NTCIR-18.
NTCIR (NII Testbeds and Community for Information Access Research) is
a series of evaluation conferences that mainly focus on information
access with East Asian languages and English. The first NTCIR
conference (NTCIR-1) took place in August/September 1999, and the
latest NTCIR-17 conference was held in December 2023. Research teams
from all over the world participate in one or more NTCIR tasks to
advance the state of the art and to learn from one another's
experiences.
Now it is time to call for task proposals for the next NTCIR (NTCIR-18
) which will start in March 2024 and conclude in June 2025. Task
proposals will be reviewed by the NTCIR Program Committee, following
the schedule below:
* IMPORTANT DATES:
Feb 9, 2024 Task Proposal Submission Due (Anywhere on Earth)
Mar 8, 2024 Acceptance Notification of Task Proposals
* DETAILS OF CALL FOR TASK PROPOSAL & SUBMISSION LINKS:
https://easychair.org/cfp/ntcir18proposalhttps://easychair.org/conferences/?conf=ntcir18proposal
* NTCIR-18 TENTATIVE SCHEDULE:
Mar 2024: Kickoff Event
May 2024: Dataset release*
Jun-Dec 2024: Dry run*
Sep 2024-Feb 2025: Formal run*

Feb 1, 2025: Task overview release (draft)
Mar 1, 2025: Submission due of participant papers (draft)
May 1, 2025: Camera-ready participant paper due
Jun 10-13 2025: NTCIR-18 Conference
(* indicates that the schedule can be different for different tasks)
* WHO SHOULD SUBMIT NTCIR-18 TASK PROPOSALS?
We invite new task proposals within the expansive field of information
access. Organizing an evaluation task entails pinpointing significant
research challenges, strategically addressing them through
collaboration with fellow researchers (including co-organizers and
participants), developing the requisite evaluation framework to propel
advancements in the state of the art, and generating a meaningful
impact on both the research community and future developments.
Prospective applicants are urged to underscore the real-world
applicability of their proposed tasks by utilizing authentic data,
focusing on practical tasks, and solving tangible problems.
Additionally, they should confront challenges in evaluating
information access technology, such as the extensive number of
assessments needed for evaluation, ensuring privacy while using
proprietary data, and conducting live tests with actual users.
In the era of large language models (LLMs), these models are
anticipated to significantly influence daily human activities.
Nonetheless, the content produced by LLMs often exhibits issues, such
as hallucinations. NTCIR-18 specifically encourages tasks that focus
on evaluating the quality of content generated by LLMs.
* PROPOSAL TYPES:
We will accept two types of task proposals:
- Proposal of a Core task:
This is for fostering research on a particular information access
problem by providing researchers with a common ground for evaluation.
New test collections and evaluation methods may be developed through
the collaboration between task organizers (proposers) and task
participants. At NTCIR-17, the core tasks are Lifelog-5, QA Lab-
PoliInfo-4, MedNLP-SC, SS-2, and FinArg-1 (Details can be found at
http://research.nii.ac.jp/ntcir/NTCIR-17/tasks.html).
- Proposal of a Pilot task:
This is recommended for organizers who propose to focus on a novel
information access problem and there are uncertainties either in task
designing or organization. It may focus on a sub-problem of an
information access problem and may attract a smaller group of
participating teams than core tasks. However, it may grow into a core
challenging task in the next round of NTCIR. At NTCIR-17, the pilot
tasks are FairWeb-1, Transfer, UFO, and ULTRE-2 (Details can be found
at http://research.nii.ac.jp/ntcir/NTCIR-17/tasks.html).
Organizers are expected to run their tasks mainly with their own
funding and to make the task as self-sustaining as possible. A part of
the fund can be supported by NTCIR, which is called "seed funding". It
is usually used for some limited purposes such as hiring relevance
assessors. The amount of seed funding allocated to each task varies
depending on requirements and the total number of accepted tasks.
Typical cases would be around 1M JPY for a core task and around 0.5M
JPY for a pilot task (note that the amount is subject to change).
Please submit your task proposal as a pdf file via EasyChair by Feb 9,
2024 (Anywhere on Earth).
https://easychair.org/conferences/?conf=ntcir18proposal
* TASK PROPOSAL FORMAT:
The proposal should not exceed six pages in A4 single-column format.
The first five pages should contain the main part and appendix, and
the last page should contain only a description of the data to be used
in the task. Please describe the data in as much detail as possible so
that we can help your data release process after the proposal is
accepted. In the past NTCIRs, it took much time to create memorandums
for data release, which sometimes slowed down the task organization.

- Task type (core or pilot)
- Abstract
- Motivation
- Methodology
- Expected results
Appendix

permission to release the data yet, please describe your plan to get
the permission.)
- Distribution
(Please describe how you plan to distribute the data to participants.
There are mainly three choices: distributed by the data provider,
distributed by organizers, and distributed by NII.)
- Legal / Ethical issues
(If the data can cause legal or ethical problems, please describe how
you propose to address them. e.g. some medical data may need approval
from an ethical committee. e.g. some Web data may need filtering for
excluding discriminative messages.)
If you want NII to distribute your data to task participants on behalf
of you, please send an email to ntc-admin(a)nii.ac.jp prior to your task
proposal submission attaching the task proposal.
