[dbjapan] CFP: IntentVC Challenge @ ACM MM 2025 – Intention-Oriented Controllable Video Captioning

日本データベース学会の皆様 名古屋大学の駒水です． ACM Multimedia 2025 に併設される IntentVC Challenge では、従来の汎用的な動画キャプション生成ではなく、ユーザの“意図”に応じて説明内容を制御できるキャプション生成をテーマとしています。 この分野における新たな方向性として注目されており、アクセシビリティの向上やパーソナライズドな動画理解への応用も期待されています。 ご関心のある方は、以下の詳細をご覧いただき、ぜひご参加をご検討ください。 上位チームには、ACM MM 2025での論文発表の機会も用意されています。 === 以下 Call for Participation === We are excited to invite you to participate in the IntentVC Challenge, held in conjunction with the 33rd ACM International Conference on Multimedia (ACM MM 2025). Website: https://sites.google.com/view/intentvc/ [Challenge Overview] The IntentVC Challenge addresses a fundamental limitation in video captioning by introducing user-controllable, intention-oriented outputs. Unlike traditional approaches that generate general-purpose descriptions, this challenge focuses on creating captions tailored to specific user-defined intentions, enhancing video understanding across various aspects. Participants are encouraged to develop models capable of generating captions that align with different user intentions, thereby improving accessibility, personalization, and adaptability in multimedia applications.
