The  IVMSP 2020 technical program will highlight a series of Special Sessions to complement the regular program with new or emerging topics of particular interest to the image, video, and multi-dimensional signal processing community. Prospective organizers of Special Sessions should submit proposals with the following information using the template that can be downloaded here.

1. Title  of the proposed special session
2. Motivation, indicating the novelty of the topic and any possible interdisciplinary flavor
3. Short biography of the organizers
4. List of at least four (4) tentative contributed papers (including titles, authors, contact information of the corresponding author, and a short abstract). Upon acceptance of the special session proposal, the contributed papers will be submitted in the same format as regular papers. Organizers should not contribute more than one paper.

Proposals will be evaluated based on the timeliness of the topic and on the qualifications of the organizers and of the authors of the contributed papers as well.

The papers in each accepted Special Session will undergo a review process, similar to the other regular papers. It is the responsibility of the organizers to ensure that their Special Session papers meet IVMSP quality standards. In case a paper in a Special Session does not meet the expected quality, it will be rejected and an effort will be made to draw papers from the regular submission process to fill in the gap. If too many papers for a given Special Session are not accepted in the review process and we are unable to find suitable substitutes from the regular review pool, the Special Session may be canceled. In such a case, the accepted papers from a canceled Special Session will be placed into the regular program.

Proposals should be sent in PDF to the Special Session chairs at the following address; specialsessions@ivmsp.org. Any other inquiries may be sent to the same e-mail address.

We recommend that you use the Word file or LaTeX files to produce your document, since they have been set up to meet the formatting guidelines required. The LaTeX environment files specify suitable margins, page layout, text, and a bibliography style.

Papers may be no longer than six (6) pages, including figures, tables and references.

Given the double-blind review process, authors should not know the names of the reviewers of their papers, and reviewers should not know the names of the authors. Please prepare your paper in a way that preserves the anonymity of the authors.

• Do not put the authors’ names or affiliations under the title.
• Avoid using phrases such as “our previous work” when referring to earlier publications by the authors.
• Remove information that may identify the authors in the acknowledgments (e.g., co-workers and grants).
• Avoid providing links to websites that identify the authors.

2020 IEEE IVMSP requires each accepted paper to be presented by one of the authors in-person at the conference site according to the schedule published. One of the authors must register for the conference at one of the non-student rates offered, and must register before the deadline given for author registration. Any paper accepted into the technical program, but not presented on-site will be withdrawn from the official proceedings archived on IEEE Xplore.

By submitting a manuscript, the authors guarantee that it is not previously published or under review elsewhere in substantially similar form. Furthermore, no paper which contains significant overlap with the contributions of the submission should be submitted during the review period to either a journal or a conference. If there are papers that may appear to violate any of these conditions, then it is the authors’ responsibility to (a) cite these papers (preserving anonymity), (b) argue in the body of your paper why your paper is nontrivially different from these concurrent submissions, and (c) include anonymized versions of those papers with the submission.
