ICTS4eHealth 2019 - 4th edition of the IEEE International Workshop on ICT
Solutions for e-Health

Communications (ISCC)
===========================================================================
MISSION:
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
e-Health is one of the major research topics that have been attracting
cross-disciplinary research groups. The deployment of new emerging ICT
technologies for Health, especially based on Cloud computing, Internet of
Things (IoT), and Computational Intelligence, is attracting the interest of
many researchers.
The use of Cloud computing, IoT technologies, and methods typical of Soft
Computing and Computational Intelligence have been very prominent recently
and can be of great help in finding good solutions to many practical
healthcare applications.
For instance, health monitoring, health data storage, health data
collection, mobile health, pervasive health, healthcare monitoring,
telemedicine, context-aware computing, ubiquitous computing, processing
health data in the cloud, securing health data in the cloud and Assistive
Technology (AT) are areas of interest that are being addressed using cloud
computing and IoT techniques. On the other hand, several challenging issues
have raised due to the adoption of such emerging technologies. These
include the quality of health data, the ability to retrieve information and
use it in health context, as for example in tasks related to machine
learning, knowledge discovery, decision support, regression, forecasting,
optimization, feature selection, and additionally privacy and security
issues of health data while being processed in the cloud, availability of
health data, models of context and tele-monitoring of contextual
applications.

March 21, 2019 - dataset online
March 28, 2019 - submission deadline
April 15, 2019 - results online
This contest is devoted to image matching using local image descriptors.
In order to test descriptor effectiveness for real-world scenarios, we
have built an image pair dataset including non-trivial transformations
induced by relevant viewpoint changes with respect to either planar or
non-planar scenes. The evaluation metrics will be based on the exact
overlap error for the planar case, and on a patch-wise approximation
to it for the non-planar case.
Participants will be able to download the local image patches from which
to extract descriptors. The matched descriptor pairs, formatted according
to the submission instructions, will be sent for evaluation to the official
e-mail of the contest. Results will be published online within two weeks
after the deadline. The most interesting descriptors will be selected for
possible publication in the forthcoming Special Issue "Local Image
Descriptors
in Computer Vision" of the international journal IET COMPUTER VISION.

The CAIP2019 Organizing Committee invites proposals for workshops and
tutorials in conjunction with the 18th International Conference on
Computer Analysis of Images and Patterns. The workshops and tutorials
will be held as side events of the main conference.
*Proposals for Workshop*
The CAIP2019 workshops will provide forums where participants will have
opportunities to discuss technical topics and actively share ideas. The
topics of the workshops should be at the frontiers of academic research
or important applications in the domain of computer vision and pattern
recognition. Each proposal will be assessed for its scientific content,
structure and relevance. Cogently, good proposals would encourage
discussion and interaction between the participants, achievable in a
several ways, e.g., through presentations of submitted work, panel
discussions and hands-on sessions.

2019, set to February 14, 2019 is approaching fast.
Please find below the CfP. We do hope you will find it interesting.
Please accept our deepest apologies if you receive multiple copies.
We do thank you very much for your kind attention.

AI4H:B2E 2019 - IEEE Special Track on Artificial Intelligence for
Healthcare: from black box to explainable models
Instituto Maimónides de Investigación Biomédica de Córdoba, Spain June
05-07 2019 - http://www.ai4hb2e.icar.cnr.it/
in conjunction with the 32nd IEEE CBMS International Symposium on
Computer-Based Medical Systems (IEEE CBMS 2019)
====================================================================
MISSION:
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
The special track on “Artificial Intelligence for Healthcare: from black
box to explainable models” - AI4H:B2E 2019 - aims at bringing together
researchers from academia, industry, government and medical centers in
order to present the state of the art and discuss the latest advances in
the emerging area of the use of Artificial Intelligence (AI) and Soft
Computing (SC) techniques in the fields of medicine, biology, healthcare
and wellbeing.
In general, in recent years, methods based on AI and SC have proved to be
extremely useful in a wide variety of areas, and are becoming more and more
widespread, in some cases a sort of a “de facto” standard.
Currently, many of the algorithms on offer are often black box in nature
(defined as a system which can be viewed in terms of its inputs and outputs
without any knowledge of its internal workings). This may not be an issue
for certain practical AI solutions in healthcare, yet in other systems it
may indeed be a serious limitation. This holds true when a clear
explanation should be provided to a user about the reasons why a solution
is proposed by an AI-based system. In fact, if the predictive models are
not transparent and explainable, we lose the trust of experts such as
healthcare practitioners. Moreover, without access to the knowledge of how
an algorithm works we cannot truly understand the underlying meaning of the
output.
Given the above general framework, AI4H:B2E is expected to cover the whole
range of methodological and practical aspects related to the use of AI and
SC in Healthcare:
- we request papers that explore methods to combine state-of-the-art data
analytics for exploiting the huge data resources available, while ensuring
that these systems are explainable to domain experts. This will result in
systems that not only generate new insights but are also more fully trusted.
- we also request papers that describe more generally the successful
application of AI and SC methodologies to issues as machine learning, deep
learning, knowledge discovery, decision support, regression, forecasting,
optimization and feature selection in the healthcare, biology, medicine and
wellbeing domains.
TOPICS:
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
The topics of interest include, but are not limited to:
- explainable AI models:
- Rule and Logic Based Explanation;
- Deep Learning and methods to explain Hidden Layers;
- Assistive Technology (AT);
- Recommender Systems;
- Natural Language for Explanation;
- Visualisation & Interactive Interfaces;
- the general application of AI and SC methodologies, in Health, Biology
and Medicine to issues such as:
- Knowledge Management of Health Data;
- Data Mining and Knowledge Discovery in Healthcare;
- Machine and Deep learning approaches for Health Data;
- Decision Support Systems for Healthcare and Wellbeing;
- Optimization for Healthcare problems;
- Regression and Forecasting for medical and/or biomedical signals;
- Healthcare Information Systems;
