All papers will be submitted for inclusion in the IEEEXplore Digital Library. The conference proceedings will be submitted for EI indexing through INSPEC by IEEE.
• Outstanding accepted papers in this special session will be invited to be extended and published in the special issues of Big Data Mining and Analytics (Impact Factor: 13.6).

List of Topics

The general aim of this special session is to address visual and textual tasks emerging from a computational perspective, by overcoming challenges in the computing domain and building artifacts that usefully process vision and language.

Topics of interest include but are not limited to:

• Visual Tasks (e.g., Computational Imaging, Computational Photography, Computer Vision...)
• Textual Tasks (e.g., Natural Language Processing, Computational Social Science...)
• Vision-Language Tasks

Submission Guidelines

Submission Instructions

• Step 1: Login and enter CIVIL @ DSAA 2024 in EasyChair. Website: https://easychair.org/conferences/?conf=civildsaa2024
• Step 2: Select your role as "author". From the top menu, click the "New Submission" button.
• Step 3: Enter your paper information and then use the "Submit" button at the bottom of the form.

Paper Length, Formatting, and Reviewing

• The length of each paper submitted should be no more than 10 pages, and formatted following the standard 2-column U.S. letter style of IEEE Conference template. See the IEEE Proceedings Author Guidelines for further information and instructions.
• All submissions will be blind reviewed by the Program Committee on the basis of technical quality, relevance to the conference's topics of interest, originality, significance, and clarity. Author names and affiliations must not appear in the submissions, and bibliographic references must be adjusted to preserve author anonymity. Submissions failing to comply with paper formatting and authors anonymity will be rejected without reviews.
• Because of the double-blind review process, non-anonymous papers that have been issued as technical reports or similar cannot be considered for DSAA'2024. An exception to this rule applies to arXiv papers that were published in arXiv at least a month prior to DSAA'2024 submission deadline. Authors can submit these arXiv papers to DSAA provided that the submitted paper's title and abstract are different from the one appearing in arXiv.

Venue

The conference will be held in San Diego, CA, United States, October 6th-10th, 2024.
