Our apologies for cross posting SMC-2012 Call for Papers
*The First International Workshop on Social Multimedia Computing* (*SMC2012*) will be held at Melbourne, Australia, in conjunction with 2012 IEEE International Conference on Multimedia & Expo, which is a flagship conference in the multimedia field. The theme of this workshop is *Social multimedia computing: challenges, techniques and applications*. Its goal is to present a concise reference of state-of-the-art efforts in social multimedia computing, and in particular the entailed opportunities and challenges fostering some interesting future developments in social multimedia computing research and applications. Papers are solicited in the above workshop theme, including (but not limited to) the following topics, covering the general scope of social multimedia computing: theoretical underpinnings and computational infrastructure of social multimedia computing; multimedia social network analysis, in particular on large-scale datasets; social multimedia search, especially the search and ranking algorithms from collaboratively tagged images, and online user-generated videos; social multimedia mining and learning from user data (e.g., users’ behaviors, or preferences), social context (e.g., social network, and relationships) and socially collected data (e.g., collaboratively tagged data, videoblogs and microblogs); multimedia communication and networking by utilizing multimedia social network analysis; the design and development of new multimedia social interaction tools; privacy and copyright issues over social multimedia data； distributed/parallel algorithms and paradigms for large-scale social multimedia computing, and novel and challenging applications of social multimedia (e.g., interactive services and entertainment, social services and security applications); Submission Guidelines Authors are invited to submit a full paper (two column format, 6 pages) according to the guidelines available on the main conference website. The review will be double blind and at least three reviewers are required. Only electronic submissions will be accepted. Accepted papers must be registered and presented; otherwise they will not be included in the IEEE Xplore Library.
