Obtaining accurate measurements is insufficient, as one needs to establish the circumstances under which these values generalize, or give appropriate error bounds for these measures. This is becoming particularly relevant to patient safety as many research groups and companies have deployed or are aiming to deploy ML technology in clinical practice. The purpose of this workshop is to develop awareness and encourage research on uncertainty modelling to ensure safety for applications spanning both the MIC and CAI fields. In particular, this workshop invites submissions to cover different facets of this topic, including but not limited to: detection and quantification of algorithmic failures; processes of healthcare risk management (e.g. CAD systems); robustness and adaptation to domain shifts; evaluation of uncertainty estimates; defence against noise and mistakes in data (e.g. bias, label mistakes, measurement noise, inter/intra-observer variability). The workshop aims to encourage contributions in a wide range of applications and types of ML algorithms. The use or development of any relevant ML methods are welcomed, including, but not limited to, probabilistic deep learning, Bayesian nonparametric statistics, graphical models and Gaussian processes. We also aim to ensure broad coverage of applications in the context of both MIC and CAI, which are categorized into reporting problems (descriptions of image contents) such as diagnosis, measurements, segmentation, detection, and enhancement problems (addition of information) such as image synthesis, registration, reconstruction, super-resolution, harmonisation, inpainting and augmented display. Scope We accept submissions of original, unpublished work on safety and uncertainty in medical imaging, including (but not limited to) the following areas: * Uncertainty quantification in any MIC or CAI applications * Risk management of ML systems in clinical pipelines * Out-of-distribution and anomaly detection * Defending against hallucinations in enhancement tasks (e.g. super-resolution, reconstruction, modality translation) * Robustness to domain shifts * Measurement errors * Modelling noise in data (e.g. labels, measurements, inter/intra-observer variability) * Validation of uncertainty estimates * Active Learning * Confidence bounds * Posterior inference over point estimates * Bayesian deep learning * Graphical models * Gaussian processes * Calibration of uncertainty measures * Bayesian decision theory Submission Format Submissions must be 8-page papers (excluding references) following the Springer LNCS format<https://nam04.safelinks.protection.outlook.com/?url=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.springer.com%2Fgp%2Fcomputer-science%2Flncs%2Fconference-proceedings-guidelines&data=05%7C02%7Cuai%40engr.oregonstate.edu%7C447eba897562439ad5a108dc73c0c871%7Cce6d05e13c5e4d6287a84c4a2713c113%7C0%7C0%7C638512519044441320%7CUnknown%7CTWFpbGZsb3d8eyJWIjoiMC4wLjAwMDAiLCJQIjoiV2luMzIiLCJBTiI6Ik1haWwiLCJXVCI6Mn0%3D%7C0%7C%7C%7C&sdata=a6%2BZHxt5JSAUDfPCBL9Yu%2FBcfG%2ByW%2BF0w3gXdUnRi%2FI%3D&reserved=0>.
