The scope of topics this workshop aims to cover is very broad, and all computer vision approaches in the maritime domain are welcome.
If you can locate yourself on any of the elements in the following diagram, you can definitely submit your work.
However, note that this is a non-exhaustive list, and many more topics may fall in the maritime category.
There are many disciplines that might be of broader application (e.g., general remote sensing). In that case,
you can consider applying your method in a broader field to maritime benchmarks.
Authors are encouraged to submit high-quality, original research works in the following non-exhaustive
areas/topics:
Object detection and tracking
Multi-modal image fusion
Multi-modal learning
Multi-modal vision sensors (IR, depth, Hyper-/Multi-spectral) for UAVs and USVs
(Video) Anomaly detection
Activity recognition
Instance/Semantic segmentation
Scene understanding for drones
Synthetic data generation
Transfer learning and domain adaptation
Remote sensing for detection and classification
Embedded vision algorithms for UAVs and USVs
