[Call for Ongoing Work:] A new initiative in MMSP 2012 is the On-going Work Track, which aims to present research that is of interest to the general multimedia signal processing community but immature to warrant a full paper.
Authors are invited to submit a 2-page description of new research ideas and on-going projects from all areas related to multimedia signal processing to MMSP 2012. For details, please review our call-for-ongoing-work.


MMSP 2012 is the 14th international workshop on multimedia signal processing. The workshop is organized by the Multimedia Signal Processing Technical Committee of the IEEE Signal Processing Society. The focus theme for this workshop is media-sharing social networks. MMSP 2012 aims to bring researchers from different areas (signal processing, information management, computer sciences, and psycho-sociology) together to explore the impact of multimodal signal and information processing for the emerging research field of media-sharing social networks, and ultimately to design multimedia systems with more efficient, secure, context-aware, and personalized services.

Topics of interest for submission include, but are not limited to the following topics, covering the general scope of multimedia signal processing:

  • Behaviour dynamics, social intelligence and social cognition
    • Behaviour modelling and analysis in social networks
    • Trust and belief in social contexts
    • Securing mechanisms and privacy in social networks
    • Cognitive modelling, machine learning/understanding
  • Multimedia Systems and Emerging Applications
    • Social media networks
    • Virtual classroom and distance learning
    • E-Health and telemedicine
    • Mobile, sensor, or human networks
    • Human computer interaction
    • Multimedia hardware and software
  • Multimedia Signal Processing
    • Multimedia communications and networking
    • Multimedia database and digital libraries: multimedia indexing and retrieval, multimedia representation and search
    • Multimedia content analysis
    • Multimedia security and forensics
    • Multimedia interaction
    • Virtual reality and 3D imaging

Top 10% Paper Award

This award is granted to as many as 10% of the total paper submissions, and is open to all accepted papers. Papers will be evaluated based on originality, technical contribution, and presentation quality during the workshop.

On-going Work Track

Authors are invited to submit a 2-page description of new research ideas and on-going projects from all areas related to multimedia signal processing to MMSP 2012. The On-going Work Track aims to present research that is not mature enough to warrant a full paper but which would be of interest to the general community. Accepted papers will be presented as posters and included in the digital media of the workshop.

On-going Work Paper Submission: June 30 2012
Author Notification: July 31 2012
