Call for Papers

As music and rhythm are the heartbeats of life, signal and information processing is the heartbeat of technology development for our daily life. Having both of them capture the hearts and souls of all the attendees is the goal of the 42th International Conference on Acoustics, Speech, and Signal Processing (ICASSP 2017) which will be held in Hilton Conference Centre, at the Jazz music capital (New Orleans, USA) on March 5-9, 2017. ICASSP is the world’s largest and most comprehensive technical conference focused on signal processing and its applications. The conference not only introduces new developments in the field but also provides an engaging forum to exchange ideas, and does so both for researchers and developers. The theme of the ICASSP 2017 is “The Internet of Signals” which is the real technology and world behind the Internet of Things. The conference will feature world-class international speakers, tutorials, exhibits, lectures and poster sessions from around the world. Topics include but are not limited to:

Subjects

  • Audio and acoustic signal processing
  • Sensor array & multichannel signal processing
  • Bio-imaging and biomedical signal processing
  • Signal processing education
  • Design & implementation of signal processing systems
  • Signal processing for communication & networking
  • Image, video & multidimensional signal processing
  • Signal processing theory & methods
  • Industry technology tracks
  • Signal processing for Big Data
  • Information forensics and security
  • The Internet of Things & RFID
  • Machine learning for signal processing
  • Speech processing
  • Multimedia signal processing
  • Spoken language processing
  • Remote Sensing and signal processing
  • Signal Processing for Brain Machine Interface
  • Signal Processing for Smart Systems
  • Signal Processing for Cyber Security
  • Computational Imaging

Submission of Papers

Prospective authors are invited to submit full-length papers, with up to four pages for technical content including figures and possible references, and with one additional optional 5th page containing only references. A selection of best papers will be made by the ICASSP 2017 committee upon recommendations from Technical Committees.

Special Sessions

Special session proposals should be submitted by July 11th, 2016. Proposals for special sessions must include a topical title, rationale, session outline, contact information for the session chair, a list of authors, and a tentative title and abstract. Additional information can be found at the ICASSP 2017 website  (www.ieee-icassp2017.org)

Tutorials

Brief proposals for tutorials should be submitted by September 15th, 2016. Proposal for tutorials must include a title, an outline of the tutorial and its motivation, a two-page CV of the presenter(s), and a short description of the material to be covered. Tutorials will be held on March 5th, 2017.

M.Sc./Ph.D. Forum

The forum will provide an opportunity for M.Sc./Ph.D. students in the fields of ICASSP 2017 to present their thesis/dissertation research (that are completed in the last year or will be completed during  2017), including work in progress within the topics of interest for ICASSP 2017.  To encourage interaction among the M.Sc./Ph.D. students and researchers from academia, industry, and government, the forum will be organized as a poster session. A two-page paper on the thesis work will appear in the conference proceedings.

Signal Processing Letters

Authors of IEEE Signal Processing Letters (SPL) papers will be given the opportunity to present their work at ICASSP 2017, subject to space availability and approval by the ICASSP Technical Program Chairs. SPL papers published between January 1st, 2016 and December 31st, 2016 are eligible for presentation at ICASSP 2017. Because they are already peer-reviewed and published, SPL papers presented at ICASSP 2017 will neither be reviewed nor included in the ICASSP proceedings. Registration for SPL papers will open on September 26th, 2016 on the conference webpages and they will need to be finalized by November 21st, 2016. Approved requests for presentation must have one author/presenter register for the conference.

Demos

ICASSP 2017 offers a perfect stage to showcase innovative ideas in all technical areas of interest at ICASSP. All demo sessions will be highly interactive and visible. Please refer to the ICASSP 2017 website for additional information regarding demo submission.
