We are pleased to invite you to submit research papers to the 14th LVA/ICA which will be held at the University of Surrey, Guildford, UK, from the 2nd to the 6th of July, 2018. The conference is organized by the Centre for Vision, Speech and Signal Processing (CVSSP); and the Institute of Sound Recording (IoSR). Authors should register papers by submitting the title and abstract by ** Sunday, 4 February 2018 (extended) ** The complete version of the paper must be uploaded by ** Wednesday, 7 February 2018 ** The proceedings will be published in Springer-Verlag's Lecture Notes in Computer Science (LNCS). =3D=3D Keynote Speakers =3D=3D - Orly Alter Scientific Computing & Imaging Institute and Huntsman Cancer Institute, University of Utah, USA - Andrzej Cichocki Brain Science Institute, RIKEN, Japan - Tuomas Virtanen Laboratory of Signal Processing Tampere University of Technology, Finland =3D=3D Topics =3D=3D Prospective authors are invited to submit original papers (8-10 pages in LNCS format) in areas related to latent variable analysis, independent component analysis and signal separation, including but not limited to: - Theory: * sparse coding, dictionary learning * statistical and probabilistic modeling * detection, estimation and performance criteria and bounds * causality measures * learning theory * convex/nonconvex optimization tools * sketching and censoring for large scale data - Models: * general linear or nonlinear models of signals and data * discrete, continuous, flat, or hierarchical models * multilinear models * time-varying, instantaneous, convolutive, noiseless, noisy, over-complete, or under-complete mixtures * Low-rank models, graph models, online models - Algorithms: * estimation, separation, identification, detection, blind and semi-blind methods, non-negative matrix factorization, tensor decomposition, adaptive and recursive estimation * feature selection * time-frequency and wavelet based analysis * complexity analysis * Non-conventional signals (e.g. graph signals, quantum sources) - Applications: * speech and audio separation, recognition, dereverberation and denoising * auditory scene analysis * image segmentation, separation, fusion, classification, texture analysis * biomedical signal analysis, imaging, genomic data analysis, brain-computer interface - Emerging related topics: * sparse learning * deep learning * social networks * data mining * artificial intelligence * objective and subjective performance evaluation =3D=3D Venue =3D=3D LVA/ICA 2018 will be held at the University of Surrey, Guildford, in the South East of England, UK.
