Call For Papers (apologies for multiple copies)
===================================================

The 8th International Workshop on Multimedia Assisted Dietary
Management (MADiMa2023) is organized in conjunction with the 31st ACM
International Conference in Multimedia (ACMM2023).

Website: www.madima.org
Place: Ottawa, Canada
Date: October 29th or November 3rd, 2023
Submission Deadline: 21st July 2023

RATIONALE
=========
The prevention of onset and progression of diet-related acute and
chronic diseases requires reliable and intuitive dietary management.
The need for accurate, automatic, real-time, and personalized dietary
advice has been recently complemented by the advances in AI, computer
vision, wearable, and smartphone technologies, permitting the
development of the first mobile food multimedia content analysis
applications. The proposed solutions rely on the analysis of
multimedia content captured by wearable sensors, smartphone cameras,
barcode scanners, RFID readers and IR sensors, along with already
established nutritional and recipe databases and often require some
user input. In the field of nutritional management, multimedia not
only bridges diverse information and communication technologies, but
also computer science with medicine, nutrition, and dietetics. This
confluence brings new challenges and opportunities on dietary
monitoring, assessment, and management.

SCOPE
=====
The main scope of MADiMa2023 is to bring together researchers from the
diverse fields of engineering, computer science and nutrition who
investigate the use of information and communication technologies for
better monitoring, assessment, and management of food intake. The
combined use of multimedia, machine learning algorithms, ubiquitous
computing and mobile technologies permits the development of
applications and systems able to monitor dietary behavior, analyze
food intake, identify eating patterns, and provide feedback to the
user towards healthier nutrition. The researchers will present and
demonstrate their latest progress and discuss novel ideas in the
field. Besides the technologies used, emphasis will be given to the
precise problem definition, the available nutritional databases, the
need for benchmarking multimedia databases of packed and unpacked food
and the evaluation protocols.

TOPICS
======
Topics of interest include (but are not limited to) the following:
- Ubiquitous and mobile computing for dietary assessment
- Computer vision for food detection, segmentation, and recognition
- Deep learning for food analysis
- 3D reconstruction for food portion estimation
- Augmented reality for food portion estimation
- Wearable sensors for food intake detection
- Computerized food composition (nutrients, allergens) analysis
- Multimedia technologies for eating monitoring
- Food image analysis and social media
- Smartphone technologies for dietary behavioral patterns
- Food multimedia databases
- Evaluation protocols of dietary management systems
- Multimedia assisted self-management of health and disease
- ICT technologies for tackling mal- and undernutrition
- Dietary monitoring systems for Low- and Middle-Income Country (LMIC) settings
- Vision techniques for food quality check
- ICT for personalization of dietary advice
- Personalized dietary recommendation systems
