Call for Papers

We invite paper submissions about unpublished work. The papers will go through a double-blind review and, if accepted, they will be published in the ECCV workshop proceedings. All accepted papers will be presented as a poster and as a two-minutes pitch presentation. Additionally, the most outstanding works will be presented as an oral presentation.

The covered topics include but are not limited to:

• Digitization and mobilisation of specimen data from labels and archive cards
• 2D and 3D specimen imaging
• Robotic vision for automated imaging
• Species recognition and AI‑assisted species description
• Phenology estimation from collection specimens
• Benchmarks, datasets, and evaluation protocols
• Vision-based quality control and error detection
• Morphological trait extraction using CV
• Computational challenges for species recognition (CT-scans of micro‑fossils and handwritten insect labels)

We are also launching two Kaggle Challenges, and the authors of the top-performing submissions will be invited to participate in a paper.

Format & Submission

Papers are limited to 14 pages, including figures and tables, in the LNCS style of Springer. Additional pages containing only cited references are allowed.
