1st International Workshop on Multimedia Assisted Dietary Management (MADiMa)
In conjunction with the 18th International Conference on Image
Analysis and Processing (ICIAP)

Genova, Italy, September 8th 2015

Website: www.madima.org
Submission Deadline: 18 May 2015

RATIONALE
The prevention of onset and progression of diet-related acute and chronic
diseases (e.g. diabetes, obesity, cardiovascular diseases and cancer)
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 computer vision 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 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 management.

SCOPE
MADiMa2015 aims 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
and management of food intake. The combined use of multimedia, machine
learning algorithms, ubiquitous computing and mobile technologies
permit the development of applications and systems able to monitor the
dietary behavior, analyze food intake, identify eating patterns and
provide feedback to the user towards healthier nutrition. The
researchers will present 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
* 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
* Smartphone technologies for dietary behavioral patterns
* Food multimedia databases
* Evaluation protocols of dietary management systems
* Multimedia assisted self-management of health and disease

PROCEEDINGS
The Proceedings of the MADiMa 2015 Workshop, will be published in the
Springer Lecture Notes in Computer Science (LNCS) series, indexed as
peer-reviewed publication in the Web of Science. Papers will be selected
by a single blind (reviewers are anonymous) review process based on their
originality, timeliness, significance, relevance, and clarity of presentation.

The authors of the accepted papers will be invited to submit an extended
version (at least 40+% different than the workshop versions) of their papers
to a special issue (with open call and peer review) of an international journal
in the involved field.

IMPORTANT DATES
Full paper submission: May 18th, 2015
Notification of acceptance: June 15th, 2015
Camera ready paper submission: June 29th, 2015
Workshop date: September 8th, 2015
