Call for Papers: BEYOND DETECTION Workshop at ICIP 2026
We are pleased to announce a call for papers for the satellite workshop “Beyond Detection: Uncertainty, Quality, and Multi-Source Reasoning for Operational Multimedia Forensics”, organized in conjunction with ICIP 2026.
The workshop focuses on advancing trustworthy and operational multimedia forensics systems. Contributions are encouraged to go beyond binary fake/not-fake decisions by addressing confidence estimation, robustness to real-world distortions, multi-source evidence fusion, and evaluation under realistic unseen conditions.
The workshop will be held alongside IEEE International Conference on Image Processing (ICIP 2026) in Tampere, Finland.
Key Information
- Date: September 13, 2026 (to be confirmed by ICIP organizers)
- Location: Tampere, Finland
