Call for Papers


We invite students and researchers from developing countries, regardless of their current location, to submit their work to the Computer Vision for Developing Countries (CV4DC) workshop. We are interested in new ideas, ongoing research, as well as work that has been previously published whithin 1 year or is under consideration elsewhere.

Submissions can include both innovative algorithms and practical applications. While the presenting author does not need to be the first author, we encourage highlighting contributions from researchers in developing countries, particularly the presenting author, in the abstract. Although the workshop primarily aims to showcase researchers from developing countries, participation is open to all.

Extended Abstracts: Submissions should be between four (4) and seven (7) pages, excluding references. These can cover work in progress, preliminary research, studies published within 1 year, or any relevant computer vision applications. Accepted papers in this category will not be archived in the ACCV workshop proceedings, allowing future publication in other venues.

Full Length Papers: Up to fourteen (14) pages excluding references. These can cover work in progress, studies published within 1 year, or any relevant computer vision applications. Accepted papers in this category will not be archived in the ACCV workshop proceedings, allowing future publication in other venues.

Submission Guidelines

All submissions must adhere to the guidelines provided by the ACCV 2024 Author Kit. Papers must clearly state the research problem, motivation, and technical contributions. Submissions should be self-contained, including all necessary figures, tables, and references.

Authors are welcome to submit multiple papers, provided that each submission presents distinct, original contributions.

Authors of accepted submissions will be required to present their work during a poster session. A select few will be invited to deliver a 10-15 minute oral presentation.

Attendance Awards

We are pleased to offer travel grants to a select number of authors with accepted papers. The exact amount of each grant will be determined based on the number of applications received and will be disclosed following the paper acceptance notifications. These grants are intended to help offset travel expenses related to attending the workshop, including flights and conference registration. Please note that the grant may not cover all incurred expenses. Recipients will be required to submit receipts for travel expenses to receive their award.

Priority for travel grants will be given to authors from developing countries. However, we regret that we cannot guarantee grants for all accepted papers. The final grant amounts will depend on the volume of applications and will be communicated after the acceptance notifications.

New Updates: In collaboration with ACCV, we are pleased to announce that free registration will be available to 50 attendees from the following countries: Afghanistan, Bhutan, Cambodia, Indonesia, Kazakhstan, North Korea, Kyrgyzstan, Laos, Mongolia, Myanmar, Nepal, Philippines, Tajikistan, Timor Leste, Turkmenistan, and Uzbekistan. Authors from these countries who wish to attend the workshop must apply for the grant. The application process is simple and requires only a brief statement (a few paragraphs) or a CV.

Please send your application (CV or brief statement) to cv4dc@googlegroups.com.
