The Program Committee of the 2nd International Workshop on Semantic Media Adaptation and Personalization (SMAP 2007), to be held December 17-18, 2007, in London, United Kingdom, invites prospective authors to contribute their ongoing research work to the COST 292 Special Session entitled “Special Session on Analysis for Media Adaptation and Personalization”.

The process of image and video analysis is a challenging task and a growing research field. Combining both low-level features derived from raw multimedia content and high-level semantics in the form of human or automated annotations of audiovisual media and Ontologies has been the ultimate task in current multimedia adaptation research efforts.

This COST 292 Special Session calls for research papers focusing on such analysis of digital media, integrating leading research teams from both academia and industry. We particularly welcome papers that explore local and global media analysis techniques and exploit multimodal adaptation of digital media.

Topics of interest include, but are not limited to:

Papers solicited for the COST 292 Special Session will undergo the same rigorous blind peer reviewing process by anonymous reviewers as all other regular papers of the workshop. IEEE will publish Special Session papers together with regular papers in the workshop’s proceedings. At least one author for each paper in the Special Session must register for SMAP 2007 and present the paper. Papers are expected to be submitted according to the regular paper submission procedure at the SMAP's submission web page. Submission of potential contributions will follow the same important dates as the main workshop.
