CALL FOR PAPERS
The 26th MLSP workshop in the series of workshops organized by the IEEE
Signal Processing Society MLSP Technical Committee will present the most
recent and exciting advances in machine learning for signal processing
through keynote talks, tutorials, as well as special and regular
single-track sessions. Prospective authors are invited to submit papers
on relevant algorithms and applications including, but not limited to:
- Bayesian learning and signal processing
- Cognitive information processing
- Deep learning techniques
- Dictionary learning
- Graphical and kernel methods
- Independent component analysis
- Information-theoretic learning
- Learning theory and algorithms
- Pattern recognition and classification
- Bounds on performance
- Subspace and manifold learning
- Sequential learning and decision methods
- Source separation
- Applications including: speech, audio & music, image & video,
biomedical signals & images, communications, bioinformatics, biometrics, systems biology, computational intelligence, genomic signals &
sequences, social networks, games, smart grid, security & privacy

DATA ANALYSIS AND SIGNAL PROCESSING COMPETITION
The competition is organized in conjunction with the workshop.
The goal of the competition is to advance the current state-of-the-art
in theoretical and practical aspects of signal processing domains. The
problems are selected to reflect current trends, evaluate existing
approaches on common benchmarks, and identify critical new areas of
research. Winners will be announced and awards given at the workshop.

SPECIAL SESSIONS
MLSP 2016 seeks proposals for Special Sessions that will address
research in emerging or interdisciplinary areas of particular interest,
not covered already by traditional MLSP sessions.

BEST STUDENT AWARD
The MLSP Best Student Paper Award will be granted to the best paper for
which a student is the principal author and presenter.

PAPER SUBMISSION
Prospective authors are invited to submit a double column paper of up to
six pages using the electronic submission procedure at http://mlsp2016.conwiz.dk. Accepted papers will be published on a password-protected website that will be available during the workshop.
The presented papers will be published in and indexed by IEEE Xplore.
