ICCV 2023 Workshop on Adversarial RObustness in the Real World (AROW)

Welcome to the 4th Workshop on Adversarial Robustness In the Real World (AROW)

ICCV 2023, Paris

Recent deep-learning-based methods achieve great performance on various vision applications. However, insufficient robustness on adversarial cases limits real-world applications of deep-learning- based methods. AROW workshop aims to explore adversarial examples, as well as, evaluate and improve the adversarial robustness of computer vision systems.

Overview


Computer vision systems achieve advanced performance, however, research in adversarial machine learning shows concurrent vision systems are less robust in comparison to human vision systems. Perturbation-based adversarial examples achieve a significant impact on vision systems accuracy but remain a gap toward real-world scenarios. While recent works demonstrate deep-learning-based methods are also vulnerable to those more real-world adversarial examples, e.g., partial occlusions, atmospheric changes, and style changes. Such vulnerability potentially limits the real-world usage of computer vision systems. Discovering, evaluating, and defending those real-world adversarial examples helps to understand and improve the robustness of computer vision systems, which can help the deployment of computer vision systems in safety-critical applications. This workshop aims to bring together researchers from various fields, including adversarial machine learning, robust vision, and explainable AI, to discuss recent research and future directions for adversarial robustness and explainability, with a particular focus on real-world scenarios.

The topics involved in the workshop include but are not limited to:

Publication Process and Author Guide


Please follow the ICCV2023 author policies, as well as the ICCV2023 submission guidelines. It is also suggested to check the ICCV2023 Author FAQs. We accept two types of submissions, i.e., long papers and extended abstracts.

Long papers in the AROW workshop will be published by IEEE/CVF. The following guidelines must be respected:

We also accept extended abstracts. Note, different from the long papers:

Information for Presenters

  1. Invited talk

    Each workshop room will be equipped with A/V systems for presentation, including a HDMI cable to connect one machine (speaker's PC or Mac), 2 microphones on the podium, 2 wireless microphones, and video projectors. The aspect ratio of the screen will be 16:9. Please encourage presenters to attend the workshop in person and communicate with participants at the venue. If the presenters are not able to attend in person, remote presentation is also allowed. In this case, no registration is needed for invited speakers. Note, however, that remote presenters with IEEE/CVF workshop papers must have (at least one-day) workshops/tutorials pass registration. Please check out the authors note on the registration page: https://iccv2023.thecvf.com/registration-81.php

  2. Poster presentation (95.4 cm x 138.8 cm, portrait format)

    Workshop poster sessions will be held in each workshop room, and poster panels will be provided and arranged inside the room. Note that the poster size for workshops is different from that for the main conference. The workshop poster panel size will be 95.4 cm x 138.8 cm (WxH, aspect ratio 0.69:1, portrait format). A0 paper in portrait would well fit the panel by some margin. Please make sure to notify this information to the workshop poster presenters. There will be an on-site printing service from which you can collect your printed poster. You will receive more information about the on-site printing service in a separate email later.

  3. Workshop streaming

    If you plan to live-stream your workshop, a Wi-Fi network enough for streaming will be provided for each workshop room. However, we do not provide technical support for workshop streaming, and thus streaming of workshops should be managed by each organizer.

  4. Workshop Rooms

    The workshop rooms are already announced on the ICCV webpage.

    We have updated some initial room assignments based on the registration survey, so please double-check your room code, although you have done it before.

    Each room of East or West, whose code starts with E or W, accommodates 160~190 seats. It will be equipped with A/V systems, including an HDMI cable to connect one machine (speaker's PC or Mac), 2 microphones on the podium, 2 wireless microphones, and video projectors (8K lumens). The screen's aspect ratio will be 16:9. One technician is assigned to two rooms to help you set up A/V systems.

    Each room of South, whose code starts with S, has 570 seats. It will also be equipped with A/V systems, including an HDMI cable to connect one machine (speaker's PC or Mac), 2 microphones on the podium, 4 wireless microphones, and video projectors (12K lumens). The screen's aspect ratio will be 16:9. One technician is assigned to help you set up A/V systems.

    Some workshops are assigned to the plenary room P01, the largest room, which will be provided with better equipment than the South rooms. Note that the number of seats in each room may decrease to get space for poster panels.




Accepted Long Papers

In total 12 long papers are accepted. They are still going through the publication process with IEEE.




Accepted Extended Abstracts

In total 6 extended abstracts are accepted. PDFs are hosted on this website.
