Call for Papers

Recent advances in neuroimaging and machine learning provide an exceptional opportunity for investigators and physicians to discover complex relationships between brain, behaviors, and mental and neurological disorders. The MLCN 2019 workshop (https://mlcnws.com), as a satellite event of MICCAI 2019 (https://www.miccai2019.org), aims to bring together researchers in both theory and application from various fields in domains such as e.g. machine learning, neuroimaging, predictive clinical neuroscience, etc. Topics of interests include, but are not limited to:

• Transfer learning in clinical neuroimaging
• Model stability in transfer learning
• Data prerequisites for successful transfer learning
• Domain adaptation in neuroimaging
• Data harmonization across sites
• Data pooling – practical issues
• Cross-domain learning in neuroimaging
• Interpretability for transfer learning
• Unsupervised methods for domain adaptation
• Multi-site data analysis, from preprocessing to modeling
• Big data in clinical neuroimaging
• Scalable machine learning methods
• Benefits, problems, and solutions of working with very large datasets

SUBMISSION PROCESS:

The workshop seeks high quality, original, and unpublished work on algorithms, theory, and applications of machine learning in clinical neuroimaging related to big data, transfer learning, and data harmonization. Papers should be submitted electronically in Springer Lecture Notes in Computer Science (LCNS) style (https://www.springer.com/gp/computer-science/lncs/conference-proceedings-guidelines) with up to 8-pages and using the CMT system at https://cmt3.research.microsoft.com/MLCN2019. The MLCN workshop uses a double-blind review process in the evaluation phase, thus authors must ensure anonymous submissions. Accepted papers will be published in a joint proceeding with the MICCAI 2019 conference.  

IMPORTANT DATES:

• Paper submission deadline: July 14, 2019 (23:59 PST)

• Notification of Acceptance: August 5, 2019

• Camera-ready Submission: August 12, 2019

• Workshop Date: October 13, 2019
