Topics

This workshop will feature the most recent artificial intelligence advances for detection, explanation and accommodation of anomalies and novelties. It targets both academic researchers and industrial practitioners from data mining, machine learning and computer vision communities, and solicits original research on but not limited to the following topics.

* Detection/accommodation of anomalies/novelties in different types of data

- Anomaly/novelty detection

- Out-of-distribution example detection

- Adversarial example recognition and detection

- Curiosity learning

- Open-set recognition and adaption

* Deep learning for anomaly/novelty detection/explanation/accommodation

- Feature learning specifically designed for anomalies/novelties

- End-to-end anomaly/novelty recognition/detection/adaption

* Anomaly/novelty-related theories/foundation

- Mathematical formalization

- Optimization

- Generalization bounds and learnability

- Anomaly/novelty explanation

* Relevant applications

- Fraud and risk analysis in finance and insurance

- Disease detection and diagnosis in healthcare

- Intrusion/malware detection in cybersecurity

- Malicious activity detection in social networks

- Misinformation and fake information detection

- Event detection in video surveillance

- Safety analysis in AI systems

Submission Instructions

We invite three types of submissions, including original research paper (9 pages plus references), demo/short paper (6 pages plus references), visionary papers (6 pages plus references). Submissions must be in PDF format, written in English, and formatted according to the new Standard ACM Conference Proceedings Template available at https://www.acm.org/publications/proceedings-template . All papers will be peer reviewed in single-blind and assessed based on their novelty, technical quality, potential impact, clarity, and reproducibility. All the papers are required to be submitted via EasyChair system at https://easychair.org/conferences/?conf=andea2022.

We commit to a non-archival workshop, and dual submission is allowed. All accepted papers will be made available on the workshop official website.
