The British Machine Vision Conference (BMVC) is one of the major international conferences on computer vision and related areas. It is organised by the British Machine Vision Association (BMVA). The 34th BMVC will now be an in-person event from 20th—24th November 2023. Our local in-person meeting will be held at P&J Live, Aberdeen, UK.

Authors are invited to submit full-length high-quality papers in image processing, computer vision, machine learning and related areas for BMVC 2023. Submitted papers will be refereed on their originality, presentation, empirical results, and quality of evaluation. Accepted papers will be included in the conference proceedings published and DOI-indexed by BMVA. Past proceedings can be found online: here.

Please note that BMVC is a single-track meeting with oral and poster presentations. The abstract submission deadline is mid-May 2023, and the paper submission deadline is at the end of May 2023. Submission instructions will be available on the BMVC 2023 website. Submitted papers should not exceed 9 pages (references are excluded, but appendices are included).

Topics include, but are not limited to:

    2D object recognition
    3D computer vision
    3D object recognition
    Action and behavior recognition

    “Brave new ideas”

Papers submitted under the “Brave new ideas” subject area are expected to move away from incremental benchmark gains. Proposed ideas should be radically different from the current strand of research or propose a novel problem.
