Excellence in Artificial Intelligence and Edge Computing
Co-located with the HiPEAC 2025 Conference
20 January 2025
Barcelona, Spain
The convergence of AI and edge computing represents a new era of technological advances, where the immediacy of data processing and the sophistication of AI algorithms lead to new products and services. Industries are rapidly adopting edge AI applications to streamline costs, automate complex processes, enhance decision-making capabilities, and refine operational efficiency. These applications are not just theoretical constructs; they are real-world solutions that are reshaping industries.
This workshop is dedicated to exploring the frontiers of the AI and edge computing synergy, focusing on the development of scalable and robust AI systems. The workshop is organized and supported by the dAIEdge European Network of Excellence on “AI at the Edge”. In order to make the workshop more interactive and lively, there will be a matchmaking session and a demo session. In the latter, participants will be able to show live demos, either on-site or with a video, of their research and results. Participants in any session will be automatically invited to participate in and benefit from dAIEdge’s network of excellence.
Topics of interest include (but are not limited to):
- Edge AI-based applications, use cases, products and services
- Edge AI tools and methodologies
- Computer vision: image classification, object detection, semantic segmentation, etc.
- Edge AI natural language processing, speech recognition and synthesis
- Energy optimization for edge AI devices
- Reconfigurable edge AI
- Optimization and approximation methods and techniques for edge neural networks
- Multimodal learning for edge AI
- Federated learning
- Edge AI accelerators and HW (GPUs, NPUs, TPUs, ASICs, FPGAs, RISC-V, etc.)
- Edge AI hardware-software co-design methods and tools
- Neuromorphic HW Architectures
- Smart connectivity at the edge
- Edge AI for immersive technologies (XR/VR/AR/MR, metaverse/omniverse/multiverse)
- Simulation and analysis techniques for edge AI
- Generative edge AI
- Transformers at the edge: data, hardware, and software engineering challenges
- Trustworthy edge AI (security, privacy, reliability, explainability, interpretability, etc.)
- Edge AI verification, validation and testing
- Benchmarking edge AI models
- Ethical implications of edge AI
Important dates:
- Submission deadline: 15 November 2024
- Notification to authors: 6 December 2024
- Early bird registration (provisional): 25 December 2024
Submissions:
Papers will be reviewed by the workshop's technical program committee according to criteria regarding a submission's quality, relevance to the workshop's topics, and, foremost, its potential to spark discussions about directions, insights, and solutions on the topics mentioned above. Research papers, case studies, position papers and work-in-progress are all welcome. Authors will retain all rights to submit the work elsewhere. Submitted papers will be given the opportunity to participate in the demo session at the end of the day.
Papers should be in double column IEEE format of between 4 and 8 pages including references. Papers should be uploaded as PDF and not anonymized. At least one of the authors must register at the conference and attend the workshop to present the paper if it is accepted. There will be a best paper award with diploma and 300€ (the latter will only be awarded if the authors of the best paper are not part of the dAIEdge Consortium). The selection of the best paper will be made by the PC, it will consider the presentation made at the workshop and it will be irrevocable.
For demos only (without paper submission), see Section ‘Call for Demos’.
Call for Demos:
The demo session will take place at the end of the day. The demos will be either on-site or through a pre-recorded video (with voiceover). Demo proposers do not need to submit a paper to the workshop. The demo should be, in any case, related to the topics of the workshop, and should not last more than 20 minutes.
If the number of demos submitted is too high the program committee will make a selection, prioritizing on-site demos.
There will be a best demo award with diploma and 300€ (the latter will only be awarded if the authors of the best demo are not part of the dAIEdge Consortium). The selection of the best demo will be made by the PC, it will consider the presentation made at the workshop and it will be irrevocable.
