Track 1:Bridging Natural Language and Image Processing

Track Chair: Asst. Prof. Dr. Maleerat Maliyaem, King Mongkut's University of Technology North Bangkok, Thailand

The rapid advancement of AI has made the integration of natural language and visual understanding a critical frontier in research. This Track aims to explore cutting-edge research at the intersection of natural language processing (NLP) and computer vision (CV). As multimodal AI systems become increasingly pivotal in real-world applications—from generative AI and robotics to healthcare and human-computer interaction—this workshop will foster discussions on innovative methodologies, challenges, and future directions for unifying linguistic and visual intelligence.

• Semantic consistency and detail control in text-to-image generation
• Quality evaluation and optimization of generative models

Visual Question Answering and Cross-Modal Reasoning
• Design of visual-language integrated question answering systems
• Cross-modal reasoning and logical inference
• Visual question answering techniques for complex scenarios

Multimodal Applications and Datasets
• Multimodal applications in healthcare, education, autonomous driving, and other fields
• Construction, evaluation, and open sharing of multimodal datasets
• Fairness, robustness, and interpretability of multimodal models

Efficiency and Optimization of Multimodal Models
• Lightweighting and acceleration of multimodal models
• Optimization of multimodal models for edge computing
• Compression and quantization techniques for multimodal models
