We invite contributions that explore the intersection of ML, CV, and biological sciences.
The workshop aims to bring together researchers from diverse backgrounds to share insights, methodologies, and applications in Imageomics.
We welcome papers on a broad range of topics, including but not limited to:
Foundation and Representation Learning for Biological Vision: build large-scale models that embed images and biological information (e.g., species names, trait ontologies) into a shared space.
Data Standards, Benchmarks, and Open Resources: biological datasets that pose challenges to existing machine learning methods; trait-annotated image benchmarks, evaluation leaderboards, etc.
Learning under Scarcity and Long-Tailed Distributions: few-/zero-shot recognition of rare or newly discovered species; learning for unbalanced classification.
Trustworthy, Explainable, and Uncertainty-Aware Bio-Vision: saliency maps tied to morphological and functional concepts; calibrated confidence for decision-making.
Object Detection, Tracking, and Fine-grained Classification: localization and recognition of objects in images and videos.
3D Modeling, Temporal and Behavioral Reasoning from Video: recognition of behavioral states in long video sequences.
Hierarchy-Aware Learning: embeddings and objectives that respect hierarchical information, such as evolutionary trees or taxonomic labels.
Multi-sensor Fusion: Combine the representations of images, sounds, DNA, field notes, etc.
Human-in-the-Loop and Citizen-Science Annotation: active-learning pipelines for experts and volunteers, balancing annotation cost and data quality.
We also encourage submissions related to broader biological topics, such as
biomedical, evolution, conservation, taxonomy, and biodiversity.

Important Dates
Paper Submission Deadline: August 29th, 2025. 11:59 PM AOE
Notification of Acceptance: September 22nd, 2025.
Camera-Ready Submission: TBD
Workshop Date: TBD (December 6th or 7th, 2025)
We strongly recommend following the standard timeline to allow sufficient time for preparation and travel arrangements.
However, we also understand that some authors may need additional time to finalize their work.
Therefore, we are introducing a second round of submissions for those who wish to submit their work later.
Second Round Paper Submission Deadline: September 28th, 2025. 11:59 PM AOE
Second Round Notification of Acceptance: October 8th, 2025.
