Call for Symposium Proposals

We invite Symposium proposals for the fifth IEEE Global Conference on Signal and Information Processing (GlobalSIP) which will be
held in Montreal, Quebec, Canada on November 14-16, 2017. GlobalSIP is a flagship IEEE Signal Processing Society conference. It
focuses on signal and information processing with an emphasis on up-and-coming signal processing themes. The conference features
world-class plenary speeches, distinguished Symposium talks, tutorials, exhibits, oral and poster sessions, and panels. GlobalSIP is
comprised of co-located General Symposium and symposia selected based on responses to the call-for-symposia proposals. Topics
include but are not limited to:

o forensics and security
o finance
o energy and power systems (e.g., smart grid)
o genomics and bioengineering (physiological,
pharmacological and behavioral)
o neural networks, including deep learning
Image and video processing
Selected topics in speech processing and human
language technologies

*
