Intelligent Surveillance and Monitoring Systems
AI Across Distributed and Multimodal Environments
Workshop @ AVSS 2026
Recent advances in artificial intelligence, embedded processing, and networked sensing are transforming the way surveillance and monitoring systems are designed and deployed. Modern applications operate across heterogeneous environments — urban, industrial, environmental, aerial, and maritime — requiring robust perception, real-time decision-making, and seamless coordination between distributed sensing nodes.
This workshop aims to bring together researchers and practitioners working on AI-driven surveillance and monitoring systems, with a focus on multimodal sensing, edge intelligence, scalable architectures, and reliable deployment in real-world conditions. Emphasis will be placed on systems that operate under practical constraints such as limited power, intermittent connectivity, latency requirements, and privacy regulations.
The workshop encourages discussion across the full pipeline — from sensing and perception to inference, orchestration, and actionable alert generation — highlighting both methodological advances and field-deployed systems.
The topics above highlight the main focus of the workshop; submissions on related topics are also welcome and will be evaluated by the reviewers.
We invite submissions on AI-driven surveillance and monitoring systems, spanning theory, methods, and real-world applications.
Full Papers (6 pages including references): Presenting mature and complete research with substantial contributions and validated results.
Submissions must adhere to the IEEE double-column format and are limited to six pages, including figures, tables, and references.
The paper submission templates are available on IEEE Manuscript Templates for Conference Proceedings.

The Microsoft CMT service was used for managing the peer-reviewing process for this conference. This service was provided for free by Microsoft and they bore all expenses, including costs for Azure cloud services as well as for software development and support.
The workshop will take place on August 31, 2026. The detailed schedule will be finalized after the paper selection process. The current program is tentative and subject to change.
