ISR which also comprises the European Inter-Disciplinary Centre of Excellence in Socio-ethical Video/Data Analytics, each year organises a number of thematic clustering research workshops and special sessions co-located with major conferences. This year our IEEE DSP2013 Special Session will open up new perspectives on ways and means whereby privacy-respecting compliance can best be aided through (sub)-symbolic processing, pattern recognition algorithms, and techniques that enhance the privacy protection as an inherent property of the Video/Data Analysis Process.
