The ICPR 2024 Organizing Committee invites proposals for tutorials in conjunction with the 27th International Conference on Pattern Recognition, which is to be held at Kolkata, India during December 1-5, 2024. We seek tutorials on core techniques, application areas and emerging research topics that are of interest within the ICPR community. An effective and informative tutorial should provide a broad introduction to the chosen research area as well as in-depth coverage on selected advanced topics.

Proposals that focus exclusively on the presenters' own work or commercial presentations are not acceptable.

To propose a tutorial, a PDF file containing the information outlined below must be submitted by email to icpr2024tutorials@gmail.com.

The proposal should contain the following information:

• Proposed tutorial title
• Names, titles, affiliations, emails, and brief bio sketches of the people delivering the tutorial
• Name and email of the lead person for communication and responsibility
• Preference for half- or full-day event (the latter requires a brief justification)
• Tutorial description with list of topics to be covered, along with a brief outline and important details; any innovative pedagogy employed; any hands-on participation, etc.
• Expected target audience, in terms of both composition and estimated number of attendees.
• List of citations and/or URLs to relevant publications and/or products of the tutorial presenters and other relevant related work.
• A description of how this proposal relates to tutorials/short courses appearing at ICPR (and also other major related conferences) within the last two editions.
• A description of and/or links to any planned materials or resources to be distributed to attendees.

Each proposal will be assessed based on its scientific merit, proposed structure, overall relevance, and how it complements the main conference.
