VISAPP 2027 — 22nd International Conference on Computer Vision Theory and Applications
by INSTICC — Institute for Systems and Technologies of Information, Control and Communication
Four computer-vision programme areas in Valletta, co-located with four sibling AI, optics and robotics conferences.
About This Event
VISAPP 2027, the 22nd International Conference on Computer Vision Theory and Applications, runs 26–28 February 2027 in Valletta, Malta, and is carried on the International Association for Pattern Recognition's official conference schedule. The technical programme is organised into four areas — Foundations and Representation Learning; Recognition and Detection; Low-Level Vision and Computational Imaging; and 3D Vision, Motion, Robotics, Application and Systems — plus a special session on Affective Computing for Embodied and Social Systems. VISAPP is held in conjunction with ICAART 2027, PHOTOPTICS 2027, ROBOVIS 2027 and GRIVAPP 2027, so a single trip covers computer vision, agents and artificial intelligence, optics, robotics and graphics. Submission runs in two stages: regular papers close 15 September 2026 and position or second-stage regular papers close 22 October 2026, with workshop, special session, tutorial, demo and panel proposals all due 2 October 2026.

Why Attend
For an engineering leader whose product depends on vision — inspection, AR, autonomous systems, document or medical imaging — VISAPP is an unusually efficient week because four sibling conferences share the venue. You can move between computer vision, AI agents, optics, robotics and graphics without booking four trips, which matters a great deal when you are still scoping which of those disciplines your roadmap actually needs. The four programme areas map cleanly onto build decisions: representation learning for what to pre-train, recognition and detection for what can ship today, computational imaging for sensor choices, and 3D and motion for embodied systems. The two-stage submission window also makes it a realistic venue at which to get applied industrial work reviewed.
Event Features
- ✓Programme area: Foundations and Representation Learning
- ✓Programme area: Recognition and Detection
- ✓Programme area: Low-Level Vision and Computational Imaging
- ✓Programme area: 3D Vision, Motion, Robotics, Application and Systems
- ✓Special session: Affective Computing for Embodied and Social Systems (ACESS)
- ✓Co-located with ICAART 2027, PHOTOPTICS 2027, ROBOVIS 2027 and GRIVAPP 2027
- ✓Satellite events: workshop, special session, tutorial, demo and panel proposals, all due 2 October 2026
What Makes This Unique
- ★Four distinct programme areas rather than one undifferentiated track, running from representation-learning theory through to applied 3D, motion and robotics systems.
- ★Co-located with four sibling conferences — ICAART, PHOTOPTICS, ROBOVIS and GRIVAPP 2027 — so one week in Valletta spans vision, AI agents, optics, robotics and graphics instead of four separate trips.
- ★Two-stage submission, in September and October 2026, plus a separate abstracts track in December — a genuine second window that most single-deadline conferences do not offer.
- ★Listed on the IAPR conference schedule, so it sits inside the international pattern-recognition community rather than standing alone as a commercial event.
- ★Runs a dedicated special session on Affective Computing for Embodied and Social Systems (ACESS), with its own December 2026 submission deadline.
